Why An Organic Massage Experience?

For those of you who know the benefits of using only organic, non-toxic products, you’ll appreciate an organic massage. We are already exposed to too many toxins in our environment so why get more during a massage? What you may not know is that many products (oils, lotions, ointments, gels, and even candles) used by some therapists have chemically synthetic ingredients, including linens being laundered in toxic cleaning products which remain on the fabric.  An organic massage is a truly healthier choice for your relaxation and wellness needs.

The Benefits of Massage

There’s no denying the power of bodywork. Regardless of the adjectives we assign to it (pampering, rejuvenating, therapeutic) or the reasons we seek it out (a luxurious treat, stress relief, pain management), massage therapy can be a powerful ally in your healthcare regimen. Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress. This translates into:

  • Decreased anxiety
  • Enhanced sleep quality
  • Greater energy
  • Improved concentration
  • Increased circulation
  • Reduced fatigue
Furthermore, clients often report a sense of perspective and clarity after receiving a massage. The emotional balance bodywork provides can often be just as vital and valuable as the more tangible physical benefits. The important health benefits of massage are many:

  • Alleviates low-back pain and improves range of motion.
  • Improves blood circulation, which delivers oxygen and nutrients to the cells.
  • Stimulates the lymphatic system, which carries away the body’s waste products.
  • Enhances immunity by stimulating lymph flow – the body’s natural defense system.
  • Improves the condition of the body’s largest organ… the skin.
  • Reduces spasms and cramping.
  • Releases endorphins – amino acids that work as the body’s natural painkiller.
  • Calms the nervous system and promotes a sense of relaxation and well being.
  • Reduces tension and anxiety.
  • Helps with pain management in conditions such as arthritis, sciatica, and muscle spasms.
  • Relieves tension-related headaches.
  • Increases self-esteem

Testimonials About Dalila’s Massage Work

I love Waterfall Healing Arts and Dalila’s style of massage therapy. She has created such a peaceful, serene environment in which to relax and recharge. All the little touches like the heated table, the aromatherapy, the eye pillow and the calming sound of the waterfall are just icing on the cake along with a blissful hour of massage. I highly recommend Dalila! Jenny C. • Petaluma, CA

Dalila is a gifted massage therapist. My wife recommended Dalila 8 years ago; back, knee and ankle problems; athletic dreams trapped in the body of a 50 year old. Dalila knows where and how to get me feeling great. A few simple questions and hands that can find where the stress is showing it’s gnarly self. She really does have a wonderful gift and shares it so generously. I have had many massages over the years but Dalila is by far the best. A special person who pays close attention to the body. I love her work. Tom M. • South San Francisco, CA

Dalila is a talented massage therapist.  I love her massage work – and that is coming from a discriminating massage lover.  I can highly recommend her. J M. • Mill Valley, CA

Dalila has been massaging me for 10 years and has, in that time, become a dear friend as well as a healer. I have chronic low back pain and when my back pain gets intolerable, she is the first person I call. Her touch is very strong, very thoughtful and very healing and she is mindful of what works for your body and she makes sure you… maximize your massage experience. I never want to get up off her table–her linens are so soft and warm, the subtle smell of oil and natural essence is wonderful and the studio atmosphere is like a peaceful cocoon. Dalila massaged me regularly though my pregnancy and I came to rely on her to keep my muscles relaxed with the odd new distribution of weight and the strain it put on my body. Now, with a newborn, I rely on her even more with the stress of carrying a baby all the time! What a treat it is to see Dalila–she is very skilled at her work and she is a lovely human being as well. Bronwen L. • Berkeley, CA

Dalila is a truly talented massage therapist. I’ve been seeing her for years for massage and I always leave feeling refreshed and renewed. She has created a divine little sanctuary in her space and with her strong hands and sensitive spirit she truly has the ability to heal deeply. I highly recommend her! After seeing many massage therapists over the years I can honestly say that she has a strong gift for healing others.. Don’t pass up on the opportunity to visit Waterfall Healing Arts! Tara C.• Nevada City, CA

I have been receiving bodywork from Dalila for nearly 10 years now. She has such a great way of providing a special overall experience.
