WATSU – Freeing The Body In Water – Watsu is an effective approach to muscle re-education involving gentle mobilization of joints and soft tissue. The client is held and floated in our warm water pool and moved through a series of gentle stretches and rotations. The warmth and continuous support provided by water is ideal for promoting deep relaxation and for freeing the joints and muscles of the body from the compressive and constrictive effects of gravity. Massage is incorporated during stillness and movement patterns, to completely stretch muscle and soft tissue through their full-range of motion. When the whole body is in continuous movement, each move flowing peacefully into the next, deep relaxation is achieved and fear of pain is decreased. Without pain, the body can be moved beyond previous limitations and long neglected connective tissue and the once restricted body begin to show new possibilities of freedom and motion.

**Watsu will be offered in the Spring of 2006 and is an individualized service, by appointment only.
