Born and raised in Berlin, Alison
has studied yoga, physical therapy, bodywork, and Thai massage all over the world.
In 2002, she began her training as a physical therapist, then worked in Intensive
Care in one of Germany’s largest clinics. This experience led her to pursue
a more spiritual path to healing patients, taking her to Asia where she studied Manual
Lymph Drainage, Hot Stone Massage, and learned Thai-Yoga Massage/Therapy from one
of Asokanadas’ former students. Alison enjoyed a year working in a spa on the
Island of Cyprus, then furthered her spiritual studies live on an ashram in India.
In 2008, Alison moved to America to be closer to her family, completing her yoga teacher’s
training with Shiva Rae. A true globetrotter with a rich multicultural appreciation
of yoga and healing modalities, Alison is ready to establish a harmonious, fusion-based
treatment for your body and mind.
Thai-Yoga
Massage/Therapy - Imagine passively melting from asana to asana
while enjoying acupressure and gentle, deep stretches, while also relieving stress and muscle
tension, improving circulation, unblocking and balancing energy flow, detoxifying internal
organs, improving skeletal alignment, and increasing flexibility and range of motion. This
is the beauty of Thai-Yoga Therapy – originally known as Nuat Phaen Boran –
combining elements of Hatha yoga and Chinese acupressure, merging a series of yoga-like
stretches along with chiropractic-type manipulations and massage/acupressure of the muscles,
tendons, and energy lines. Wear light, comfortable attire for your treatment. 90 –
120 minutes.
Lymph Drainage -Developed in Europe in the 1930s by Doctors Emil and Estrid Vodder,
Manual Lymph Drainage is a safe and effective, yet gentle approach to cleansing the body’s
tissues, offering a thorough detoxification. Lymph Drainage is a powerful healing, cleansing
methodology, which can be successfully applied to more than 60 different medical conditions,
from post-surgical swelling to sinusitis, tension headaches to edema, stress reduction to
athletic injuries. Through its gentle, precise, and rhythmical hand movements, Lymph Draingage
removes fro the body metabolic wastes, excess water, toxins, bacterias, large protein molecules
and foreign substances, resulting in great health benefits and a soothing, uplifting physical
experience.
Yoga Therapy - A fast-rising
fusion of physical therapy and yoga, this healing modality can be used to treat a wide range
of physical maladies, from herniated discs to burnout syndrome. In these special, customized
one-on-one sessions, you will be educated on the anatomical and physiological aspects that
your body is experiencing and be guided to use this knowledge to create a mindful approach
to yoga asanas and other exercises that will improve and heal your condition. Yoga therapy
emphasizes the mind-body connection, combining the very best of two different practices,
awakening your maximum healing capacity.

Carla’s interest and training
in the healing arts began during her own search for healing. She used to suffer from
frequent migraines, and after integrating Reiki energy and Reiki principles into her
everyday life, her migraines disappeared and her life transformed. She then knew she
was to dedicate her life to help others transform their own. During her healing treatments,
she integrates Reiki and intuitive guidance to create an individual experience with
everyone she works with. Carla received the level of Usui Reiki Master/Teacher from
The International Center for Reiki Training ( www.reiki.org
) and received her primary training in Reiki I & II from Usui Reiki Master/Teacher
Jacqueline Butler. In addition, she is also a certified Angel Practitioner and received
her certification from Charles Virtue, son of Dr. Doreen Virtue. http://www.reikisocal.com

Raindrop Healer
Raindrop Technique
- a powerful, non-invasive technique that helps to correct defects and curvatures
of the spine as well as kill dormant bacteria living in the spine. These pathogens create
inflammation in the spine and can cause many spinal abnormalities. Raindrop has proven
to be instrumental in correcting many cases of scoliosis and kyphosis and has helped
many people avoid back surgery. Raindrop Technique was developed from the research of
D. Gary Young and a Lakota medicine man in the 1970s. It brings together Vita Flex and
massage with essential oils to bring the body into structural and electrical alignment.
Raindrop Technique was created from the theory that many types of scoliosis and spinal
misalignments are caused by viruses or bacteria that lie dormant along the spine. Raindrop
Technique uses highly antimicrobial essential oils in a very specific application to
reduce inflammation and kill the viral bacteria responsible for it. The oils are dropped
like rain from about six inches above the back and massaged along the vertebrae. The
entire technique takes about 60-90 minutes depending on your circumstance, however the
oils will continue to work in the body for 5 to 7 days, with continued re-alignment
and healing taking place.
