Body treatments...

We offer a wonderful, pampering array of spa treatments specially designed to complement your detox and weight loss program as well as relax, renew and rejuvenate your body. 
You may choose massages, facials, acupuncture, manicures and pedicures, detox
treatments and reflexology. Our professional therapists will prescribe a massage
perfect for you! (some treatments are location specific)

A sampling of your options:

Massage Therapy – (Swedish Massage) Enjoy the bliss of a continuous rubdown.  The ultimate pampering for relaxation and reward.                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                              
Deep Tissue Massage -  This massage is designed  for the relief of pain, stress, muscle tension and chronic physical problems. It  promotes circulation, elimination, and drains the lymph system of  toxins.                 
                                                                               
 Hot Stone Massage - Using warm oil & smooth warm stones, this massage uses  long, soothing strokes & warm heat to ease and relax muscle tension and pain.  
                                                                                                                                                                           
Thai Massage – While under the sheets, the therapist uses fingers, hands & feet along the acupuncture channels  & muscle groups to release tension & pressure in the muscles. Stretching of limbs is also involved. An intense and unique experience.                                
                                                                    
Internal Organ Massage - One of the  best times to receive abdominal massage is while fasting & detoxing. When the belly is empty, it is easier to access and address the organs, and to feel where there are tensions and blocks. This treatment involves directly massaging the abdomen and digestive organs along with holding acupressure points related to particular organs. The energies are increased and balanced. It also increases the blood flow to and from your organs.
                                                                                                          
Lymphatic Drainage Massage – Lymph nodes throughout the body become clogged with dead cells, uric and lactic acid, causing pain, stagnation and swelling in the areas. By using long stretching strokes, fluid and waste matter are drained from the area, leaving joints and surrounding areas pain free with improved ease of
movement.        
                               
Reflexology - A soothing method of relaxing the body, increasing circulation & relieving tension. An emphasis on the  bodies extremities, particularly hands and feet, produces a blissful state of relaxation.

Mind treatments...

Have you ever felt out of control? Are you eating when you are full? Does your self control seem to be slipping away whenever you think of refined carbs, sweets? Are you craving bread and pasta?
Getting to the causes of our unhealthy relationship with food and recognizing that there are emotional and habitual issues affecting our behaviors can be the first step toward positive lifelong change.
We offer the following special services:


Behavior Modification (individual session) -  Identify your specific emotional or compulsive over-eating habits. Our on staff Bio-Nutritionist will help you to understand and overcome damaging eating behaviors. You will be introduced to behavior changing strategies and techniques tailored to your personal and confidential situation.

Clinical Trigger Therapy (individual session) - If you are trying to get over compulsive and addictive behavior of any sort, we can work with you to move forward in that pursuit. It is not what we do, but why we do it.  When you begin to understand the answer to that question, permanent healing will be met with less resistance and a richer life can unfold as a beautiful and  rewarding experience.  
"My experience at Birchcreek included a wonderful array of special treatments that I deserved! The spa treatments were the best I have ever experienced and added a perfect pampering note at the end of each day...plus I lost 9.8 pounds in 11 days! I would do it again in a heartbeat.."
Renee Jimenez, 47 years old, Santa Fe, New Mexico
