Reiki

Reiki is a hands-on healing technique from Japan and means transcendent life force.  This subtle vibrational force surrounds and permeates every living thing.  Reiki enhances wellness by gently encouraging balance throughout the entire system - body, mind, and spirit.

The practitioner places their hands on or above the client's body.  Reiki clears and enhances energy according to what the body needs.  The client remains fully clothed, and lies on a massage table.  During sessions clients sometimes experience a deep feeling of relaxation, warmth, tingling, and visual imagery.  Reiki is very gentle and there are no negative side effects. 

Massage therapy is an important component of the mind body healing  process.  It is a therapeutic technique that relaxes the body, reduces inflammation, and lends a sense of well being.

The benefits of regular massage therapy are slowly becoming more widely recognized in the health care community, but if you think about it, we use touch therapy every day -  intuitively. Any time you stub your toe or your shoulders ache you instinctively put your hands where the pain is to make it feel better. At its most basic form, this is the essence and energetics of touch therapy.

Many people know that acupuncture is an effective treatment for pain management, but despite popular belief, it is also a safe and effective way to promote healing as it relaxes, revitalizes and restores energetic balance to all the systems of the body.

We are proud at neurOasis to have Lucy Liu as our practioner of this ancient and healing treatment modality.  Ms. Liu was trained at Shanghai University of Chinese Medicine and the Jing An Medical School, also in Shanghai.  She holds a New York State Acupuncturist License and is a Diplomat in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine.  Ms. Liu has extensive experience treating patients with chronic pain, patients with HIV and women's health.

At neurOasis, we strongly believe that we are in the business of treating people and not simply their disease.

Mindful psychotherapy, led by Terrence Sullivan, LCSW, is an integral piece of our belief in treating the whole person and their illness.  This requires an openess by both patient and therapist to new ways of experiencing reality that is centered in "being" rather than in "doing".  There is an understanding developed that the mind and body are not separate entities, but rather intricately connected with a complicated feedback mechanism.  Although we are not our thoughts, they can set in motion physiological processes that cause the body physical pain.
