Barak Mendoza, a empathetic licensed Massage Therapist, I feel that I was placed in this life to help people. That help could be holding space for people, but I am definitely more suited and educated for massage therapy. My massage style is definitely not a "cookie cutter" style of massage. I would say that I lean more towards myofascial release. That being said, I do have the belief that Deep tissue massage does not have to hurt. Deep tissue could just take some time and, be therapeutic and relaxing at the same time. The thought I would love for my clients to have when receiving a massage from me is "Wow, that's sore, but it is so relieving." And not "Ouch! This must be working, because this hurts a lot!" I love being a detective of the body to see, and ask, why my client is in pain. Although relaxation is a goal, my massage style is more geared to help with relief of soreness and pain. I am also humble enough to admit when something is out of my hands of healing and, when a massage client may need to seek other professional help. I will leave you with this. Any tool is better when it is sharp. Our bodies are our tools, and massage is just one of the most self-caring ways to help sharpen it

Specialty

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy in Caldwell Idaho

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (LDT) has been around clinically since 1936, but it has been really growing in interest by the medical community and public due to research findings that show how important and beneficial this type of therapy can be. The light touch is comforting and connects to the clients nervous system in a different way than regular Swedish or Full-body massage.

LDT is a gentle technique that works through the body’s interstitial and lymphatic system to activate the body’s liquid circulation and stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Advanced LDT practitioners develop the skill to perceive and respond to the body’s innate ability to heal itself. The practitioner can then reroute the lymph by following the subtle indications given by the body enhancing the healing process. This eliminates mental mistakes in assuming we know what the body needs and therefore enforcing pathways that are not optimal. Honoring the intelligence of the body ensures deeper and long-lasting results.

We love being able to offer this therapy to our clients and especially those who have recently undergone surgery or those struggling to recover from injuries.
