Thai massage is a form of therapeutic touch that differs in many ways from traditional massage. Instead of a massage table, you lie on a mat on the floor while the provider manipulates your body in certain ways to stimulate organs and improve flexibility. You can leave your clothes on for a Thai massage. It's important to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that is easy to move in.

Benefits of Thai massage include:

• Increased range of motion

• Improved sleep 

• Increase relaxation.

• Improve the work of the digestive system

​

Serge's technique in Thai massage is gentle and effective and has been effective in increasing mobility for your stiff joints and is safe for all ages

Contemporary Acupuncture takes an ancient therapy and re-defines its mechanisms and effects using present-day scientific understanding of human physiology. Small thin needles are inserted into various points in the body, including hands, feet and scalp, and left in place for a period of time before removal. At times a small electrical device is attached to one or more needles to aid in treatment and at other times may choose to use no electrical input.

• Acupuncture helps to reduce pain locally where the needles are inserted and throughout the body.

• Acupuncture has a calming effect 

• Acupuncture inactivates myofascial trigger points.

• Acupuncture has effects on the brain.

• The effects of acupuncture accumulate when repeated.
   

Dr. Christine uses needles that are generally pain free and have been very effective in treating a variety of conditions

A custom orthotic is a prescribed medical device from a professional. Custom means,  Dr. Christine uses foam casts to perfectly fit your foot. A doctor-designed orthotic will control the alignment and function of your foot. These orthotics will treat or prevent abnormal motion, or rolling, of the foot. By redistributing the pressure on the bottom of your feet, you’ll reduce discomfort, pain and calluses. Custom orthotics will increase effectiveness and decrease pain experienced with various cardio activities.
