Hi! I'm Julie, owner and Licensed Massage Therapist at Enlightened Hearts Massage and Wellness. It has been my dream for many years to open up a safe, welcoming, relaxing space to help heal people physically and mentally with a natural holistic approach.  My goal is to assist you on your path to health and well-being whether you are seeking relaxation, pain relief, inner peace, increased energy or better sleep. Therapeutic massage provides a number of health and wellness related benefits. These benefits are delivered in a natural and safe non-invasive method and thus, do not carry the harmful side effects associated with prescribed medications and the many invasive medical procedures used today.  Therapeutic massage is wonderful at enhancing a number of beneficial processes and functions within the human body. - Massage enhances ones state of well being - Massage enhances soft tissue healing - Massage increases flexibility and range of motion - Massage increases muscle tone - Massage increases blood flow - Massage increases dopamine and serotonin levels - Massage increases and improves lymphatic flow and drainage - Massage induces relaxation - Massage stimulates the immune system Similarly, therapeutic massage is extremely effective at reducing and often eliminating a number of uncomfortable and restrictive symptoms and conditions. - Massage reduces constipation - Massage reduces cortisol levels - Massage reduces depression - Massage reduces emotional stress - Massage reduces joint stiffness - Massage reduces muscular tension - Massage reduces pain - Massage reduces scar tissue formation - Massage reduces soft tissue knots and trigger points
