Appointments

To make an appointment, please call Marsha Traxler at 734-747-7020. Leave a message with good times to reach you and I will return your call.

Appointments are 60 minutes long. Your initial appointment will include a history review and assessment. When you make your initial appointment you will be sent a history form to complete and bring with you to your first visit.

To prepare for your bodywork appointment:
Wear comfortable non-restrictive clothing. All bodywork except Lymphatic Drainage is done with the client fully dressed. Drink 8-10 glasses of water each day for two days before your session to allow your tissues to be able to take full advantage of the releases begun by the bodywork. Eat lightly the day of the appointment. It's not comfortable to be lying down for an hour with an overly full digestive system. This can interfere with your ability to benefit from your session.

After your bodywork appointment:
This deep bodywork can "bloom" within you for two to three days after a session. Taking the following simple measures can maximize the benefit you receive: Drink 8-10 glasses of water each day for the next two days to mobilize and flush out any toxins that may be released. If you feel headachy or have symptoms of flu within the first 48 hours you may need more aggressive detoxification. You can soak for 30 minutes in a hot bathtub with 1 cup of Epsom Salts added to the water. This can help a great deal. There are also many herbs that can be beneficial. Please call me if you do not feel well.
Allow quiet time for yourself. You may feel the need for more sleep that usual, and some people feel energized and less sleepy that usual. Pay
attention to your body's cues and follow them.

The cost for a session is $80.

Most commonly I work weekly with clients who are experiencing pain until they are pain free between sessions. Then they graduate to two week intervals which continue until they are stabilized in the changes they are seeking. After that the intervals between sessions increase until the client no longer has a need to return. This general pattern is highly variable and is individualized for each client's needs and circumstances.
