This treatment is for everyone and it is very effective at treating a number of chronic problems. Melinda Naff has over 25 years experience offers this treatment, rest assured that you will be in good hands.
The positive effects of Craniosacral Therapy rely to a large extent on your body’s natural self-corrective activities. The light, hands-on approach simply assists the hydraulic forces inherent in the craniosacral system to improve your body’s internal environment and strengthen its ability to heal itself. The therapy is used to dissipate the negative effects of stress, and to enhance your general health and resistance to disease. It has an lengthening effect on the spine and compliments any therapy or chiropractic adjustments.
Craniosacral therapy is effective in treating a variety of problems:
- Chronic pain as a result of accidents,
- Chronic Fatigue Stress Disorder,
- “Frozen” shoulders,
- Temporal-mandibular dysfunction (TMJ),
- Chronic Neck and Back Pain,
- Fibromyalgia
- Stress and Tension-Related Problems,
- Migraine Headaches and more.
A clients experience with this therapy; “I could barely walk when I went for my first session, Melinda said I looked like a cork screw, all twisted. I could barely get on the massage table. For two and a half hours Melinda worked on me, and to be honest she was hurting me but she said,” I have to do this to help you.” About 30 minutes before I left I felt relief from the pain. I believe it was because of her persistent, intuitive, professional experience. When I left I could walk normally and without significant pain.” John Goddard, Alexandria, VA.
This is a great treatment for Fibromyalgia sufferers.
Also perfect for the active person, great therapy to support your exercise program. Myofascial Release Therapy goes deep into the tissue that surrounds all muscles to release the restrictions. I may use it over the entire body or just in specific areas.
The structure of fascial tissue makes it possible to make therapeutic changes to the body long after a trauma is suffered. This therapy lengthens and stretches shorten tissues that when UN-adressed may result in pain, a misaligned spine, pelvis or any other area where the tissue is shortened. Hot Stones will really enhance this treatment!!
While this treatment is for anyone, if you spend your day at a desk or on a computer you will love this! A great back massage can relieve pain, anxiety, and stress.
This treatment focuses on the neck, back and shoulders we also use warm moist towels to calm the mind and soothe the senses. You will emerge transformed!!
This treatment is only available with Melinda
My Signature sessions incorporate multiple modalities.
I follow my intuition during these sessions allowing for UN-biased inspiration that clears the way for healing to occur. I specialize in craniosacral therapy that provides lasting results from chronic conditions.
Since I use a combination of therapies during a bodywork session, each session is unique and provides a holistic approach to your specific needs.
A clients comments
“Melinda has the gift. Her hands are like extensions of her heart and mind. She hates the term, but she’s a true “healer.” In my sessions with her she’s corrected (or guided my body) back to normal, from things like pain generated from too much stress, or too much weightlifting. Whatever your imbalance, her hands gently coax your body back to the place it’s supposed to be. Each session can be different, as well, depending on what ails you. She doesn’t go through a pre-determined routine. She tells you right up front on the phone, “I can’t tell you what’s wrong or what I’m going to do until I see ya.” If you’ve got the time, I recommend doing 90 minute sessions. You won’t be sorry.
**A series of sessions is suggested-discounted packages are available for purchase.

I recommend that clients choose a “Time Journey” that allows you to book time rather than specific treatments, so that services can be tailored to meet your individual needs. This all-encompassing treatment begins with a soothing foot ritual the perfect way to begin your unique journey to your inner sanctuary. Time is allowed for a consultation with the client to design your treatment.
The powerful energy of basalt stones that are hand gathered from the Baja of Mexico and Montana riverbeds combined with a warm oil massage make this treatment a unique experience.
The stones or ” helpers” (as they are sometimes called) are an extension of my hands and when combined, the result is penetrating warmth and deep relaxation.
This treatment combines a specially adapted full body reiki session and a reflexology treatment that is tailored to your individual needs.
Reiki is both powerful and gentle. It is a safe, non-invasive form of hands on healing. Reiki is used to relieve pain, strengthen the immune system, re-balance the functioning of the organs, eliminate toxins form the body, calm the mind and emotions, aid in concentration, help in the grieving process and generally accelerate the body’s own healing process.
Starting at the head and working towards the feet the reiki treatment induces deep relaxation balances the chakra energies and stimulates the body’s healing process, thus relieving stress, pain and tension while promoting a feeling of well-being.
With the client deeply relaxed and all the body’s pathways cleared, the reflexology treatment is able to work on an exceptionally deep and subtle level. When the body is balanced, healing on all levels is possible physically, mentally, and spiritually.
I highly recommend this treatment!
Marma Point Massage is a very powerful treatment. I suggest this treatment for those who are looking for a truly healing experience. Marma points are the gateways in the body where the body and mind communicate.
This treatment combines Marma Point Therapy (which promotes subtle energy cleansing and re-balancing that restores the memory of (wholeness) with a rhythmic massage. The combination of energy balancing and a light touch over the Marma points while very subtle is profoundly relaxing. By stimulating these points, blocks due to stress and improper diet can be dissolved. This treatment quiets the mind, soothes the senses and awakens the inner healer. Pure essential oils are blended for your specific dosha.
For mother and baby
Massage during pregnancy benefits mother and baby, soothing, relaxing and relieving stress on hips, low back and legs. We all know that the un-born child is directly effected by its environment before birth, so they benefit too!
I recommend it from three months until birth,but it is especially helpful in the last trimester. I also highly recommend that the new mother have a massage as soon after birth as possible..Makes a great shower gift!
