✨Hello and welcome!
BODY NEVER LIES.

​During all of my sessions I provide highly skilled, intelligent therapeutic touch and hold safe space, so you may: let go of tension, emotional stress, and pain; increase the vitality and energy available to you. 

I listen to Your Goals first, and then we work together on bringing neuro-lymphatic balance to your body. I pay special attention to toning your nervous system via vagus nerve activation techniques which are safe and can be used at home. Vagus nerve is essential in healing and reducing inflammation and stress.

I advise you come in with a somewhat EMPTY stomach for your session.

NEURO balance: For the muscles to produce sophisticated physical movements (lifting a cup of coffee or lifting a hundred pounds are both complex), there has to be a clear pathway between your nervous system and the muscles; the brain has to send coherent messages that the muscles have to receive and then interpret into the specific movement you want them to perform. That is why you have about 100 trillion neurons throughout the body involved in controlling behavior (Boahen, 2005)!
​Intelligent muscle testing during the session helps to first—see the quality of your messaging systems; second—work on improving them. 
​Your brain is a river; Not a rock! 70% of your brain synaptic connections change every day, and my job is to help them change for the better.
​
LYMPHATIC balance: It is my opinion that illness—especially chronic—results from an inflammation which is a presence of an unwanted substance (for example, toxins, acid, mucus) and/or a lack of a needed substance. As a massage therapist I do not prescribe anything to my clients to supplement with, what I do is aid you in getting rid of the unwanted substances e.g helping you to DETOX your body, primarily drain often congested lymph nodes that are pressing against your arteries and veins diminishing the delivery of blood and oxygen to the tissue. I work with your systems to help them function with more ease. I rely on a number of techniques to do that, using a unique approach I developed over the years as well as proven lymph drainage methods I learned from Academy of Lymphatic Studies (Vodder Technique).

BIO-MAT: In my session, I use FDA approved, thermo therapeutic heated pad—the bio-mat. Its far infrared waves are known to temporarily increase circulation and therefore expedite healing process in the tissues. When the fluid systems of the body—lymph and blood—flow with more ease, they filter the waste products (lymph) and deliver nutrients (blood) at a faster and more effective rate. Lymph is known to be a very slow moving fluid (4oz per hour), LD massage combined with the healing waves of bio-mat helps to gently enhance that flow.
NOTE: If a client is coming to a session after surgery and/or if a client has a lot of swelling, I do not use heated pad.
​
CANCELLATION POLICY:
As a small business owner, I get very affected by same day cancellations!
I request a 24 hour cancellation notice, so I can fill your spot.
Please read carefully:
REGARDLESS of the reason (medical, familial or otherwise)
—If a client simply no shows or cancels less than 6 hours before their appointment time, their credit card will be charged the full rate of 75 minute massage at $215.
—If a client cancels within 6-23 hours of their appointment time, their credit card will be charged a late cancel fee of $100.
​​
CURRENTLY I WORK WITH MODIFICATIONS AS PER CITY GUIDELINES:
*FDA APPROVED AIR PURIFIER IS CONSTANTLY ON HIGH SPEED.
* TABLE AND FACE CRADLE  HAVE A WATERPROOF BASE-COVER WHICH GETS SANITIZED AFTER EACH SESSION.
*ALL THE NONPOROUS SURFACES ARE SANITIZED BEFORE AND AFTER EACH SESSION, 

✨I work with different levels of muscular pain—from low to moderate, from acute to chronic—and put additional focus on reducing anxiety and stress to balance the nervous system with the help of Neuro-Muscular Reprogramming, Manual Lymph Drainage, Restorative Breathing, and Anti-Stress techniques.

✨After studying for 2000+ hours and working in the field for the last fourteen years, I created my own blend of massage—intuitive, specific, detail-oriented, and grounded in my continuing learning of human anatomy.
In my practice, I put an additional emphasis on Lymphatic Drainage, helping your body to go through a gentle detox--lymphatic system and immune system are one and the same.

✨Between work and school (I am getting a degree in psychology), I post short and effective video techniques to educate my clients on what they can do on their own to help their bodies heal. These videos can be found on my breath.for.health Instagram account.

✨I recently started to teach self-help classes to people near and far aimed at educating on what to do at home to improve neuro muscular function, effectively drain lymph, and reduce stress and pain.

✨ To help my clients reduce their mental stress, I recorded a few guided meditations: they can be found on InsightTimer app or on my Youtube channel. These meditations may be helpful to anyone who wishes to learn how to shift into the state of Relaxed Alertness, and possibly ease the body aches and pain caused by anxiety and stress. 
The ability to "switch gears" between the states of stress and relaxation is key to having a balanced life in the fast-paced and unpredictable world we live in.

BODYWORK

Mila has been studying and practicing various forms of bodywork since 2009. 
​
Since 2013, Mila has been practicing Neuro Muscular Reprogramming (NMR) style of bodywork—a system of diagnosing and treating the imbalances in the neuro-muscular system via muscle testing with a light to moderate participation from a client.
This dialogue between the therapist and the client`s organizational intelligence allows for the change to be integrated into the nervous system on a far deeper level than a basic relaxation massage. 
"Doing the right things in the right order gets the fastest results,"
Jocelyn Olivier, founder of NMR.

Having gone through the major depression due to severe trauma, Mila has deep compassion and understanding of what suffering feels like, especially the "invisible" one—emotional pain. She has been collecting tools and techniques that help shift out of that "grey" state of mind and create a new one—full of color and vitality.
