Tea Garden Springs Advanced Body Therapy - Heals Mind, Body, and Spirit

MILL VALLEY, CA (May 21, 2004) A sanctuary for holistic health seekers for over a decade, Tea Garden Springs introduces Advanced Body Therapy, a profoundly relaxing massage performed by master level practitioners that addresses and heals emotions, thought patterns and perceptions stored in the physical body. Incorporating various approaches including Neuromuscular Advanced Work, Emotional Holding Release, and Process Oriented Bodywork, the treatment helps recipients to cultivate a new awareness of the messages from their body to their emotional selves.

“Advanced Body Therapy or ABT stems from the Tao or full awareness and inner stillness,” says ABT expert Brian Theard. “In fact, the basis of ABT is the Taoist idea that ‘Blood follows energy. Energy follows mind. Mind follows spirit. Spirit follows the Tao,’” says Mr. Theard. Plainly put, ABT practitioners’ levels of awareness are so highly attuned and their skills so refined that the deeply therapeutic treatment proceeds with minimum involvement on their part. The Taoists call this Wein Wun Wei. With truly quiet minds and open hearts, practitioners are able to induce a state of deep peace, relaxation, and well being for clients.

An 85-minute Advanced Body Therapy session is $145 and a 55-minute session is $100. For Tea Garden Springs reservations, please call (415) 389-7123. For a complete menu of services and to view the new outdoor tea garden, please visit online at www.teagardensprings.com.
