Massage Services

The Massage Services program at The Peaceful Dragon is dedicated to soothing the inner spirit while revitalizing your inner beauty and health. Through the use of safe, 100% natural products and procedures, we provide our clients with luxurious nurturing that begins the moment they walk in our door, and soothes them long after they have left our care.

The stresses of your busy life take their toll. Muscles may be tense, thoughts agitated, sleep disturbed. You just don't feel your best. Massage is a healing art and science that can really help.

Massage is also a safe way to feel cared for and nurtured. This promotes a sense of well being, reduced anxiety, enhanced self-image, and release of negative emotions.

Based on classic Asian and European therapies, our body treatments help to relax and cleanse the system. All body therapies and massages are designed to meet your exclusive requirements.

Sessions take place in a peaceful, private room with your choice of relaxing music that will transport you to a place of relaxation.

We work with each client to determine specific needs and to develop individual care. All therapists are nationally certified and licensed in North Carolina. Continuous training insures the most up to date treatments. We are committed to the highest industry standards and work as a team to guarantee client satisfaction.

• Sauna
  For the fullest indulgence, customize your session with a shower and sauna either before or after your massage. A sauna before your massage will begin the release of tension in your muscles, while a sauna after will flush the newly released toxins from your system.

• Reiki
  Reiki complements your massage by promoting healing. It works within the human energy field to restore optimal flow and balance. When our energy flow is free and balanced, health is present. When the flow is disrupted, discomfort or illness occurs. The deep relaxation that occurs with Reiki supports the natural healing process of the human body on all levels - physical, emotional, mental, spiritual.
  Add $65.00
• Ear Candling
  An Ancient therapy that uses convection to draw out excess wax and impurities in the ear. The hollow beeswax candle is placed on the outer edge of the ear canal and lit to produce the convection process. Relax and cleanse with this treatment by itself or add it to your massage.

Sauna

Enjoy some blissful relaxation in our men's or women's saunas, available only in combination with massage packages. Enjoying a sauna is a great way to relax the cares of the world away. But saunas also have some great health benefits:

• The heat opens the pores and flushes out the body's toxins and impurities. It is the deepest cleaning bath in the world.
• A sauna increases circulation, so the bloodstream brings more nutrients to all parts of the body.
• Helps to relieve mental fatigue
• Relieves tension and stress
• Increases the metabolic rate, so it provides a cardiovascular workout, which helps condition the heart
• Provides temporary relief for arthritic and other pain by releasing natural pain killers, beta endorphins and norepinephrines
• Promotes healing and increases resistance to illness
• Relaxes your muscles
• Increases your energy levels and stamina
• Gives you softer skin
• Improves your memory, concentration and reaction time

Holistic Healing

Holistic Healing is a unique blend of energetic healing modalities, hypnotherapy, and transformational life coaching. With the support of Holistic Healing & Life Coaching, a desire to change your life, and a willingness to take action, you can:

• enjoy improved physical health and self care
• accelerate the body's natural healing abilities
• support and enhance your current medical treatment program if you are experiencing physical challenges
• learn to stay centered and calm regardless of what is going on around you
• gently release blocks that keep you from moving forward
• gain clarity
• help eliminate stress in your life
• learn how to attract what you want in your life in a new way

Energetic Healing
Energetic healing works directly with the human energy field to restore optimal flow and balance within our core energetic systems. It is this restoration of balance that results in an improved state of well-being through Therapeutic Touch, Reiki, etc. Energetic healing is a natural and effective way to uplift your body, mind, and spirit.

Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a process that allows your conscious and your subconscious minds to believe and integrate the same message. During hypnosis, while your body and conscious mind are in a relaxed and natural state, your subconscious mind is awake, alert, and receptive to positive suggestion. You are in control at all times, and, afterward, you remember everything that happens in the session. Hypnosis is really an education and communication process with your mind.

Transformational Life Coaching
Transformational life coaching helps you learn to recognize, trust and follow your own inner guidance - your Higher Wisdom. You gain clarity about what you want in your life and learn a new way of goal setting - goal setting from the inside out. You learn how to bring more ease and harmony into all aspects of your life. You shift your consciousness from an external perspective to an inner or Higher Self perspective.
