Increase energy+circulation, reduce stress+accelerate health
Lymph detox preventive lifestyle anti-aging optimal vitality
WHO can benefit? -Anyone who wants a healthier immune system, has excess weight, recovering from surgery, injury or cancer, unsightly scars, adhesion restrictions, digestion issues, IBS, constipation, PMS, sinusitis, headaches, allergies, asthma, fibromyalgia, EBV, detoxing heavy metals, swelling in ankles or fingers, sluggish energy, trouble sleeping, fatigue, brain-fog, depression, +other imbalances. WHAT is Melting Touch Method©? -I combine 6 effective techniques from 27 years of teaching & private practice into a comprehensive approach that treats the FLUID BODY. (1). Lymphatic Drainage massage increases the fluid being filtered by the body's (400-600) lymph nodes, which accelerates waste elimination, increases immune response, and returns the PLASMA of your "internal shower" back into the blood stream. (2). Myo-fascial Release is a gentle, slow realignment of connective tissue that is pain-free resistive pressure and has long term results. (3). Cranial-Sacral accesses the rhythm of cerebral spinal fluid through very light, subtle touch and resets the central nervous system (great for PTSD, after surgery, illness, crisis). (4). Internal Organ Release detoxifies the colon, liver, gall bladder, spleen, lungs, heart, etc through rhythmic pulsing, encouraging & stabilizing their functions. (5). Scar Tissue Softening is a progressive program of cross fiber techniques that can be used immediately after surgery - AND - effectively smooths old scars & disfigurements from injuries, by loosening invisible restrictions in the fascia, thus creating more flexibility. (6). Subtle Energy & Psycho-Emotional Balancing helps adjust the invisible electro-magnetic body, the endocrine/neural-plexus centers (Chakras) and integrates BodyMindSpirit, using breath, sound, intention & awareness. HOW will I feel? -Your will receive a FULL BODYMINDSPIRIT detoxification effect: deep relaxation ("The Rapture" Theta-state), profound sleep, more resiliency, easier breathing, loss of water weight, and great bowel movements. IF YOU ARE VERY TOXIC? it can stir up a healing-crisis with minimal to dramatically increased waste elimination ie: more pooping, peeing, sweating, foul breath, mucus in throat, sweating & skin outbreaks. This will last 24-48 hours, after which you will feel incredibly clean, clear, lighter, more flowing, generally peaceful & able to handle your daily functions.

I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2001. My clients consist of athletes, people with injuries and others looking for stress management and relaxation. I use hypoallergenic, natural oils, lotions and aromatherapy for my treatment sessions.The setting for my sessions is private and quiet with the sound of relaxing music and ocean waves in the background. I can provide either a well lit room or a very dark room depending on client preference. Swedish Massage - a full body of relaxation massage combined with a system of active and passive exercises for the muscles and joints. It typically incorporates the 5 strokes of effleurage, petrissage, fricton vibration and tapotement. Structural Integration Technique - involves a series of soft tissue manipulations designed to organized soft tissue relationships to realign the body structurally to harmonized its fundamental movement patterns. Myofascial Release - more gentle form of Rolfing directly on fascia to release chronic tension, muscle pain and dysfunction. Deep Tissue - focuses on deeper layers of muscle tissue.

Susan Peterson, CAMTC #1039, NCTMB
Massage Therapist
Costa Mesa, CA 92865
Experienced, Effective Massage Therapy
Deep tissue and sports massage for wellness and performance. Each massage is tailored to the current goals of clients, such as relief of pain, improved flexibility, more energy, stamina, etc. Many clients have been with me for several years as they meet their goals and set new ones. Getting there is fun! Sometimes performance goals are athletic, like running marathons or improving golf scores. Regular therapeutic massage is a major factor in preventing injuries as well as maintaining health. I practice massage with empathy. I understand the pain and limitations of conditiions such as migraines, fibromyalgia and TMJ. I work to improve quality of life and eliminating headaches and back pain. Understanding dysfunction and feeling it helps me devise massage techniques to resolve those problems and eliminate patterns that produce them. My toolbox is equipped with many different massage techniques -- neuromuscular, sports, Swedish, lymphatic and active release to name a few - and I use combinations of those techniques to achieve results. Those combos help dislodge chronic knots and erase patterns. If a client tells me they always have a knot in a certain area of the shoulder, I use several techniques to remove the knot for good. I also draw on my experience as a medical writer and researcher to find ways to get rid of stubborn patterns. Often what works for athletes trying to overcome a touchy hamstring often works as well for people trying to erase tension from an old whiplash. Who knew?
