INTEGRATIVE STONE MASSAGE refers to Erin Hartman's use of marble, agates, quartz, jade and basalt stones during massage sessions. Her training includes Swedish Massage, deep tissue and sports massage techniques, Inyan Mani (stone walking), Ho'omana Lomi Lomi that follows in the lineage of the Big Island Style (Hawaiian massage), Joint Mobility and Acupressure rooted in Zen Shiatsu. Stone temperatures vary to help balance energies. This type of massage has circulatory, lymphatic, energetic and deep tissue benefits.
"Erin is a true healer. I never thought I'd be able to run a 1/2 marathon after taking a serious fall at my age, but her healing touch made it possible...." LuAnn C. (Facebook)

TMJ RELEASING MASSAGE is a whole-body, 90-minute massage that includes myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and intraoral techniques (inside the mouth) to release muscle tension and alleviate joint pain. Designed and taught by Helen Baker.
"Erin's gentle and compassionate care is in every detail of the massage experience. She has a gift for sensitivity and listening, and her techniques pinpoint areas of tension I am often unaware I have." Trewdee C. (a long-time client)
ONCOLOGY MASSAGE refers to modifications to massage techniques, draping, and uses of pillows and towels to enhance comfort and support clients currently undergoing (or having recently completed) treatment for cancer. This massage is generally 45 to 60-minutes in length and does not include the use of stones. Erin Hartman has been trained to provide safe, gentle massage therapy while being aware of areas to avoid touching or encouraging lymphatic drainage.
