IV Infusions
WHY VITAMIN THERAPY
When taken orally, vitamins have to first pass through the G.I tract and then through the liver before it gets into your general (systemic) circulation. During this process, 70% - 80% of nutrients are lost, which means ONLY 20% - 30% is being absorbed by the body, also known as bioavailability. By utilizing IV drip therapy and vitamin shots, we can bypass the digestive system and go directly into the circulatory system allowing for almost 100% absorption, making vitamin therapy the most effective way to quickly and safely deliver nutrients, antioxidants, and electrolytes into your body. By providing your body with essential nutrients, we can treat a wide range of conditions, relieve hangovers, combat aging, reduce stress, boost immunity, hydrate the body, and improve mental clarity, just to name a few.

Karolina Goliszewski Raindrop Therapy Touch for Health CRTS LSH

Hello,
My name is Karolina. I believe that my purpose is to guide others into the path of healing.
It is my goal here at Northshore Healing Centre to help people take their healing journey in the most compassionate, gentlest & complete way possible. I am here to assist in raising the consciousness & the vibration of the individual so that they can be empowered to heal themselves physically, emotionally & spiritually.
My unique blends of healing modalities are deeply transformational on all levels of being. We will go on an amazing journey of healing your heart, raising your vibration and connecting with who you really are.
My training includes Touch of Health, Raindrop Technique, Vita Flex & Emotional release using essential oils and Reiki.
What is Raindrop?
Raindrop is a technique inspired by the Lakota Native American Indians tradition of observing the northern lights while inhaling the affirming aroma of nearby trees. The Raindrop Technique helps to bring balance and harmony to the body by combining targeted massage and distinctive energy approaches. It includes premium essential oils to create an atmosphere of serenity.
The Raindrop Technique was developed by Young Living Founder D. Gary Young in 1989 as a unique practice based on methods that have been used for centuries to rejuvenate the body and mind.
*Raindrop Technique is a sequence of anointing with oils and laying on of hands that brings structural and electrical alignment to the body in a relaxing and invigorating manner through the power of essential oils.
*Most of the Raindrop oils are high in phenolic content to ward off potentially damaging viruses and bacteria while cleansing cellular receptor sites to enhance inter- and intra-cellular communication and improve overall bodily function. Some Raindrop oils contain a variety of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes to assist in deleting misinformation in the DNA and in reprogramming correct information in cellular memory to restore and maintain physical and emotional wellness
*The maladies of the body and mind are in layers. During any given Raindrop session, only those layers the client is ready and willing to release will be released - both physical and emotional.
Raindrop Technique method essential oils and blends :
The Raindrop Technique method utilizes seven essential oils and two essential oil blends. These oils are applied in a specific order to create a harmonizing experience. Check out what’s included:
Valor II™ essential oil blend
Oregano essential oil
Thyme essential oil
Basil essential oil
Cypress essential oil
Wintergreen essential oil
Marjoram essential oil
Aroma Siez™ essential oil blend
Peppermint essential oil
We made it easy to gather all the products you need with our Raindrop Technique Collection. Simply order the collection and have all the essential oils you need on hand and ready to roll, including V-6™ Vegetable Complex and Ortho Ease™ Massage Oil.
Benefits:
*Relaxing, rejuvenating, and harmonizing to the body, mind, and spirit
*Soothes tension and fatigued muscles
*Balances and realigns the energy centers of the body
*Supports the immune and digestive systems
*Promotes emotional well-being and release
*Helps detox the body’s systems
*Invites feelings of peace and a renewed zest for life
What to expect:
Appointments are usually 70-90min. The oils will be applied directly to your skin. The unique technique has the practitioner start at the feet and move up the spine using a roll-and-release method, targeting several key reflex areas along the way that includes vita-flex, reflexology, acupressure. As a bonus the practitioner loves to combine her treatments with energy work and use the crystal tuning fork to finish off the experience.
Barbara Kulis
Licensed Massage Therapist
-
Hi, I’m Barbara, a licensed massage therapist and founder of Feeling Great Myotherapy LLC. I am a dedicated therapist with over 8 years of experience in the field. I specialize in therapeutic techniques like Medical Myotherapy, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, MLD, Prenatal, Cupping and more. My favorite thing to do is to combine as many techniques into one session as your body needs to create custom massage just for you. In recent years I added to my expertise the beautiful, Sacred Temple Lomi Lomi Hawaiian massage. It quickly became my favorite body work. This unique form of Lomi Lomi was funded by Tom Cochran with Donna Jason. It includes nine principles of healing yourself and others.
First principle is self-care and honoring yourself as a sacred, unique being. Second, hold sacred space to have a unique experience to discover, acknowledge and embrace all aspects of who you are. Third, we perceive each person as divine and whole in the core of their being. In realizing that we are worthy of self-love, joy, healing and celebration. Fourth, is the principle of movement within this sacred space, we begin to move consciously to open our body, strengthen our “Mana” or energy level to heal ourselves. Fifth, we explore the principle that answers and healing come from within. We realize that the ultimate choice, power and responsibility of our lives come from ourselves, and our connection to the divine. Six is conscious touch. To explore and deepen our sensitivity to ourselves and others both physically and energetically. Seventh, is the principle of receiving and allowing. As we receive and deepen our connection to ourselves, the earth and the divine. Eight, principle of facilitation and intention to be present and conscious and to create a safe and nurturing space. Finally, the principle of integration is important for our fast paced, secular world. Learning to slow down, listen to our inner wisdom and to integrate the experience of the sacredness into our daily lives is essential to our wellbeing.
I invite you to my table where I provide you with a safe, honoring and compassionate space and to experience love, kindness and compassion with every touch to heal your body, mind and spirit.

Lomi Lomi Massage

Aloha,
I invite you to the beautiful experience of Hawaiian massage called Lomi Lomi Nui.
My adventure with Lomi Lomi began two years ago and has been life changing.
Lomi Lomi massage is a healing practice that releases blockages, promotes circulation, and shifts energy. It may also be called ‘loving hands massage’ or simply ‘Lomi massage.’
The word ‘Lomi’ means to shift/move/rub/soothe. The movements have been likened to a cat happily kneading its paws, contentedly purring away!
According to legend, Lomi Lomi massage originated in Polynesia, then came to Hawaii when the Polynesians settled there. As prescribed by Polynesian elders, who were the community leaders, these massages were performed only by trained healers as part of spiritual events.
Today Lomi Lomi massage is available to anyone with access to a trained practitioner.
As a massage therapist, I will help you activate the natural healing powers already within yourself. The massage will remove any physical and emotional blockages so your journey to wellness may begin. You will reconnect spiritually as you also recuperate from life’s stress.
A Lomi Lomi massage session may be booked for up to two hours. I use long, flowing strokes with hands and forearms, plus gentle stretches and rotation of joints.
After your Lomi massage, you will feel refreshed, more flexible, and released from tension.
In addition to deep relaxation, Lomi Lomi has several therapeutic uses.
The benefits of Lomi Lomi massage include: increased flexibility: Gentle manipulation of joints and limbs increases range of motion and flexibility
Better circulation: Deep tissues are targeted to ensure a circulation boost
More efficient removal of toxins: As circulation improves, lymphatic fluids flow more
efficiently to expel toxins
Heart rate calmer and more regulated: Blood pressure is lowered, giving a sense of calm and well-being
Balanced emotions and breath: Energies are unblocked and difficult emotions released,
creating a deeper connection to your inner self
This massage uses oil, so clients typically undress, with underwear kept on, as preferred.
Towels cover body parts not being worked on, so all clients are made comfortable.
Lomi Lomi calls for you to love and accept your body just as it is, and enables you to embrace your life right here and now. When you fully embrace and inhabit the body you have right now, you become free to move forward.
The gift of receiving Lomi massage and then sharing this gift with others through training has helped me to reconnect with my body and soul. Lomi is an important tool on my journey to discover my life purpose, giving hope and courage. Let me share this gift with
you.
Come As You Are. The Moment of Power Is Now!
