Body N Balance Massage Therapy located in Wantagh, Long Island offers many types of massages. We recommend a deep tissue massage for people who want to relieve the pain associated with muscle strain, sports injuries, whiplash or other debilitating conditions. By manipulating the muscle’s underlying connective tissue (known as the fascia) this type of massage will loosen up areas that have stuck together to form “knots.” This will increase overall flexibility and ease tension.
The techniques utilized in a deep tissue massage will increase circulation to targeted areas, stretch tissue and release toxins that were trapped. The motions are much like a Swedish massage, however they tend to be more vigorous as to deeply penetrate the muscles. It is a common misconception that this type of massage is painful. However it is simply that the pressure is more focused and intense in this type of massage. At the times when knots are being worked out, it may be uncomfortable for you. A massage should never hurt…it defeats the purpose! Some may like the pressure more intense or less intense,, so it is important to communicate that to the therapist.
If you live on Long Island and find yourself experiencing pains from sports injuries, osteoarthritis, muscle spasms, strain injuries or whiplash, you may want to try a deep tissue massage. It is highly recommended that you receive multiple treatments in order to gain the maximum effects. Body N Balance can help you find relief from pain that you are experiencing and help you to relax your mind and body. Give yourself a break and come down for some relaxation!

Aromatherapy is the use of volatile plant oils for physical and emotional well being. The foundations of this therapy dates back thousands of years but the term aromatherapy had not been used until the 20th century. One of the first cultures to use aromatic plants for well being is possibly the Chinese who burned incenses to help foster harmony and balance. The Egyptians used oils for spiritual, medicinal, and cosmetic use, and many believe they coined the term “perfume.” Cultures such as the Greeks and Romans also had utilized essential oils. In the centuries leading up to the 20th, plants were distilled to produce essential oils for medicine and perfume. During the early 20th century, scientists began separating the major constituents of essential oils to use with synthetic chemicals. It was thought that this would be beneficial therapeutically and economically but this weakened the benefits of the oils. With the emergence of modern pharmaceuticals, the healing processes of essential oils dwindled later in the 20th century and now we are seeing a growing resurgence. The desire for all-natural products for therapeutic and cosmetic benefit has been heightened due to availability and information. The education provided within books and the internet has refueled the awareness of the healing properties of essential oils and aromatherapy.
At Body N Balance Healing in Wantagh, Long Island, we offer both Aromatherapy Massage and Aromatherapy Body Wrap.
The Aromatherapy Massage:We use oils suited to you in order to calm the mind and body. The massage is very relaxing and will help heal your body and spirit.
The Aromatherapy Body Wrap:We use special aromatherapy oils that promotes healing of the mind body and spirit. The goal is to have you sweat out the toxins in your body. This not only results in inch loss, but also helps bring you into a deep meditation to release old patterns of thinking. With the mind healing, the body will follow!

At Body N Balance Healing, owner Marsha Eisen utilizes the Usui method of Reiki healing. Here are a few answers to some frequently asked questions about Reiki:
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a method of stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing. It is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If a person’s energy is low, they can be more prone to feeling stress and becoming ill. It is a simple and natural method of spiritual healing and self improvement.
Why should one use Reiki?

It strengthens your body’s natural healing processes from bruising, chronic illness, to mental and emotional imbalance. When we are suffering with a lack of life energy to carry out our normal life function, Reiki can restore us.
How is a Reiki treatment given?
Typically the person receiving the treatment will be laying down on a massage table. The practitioner will place her hands on or near the clients body in a series of hand positions, The Reiki energy flows through the practitioners hands into the client receiving it.
