TRAGER® PSYCHO PHYSICAL INTEGRATION PRACTITIONER
AND WATSU® PRACTITIONER
Lynn’s presence, nurturing and informed touch reflect more than 2000 hours of training since beginning massage school in August of 1993. The Trager® Approach is her primary modality. During this awesome table-work, gentle jostling, compressions and stretching melt tension from muscle and connective tissues. To reinforce the results of easier, pain free, increased range of motion, Mentastics® are explored. Mentastics provide clients with ways to promote self-care and healing anytime!
Watsu® offers Shiatsu massage in warm water (95 degrees). Lynn combines Trager® principles, Watsu methods, and warm water to create a deeply relaxing and healing experience. Lynn gently floats and rocks her clients, allowing the flow of warm water to facilitate muscle relaxation. This relaxation allows alternate stretching and folding of the body to create maximum flexibility. Watsu has been described as pain relief without drugs, total relaxation, nurturing, healing, transforming, and a physical meditation.

Rentals
After 25 years of offering to Seattle an affordable pleasant sauna environment for families and the community, Abintra closed our sauna doors.
Abintra moved from the Greenlake area to the Roosevelt area and into m'illumino movement education arts and retreat center. The retreat is a great place to stay over night for a refuge-in-the-city with a top of the line private steamroom and sauna.
There, also, is a warm water therapy pool that is reminiscent of a sacred shrine. The pool is available for Fluid Integration, a wonderful movement therapy and exploration in the water developed by Bridget Thompson , the owner and director of m'illumino and Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner and teacher 206.525.0363. Also available in the warm water therapy pool is WATSU with Laura Syrgley 206.250.2094.
Jerome Chroman, also, provides a deeply hypnotic experience with something he developed calledW-Autogenics Training in the lusciously, warm pool 206.522.9384.
We hope you enjoy your experience.
