Multifaceted Health

Blackrock Wellness is Growing!

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the success of Blackrock Wellness so far! From our initial self-defense class to acquisition of massage modalities, we have received amazing support.

I would like to announce that we are now moving to a fixed office for massage. The move should be complete within the first week of December, at which time we will be open for new clients. At our office we would like to focus on "hard to treat" clients... people with disabilities or chronic conditions, athletes, people dealing with depression or obesity, prenatal/postpartum clients, and pediatric massage, especially dealing with childhood disabilities such as autism and Down's Syndrome.

Self-defense classes are still taught on an outcall basis. If you are interested in hosting a self-defense class, please call 775-338-5704 or email us.

Thank you,
Missy Ames, NCMT, Owner

YOGA FOR THE SPECIAL CHILD

Hatha yoga is an ancient set of physical and mental practices designed to bring the body, mind and breath into balance. In the physical postures, called asanas, we gain control of the body by increasing flexibility, balance, strength, and motor coordination while toning muscle and nerve groups and benefiting the organs and endocrine glands. In the breathing exercises, called pranayama, we learn to breathe fully and efficiently, increasing oxygenation of the brain, the release of toxins from the body, and clarity and focus of mind. Yoga was first taught one on one to individuals in excellent health. Today, we know that yoga provides benefits to those of all physical conditions and ages. Yoga for the Special ChildTM offers the benefits of yoga to infants and children, both typically developing and those with special needs. Read The Whole Article
