"Receptivity requires a nimble, a fine-honed sensitivity in order to let one's self be the vehicle of whatever vision may emerge."

What's it all for? Unwind, Balance, Restore:
Our tissues, as well as our emotional anatomy, carry an imprint of all of our life experiences. Just as certain patterns have taken
time to establish themselves, so it is a process, an “uncoiling” effect, that invites us “back to Zero”. My unique blend of skills helps to “unwind” old injuries and holding patterns so as to reharmonize and reintegrate every aspect of your Being: physical, emotional, energetic. Whether you are seeking simple relaxation, recovering from an injury or illness, preparing for surgery, or moving through a profound life challenge or transition, there is something in my richly diverse practice just for you. I listen closely so as to best serve your needs in the moment. Honoring your confidentiality, comfort, safety, and well-being are my absolute priority.
What to Expect at a Session:
First and foremost, your sense of comfort and safety is my highest priority.
You may wish to arrive wearing loose, comfortable clothing, or bring them in a gym bag with you to change here, if indicated.
Please bring your completed "Getting To Know You" form with you to your first session, if feasible. We will spend several minutes getting to know one another a bit as we review your information. I hold anything you care to share in complete Confidentiality. It is helpful for me to understand what your body has been through during the course of your life, such as major surgeries, a history of cancer or other significant illness, significant personal losses or challenges, or any recent injuries or issues of concern. This information helps me to serve you to the best of my abilities.
After I have answered any questions you might have, I will suggest what approach I might recommend to be best suited for the session, depending upon the information you have provided for me. I will then offer you your privacy to make yourself comfortable on the table in preparation for the session. Swedish-Esalen massage, myofascial techniques, and Manual Lymphatic Drainage work are typically more effective when oils and lotions can nourish the skin and muscles. Clients then relax disrobed to your undergarments, resting comfortably on the massage table, discreetly covered by a drape. Other techniques, such as Zero Balancing, are typically administered with clients remaining fully clothed in comfortable loose, yoga-style clothing, resting on the massage table. Regardless of modality, my work is completely adaptable to ensure that you feel respected and at ease.
Many people experience deep states of relaxation and peace. Sometimes, as our bodies relax, old emotions, memories, and dreams might surface as we give ourselves the Gift of releasing that which has been long-held, and may be asking for recognition, healing, and resolution. Moments like these are not uncommon, and I am fully trained to hold a neutral, sacred, and supportive space for you to allow this process to unfold for you, safely, gently, and with ease. Should you experience such an Opening, I am here to remind you that You are Safe, and All is Well. Healing is Liberating!
Following Your Session:
As you ease into the rest of your day, allow yourself to fully appreciate and integrate the changes that have occurred in you. The unique signature of my work continues to resonate, inviting an innate "unwinding" of long-held body patterns, tension and stress -- in body, in mind, and in spirit! Drink plenty of water and pamper yourself.
Subsequent Sessions:
Even a single introductory session will prove beneficial and informative. As accumulated stresses release, your body remembers its natural balance. This unwinding process invites each session to build exponentially upon the previous experience. You may wish to consider a series of sessions, which invites the work, and your experience, to shine to the fullest. You decide what feels right for you.
How long are the sessions, and what are my Rates?
Typically, your first session lasts for 60-70 minutes, which includes a detailed health intake form, completed in advance.
Subsequent sessions are typicallyt 60 minutes. This includes any time spent on verbal intake to see what today's session may be calling for, as well as time on the table.
Different techniques use time differently.
It is the quality of Presence, Attention, and Intention that dictate the depth and value of a session.
Rates:
One hour sessions @ $125.00 per hour.
Initial session includes a detailed health intake form.
PLEASE ADD SALES TAX of 8%, which is now being charged to the outside of the session fee.
Payment is due at the time of service.
Cash or checks, Zelle or credit cards (please add 3% to credit cards) made payable to Terry Segal.
Occasionally, we might find ourselves in times of challenge. My goal as a bodyworker is to unencumber you from the stresses and challenges that keep you from living in greater comfort and well-being. Hardship considerations may be available on a case-by-case basis.
Gift Certificates available!

Cancellation Policy:
