Massage
At Everyday Yoga & Wellness Center we offer:
Caring Hands by Anna Varner.
Massage is one of the oldest, simplest forms of therapy.
The basic goal of massage therapy is to help the body heal itself and to increase health and well-being.
There are many health benefits to receiving massage therapy on a regular basis:
- Increases circulation, allowing the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs.
- Stimulates the flow of lymph, the body's natural defense system, against toxic invaders. For example, in breast cancer patients, massage has been shown to increase the cells that fight cancer.
- Increased circulation of blood and lymph systems improves the condition of the body's largest organ - the skin.
- Relaxes and softens injured and overused muscles
- Reduces spasms and cramping
- Increases joint flexibility.
- Reduces recovery time, helps prepare for strenuous workouts and eliminates subsequent pains of the athlete at any level.
- Releases endorphins - the body's natural painkiller - and is being used in chronic illness, injury and recovery from surgery to control and relieve pain.
- Reduces post-surgery adhesions and edema and can be used to reduce and realign scar tissue after healing has occurred.
- Improves range-of-motion and decreases discomfort for patients with low back pain.
- Relieves pain for migraine sufferers and decreases the need for medication.
- Provides exercise and stretching for atrophied muscles and reduces shortening of the muscles for those with restricted range of motion.
- Assists with shorter labor for expectant mothers, as well as less need for medication, less depression and anxiety,
and shorter hospital stays.
Anna is available to schedule your massage or for consultation to help you decide on a wellness plan that well help your body, heal and recover faster from illness, injury and chronic conditions.

Lymph Drainage Massage:
The lymph system is essential to the overall health of the body. The lymph system is a key component of the immune system that filters waste products of cellular metabolism from the lymph fluid in the body's tissues and transports the purified lymph back to the blood stream. Lymphatic Therapy works by removing congestion from the lymph system and reestablishing the flow and reabsorption of lymph from the tissues. Lymphatic therapy reduces inflammation and swelling in the tissues, aids detoxification of the body, and boosts the immune system. A gentle, subtle, deeply relaxing treatment with powerful benefits for overall health and energy. Speeds healing from injuries and surgeries.
60 minutes - $60.00

Deep Tissue Body Work:
Deep tissue massage is a type of massage aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia, also called connective tissue. Deep tissue massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish Massage along with Trigger Point Therapy but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is also a more focused type of massage, as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or knots
(also known as "adhesions.")

Ear Candling:
Ear Coning (also known as Ear Candling), is a simple, effective method for removing ear wax build-up, fungus and impaction from within the ear canal. The process can also regulate sinus pressure; assist with post nasal drip, sinusitis, migraines, some forms of hearing loss, and restoration of equilibrium. It requires a hollow candle that tapers at one end to fit into the ear. The other end when lighted draws oxygen for the flame and creates a vacuum. This has the effect of pulling out residue and cleansing the sinus cavity. Ear Coning was a technique used by the ancient Egyptians, Mayans and Tibetans.

Caring Hands Anna Varner
At a time in her life when most people would slow down and enjoy the labors of hard work and a successful massage career, Anna has been re-energized! Her passion for assisting in the healing and health journeys of her clients has increased.
Anna has spent years developing Caring Hands Massage Body Work Treatments. Through her life of education and experience she has put together a style of massage that brings restoration and healing to the body.
In the late 80's Anna started with Swedish Message and then felt called to go into deep tissue work. She has studied at MTTI, but then decided to continue her education at the Esalen Institute of California. There she received extensive training in Trigger Point Therapy, Zen Body Balancing, Myofacial Release and Connective Tissue Release Techniques. While studying at the Esalen Institute of California, Anna studied under the direct protégé' of Ida Roth. She learned many of the techniques that were developed by Ida Roth known as Rolfing.
To be truly rounded she added Bellanina formerly Belavi Facial Techniques to her skills. This technique works extensively on the sinus cavities and stimulates the facial muscles to encourage a lifting and lessoning of fine lines which creates the face lift massage. This massage will save you thousands over a face lift and is a natural alternative.
Anna's newest educational quest is Lymph Massage. She is doing an extensive study and education journey in to the lymph system, to bring healing in a new format to the body.
All of these techniques combined with two decades of experience have created Caring Hands Body Work Treatments.
