Hypnosis is a temporary relaxing of the conscious to allow beneficial suggestions into the subconscious where they are stored as truth. The individual always has total control as to what suggestions are accepted, which are previously discussed with the hypnotist. Hypnosis is a safe and positive practice that helps individuals and groups overcome issues and reach personal goals.
The Herbal Poultice or "Luk Pra Kob" (literally translated to mean "pressing herbal sphere") in Thai is best described as a deep heat medicinal muscle treatment that dates back to 14th Century Thailand when a hot pack was administered to war soldiers returning from battle. To rejuvenate warriors, a bundle of therapeutic herbs was steamed and applied to the body to soothe aches and pains.
Isabelle's work has radically changed how I inhabit my body. She excels at easing pain, and at helping your muscles relax and move back into order. Her skills have released my myofascial tissue so that I am more limber and flexible. She has calmed my central nervous system, and made it easier to connect to my heart.

Isabelle is unlike any other massage therapist I've ever worked with. She cares for the mind, body, and soul with a holistic, experienced approach. She truly understands how every part of the body works and educates you on your pain and why it's happening. Isabelle is a true healer and I feel so blessed she's a part of my well-being journey!

I have been seeing Isabelle at Sense of Balance regularly for the last few months for ongoing soft tissue problems. Not only does she have a calm and relaxing way about her, but she is incredibly knowledgeable about anatomy and the interaction between different areas of the body. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stress-releasing massage or dealing with chronic aches and pains.

I have been seeing Isabelle for a year now. Finding her was a stroke of luck that has been life changing. I have struggled for years with terrible shoulder and neck tension. I had always left salon massage sessions sore and not feeling much better than when I went in. With Isabelle I feel the effects of her years of knowledge and amazing skills DURING the session.
She always takes time at the beginning of each session to assess what is ailing me and targets those areas with appropriate treatments. I sing her praises high and wide to anyone willing to listen. She truly is a miracle worker with a deep and wide bench of education and experience. She's the best!

Isabelle is amazing! She has such a wide range of knowledge that she can come up with solutions never thought of or mentioned by anyone else. She's caring and compassionate. Her biomedical engineering background gives her a strong foot in science (which I appreciate as a physical therapist) and her energy and intuition make her an amazing healer. I'm so thankful to be connected with her. I can't recommend her enough!

I had a massage with Isabelle today it was wonderful. I had suffered from a brain AVM and 2 brain surgeries. It almost seemed she tailored my massage perfectly without having known all my medical history. This was surely the most relaxing massage I have had in years. I have a hard time relaxing both mentally and physically, and it naturally felt easy with Isabelle and her massage technique.

Isabelle Lovell has been providing massages for clients of OPT: Orthopedic Physical Therapy for over 14 years now. I have known her personally since buying OPT in 2006. Time and time again I am amazed by her raving fans. Every one of my patients who has seen Isabelle for a massage, raves about the amazing work that she does. Not only can she provide all types of massage from deep tissue work, to more gentle approaches, but she takes the time to examine the whole client and figure out the root of his or her pain.
She brightens her client's day with her joy for life and they always leave her sessions feeling more relaxed and in less pain. She invests a tremendous amount of time with her clients and spends a full hour with each person. Compared to other massage places where an hour really means 50 minutes, Isabelle's hour long sessions really mean an hour. We are lucky to have Isabelle helping our patients and I hope she continues to do so for a very long time. Jason Hendricks Owner - OPT

Isabel Lovell is a miracle worker! I have never met a massage therapist with more tools in her toolbox to draw from. This is not a fluff and buff massage, it is theraputic. If you are in pain, Isabell is your go to person. She has helped me with chronic back pain and also has helped several members of my family. With regular monthly visits I have become pain free. Isabel is the best and I highly recommend her services.

Have been seeing Isabelle for about 6 years for typical aches and pains that an athlete and office worker feels. She not only takes care of my tissue issues, but teaches me how to understand and listen to my body better. I could not continue to compete at a high level of volleyball without her! I've tried other therapists but no one has compared to Isabelle and her healing practice. I highly recommend her talents, I do not know what I would do without her!

I came here the other day for the first time. I had so much tension in my shoulders so I was so happy she could see me the same day I called. It runs in the bottom part of her home but once you walk in you feel like you're in a nice salon. Beautifully decorated and very soothing and comforting. I got a 90 minute massage and she used very good pressure which I loved. And very reasonably priced. I wish I would have chose to do the sauna before the massage.next time!
