Sweetgrass Spa invites you to discover and enjoy luxurious massages with our new Zen Therapist - Julie Moore B.A., S.T.. Julie is an internationally-trained and accomplished Shiatsu Therapist, who offers an eclectic range of Zen massages. Everything she does is simply luxurious, Zen & organic. She has twelve years experience in hospital, clinical and luxurious spa environments. Julie Moore is one of the very few therapists in Canada to be fully accredited in the practice of Ashiastu (profound barefoot massage), and the first certified therapist (and instructor) in the new amazing Bamboo-Fusion Massage. Julie works with the meridian system, (meridians make up a circuitry or giant web that delivers Qi (pronounced 'chee') or life force energy to all of the organs and tissues of the body; this subtle energy system has been studied and treated in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for more than 5000 years) to release tension, toxins and blockages, restoring equilibrium and vigour to the body. Her deep sense of compassion and keen intuition allow her to develop individualized programs that best serve her clients’ specific needs. Her practice actually transcends the purely physical, and exudes a Zen quality. Julie Moore is, by all accounts, a leader in the field of Zen Massage and Spa Therapies. Her skill in numerous specialized modalities, coupled with intuitive healing abilities, make her one of the most sought-after therapists in Canada.
Zen Shiatsu:
This Japanese massage relaxes and invigorates the body. Julie uses thumb, palm or elbow pressure on meridians. This unique technique helps your body and its internal organs to reach balance and encourage the self-healing process.
Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage:
"Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy® " is known as “The Most Luxurious Massage on The Planet!” Originally performed by Buddhist monks, this barefoot massage is a compression massage using deep, smooth effleurage gliding strokes all over the "yang” part of the body. Ashiatsu provides a deep effect of relaxation and stimulate the lymphatic system. Top executives, elite athletes, and artists enjoy Ashiatsu to enhance their professional performance by harmonizing the flow of Qi in their body. By centering their mind, they increase synchronicity between their physical, mental and emotional aspect of the self, reaching a state of complete control over the distractions of consciousness.
Bamboo-Fusion:
Newest trend in the spa industry: The heated bamboo sticks glide easily and deeply across your body. Reducing physical, mental and emotional tension, this amazing massage encourages your body and mind to become ONE again… You will feel regenerated, invigorated and “Zenly re-energized”.
Japanese Foot Massage:
The body as a whole system can be improved through foot massage. By stimulating the human bio-energy, this massage improves circulation, balances internal organs and meridians to enhance your overall health. You are massaged from the toes to the knees. This ancient form of Japanese Foot Massage is the origin of Reflexology today.
Zen Hybrid Massage:
More delightful than a traditional massage, this treatment is the evolution of Julie’s healing art approach. This is an exclusive pleasant and pampering aromatherapy massage designed especially for you, incorporating various techniques such as guided relaxation, Bamboo-Fusion, Zen Shiatsu, Japanese Foot Massage and others. Sweetgrass Spa is the first spa to offer Ashiatsu and Bamboo Fusion massages in Canada.
