Access FACELIFT TM

Is a very gentle process that simply by touching points on the chest, neck, face and head can create effects through the whole body.

The Access Consciousness FACELIFT has been provided in multiple Spas, Wellness Centers and Plastic Surgeons' offices worldwide.

Manual Lymph Drainage

It is a very gentle touch that assists the lymph system in its work. MLD helps to reduce inflammation and swelling such as in cases of arthritis. Lymph drainage massage is beneficial for conditions such as lymphedema,  lipedema or even after surgery. Helping to detoxify the body is also another benefit.

Cupping

Cupping is the practice of using cups (glass, plastic, or silicone) to raise the tissue, draw blood to the surface and create space between the subcutaneous layers.

Massage Cupping is the practice of cups used with manual manipulation to achieve an increase in Range of motion, by relaxing deep tissues and assisting in releasing built-up metabolic wastes which cause pain.

Chakra Balancing

The body has 7 main energy highways also known as the chakras. When these areas are “balanced” and moving you tend to experience more harmony with the mind/body connection.

Reflexology

The feet are used in this approach to aid in perhaps healing the body in areas that can’t be addressed with regular massage. Within the feet lies the entire body. The reflex points relate to every part of the body. I can address things like shoulder pain or even high blood pressure.

14 Point Muscle Balance

Muscle balancing refers to Eastern philosophy and the energetic meridians that run through the body. If there is disharmony in the body we can tell by testing the major muscles the meridians run through. Techniques are used to shift the energy running through the body creating a more harmonious result.

Aromatherapy

Use of essential oils dates back to Egyptian times. There are many therapeutic properties from relaxation to energizing the body even reducing pain. The oils are either diffused in the air or applied to the body with a carrier oil.

Guided Visualization

Relax guided work where you will listen to music, drums or singing bowls. I walk you through steps to gain more awareness and connect to your body. Resulting in less stress and more ease in your body.

Past Life Regression

Gentle guided work where you access your subconscious memories and experiences from a life prior to this lifetime. Each experience can be different and what shows up is simply the information required at this time. There are hundreds of lifetimes. Which one will show up for you?

Yoga Sessions

Allow a 1 on 1 session to either deepen your practice or get you started. I teach Hatha Yoga style which can be done in a flow or a little bit slower to dive in more and explore each pose.

Medicine Wheel Reading

This Native American version of the tarot came from Sunbear and is designed to provide guidance in life. Stones are used in the reading to construct your “personal” wheel thereby unfolding your journey.

Singing Bowl Healing

The singing bowl whether it be metal or crystal has long been used to change the vibration of a space or person. Sometimes I will start a session with them or end a session. And there are times that they are also placed on and around the body.

I’m what some may call a human, two-legged, humanoid or maybe even an alien depending on your perspective. I know something- it’s a gift- it’s me. And with this gift comes yet another journey, a path that is in front of me. I choose to take that step again and again. I won’t give up nor will I quit. Along the way I have been the child, student, companion, lover, Mother and teacher. And now I am all of them and none of them.An energy courses through me now that tells me it’s time for something even greater within to be born. For I am the source, the power and change I’ve been waiting for. Time to create a different world and reality.

Would you like to join me?

Testimonials

“I have been coming to Sheryl for the past six years for massage and she is awesome! Sheryl’s work in energy has also brought a new realm for my personal healing.”

Wendy Cline

“Sheryl has been giving me massages since January 26th, 2006! Over the years new procedures were added from her classes. I have been kept going for over 13 years. Things wouldn’t be the same if I discontinued. I would be an old lady at 76 who would have more problems getting around.”

Pat Masters

“Only after one massage I felt very relaxed. My back and neck felt much better. Cannot wait to come back for more massages.”

Stephanie Kalck

“Sheryl is awesome! I have been getting regular massages with her for almost 10 years! She is very perceptive and she listens to me and works on exactly what is bothering me.
Thanks Sheryl!!!”

Alena Calm

“I have been seeing Sheryl for over 10 years. She is the best massage therapist that I have ever had. I get a 90-minute massage 1 time a month. If I am in a chattery mood then she will chat with me, If not she doesn’t chat except to ask if all is ok. Or if the pressure is to hard or not hard enough. I have had massages all over Harford County, and on cruises. Sheryl is by far the best massage therapist that I have had. I highly recommend her!!!!”

Kimberly Lauer, CDA

Supervisory Dental Assistant

“Any time I see Sheryl for a massage I can go from overworked and overstressed to completely relaxed and at peace. Highly recommend!!!”

Kristi Metzger

“While the above may seem contradictory, my wife & I, who have been with Sheryl for many years, find that what may have started out as an occasional indulgence-birthday/Christmas/ anniversary, has become an essential part of our physical & emotional well-being. Sheryl is not just a technically very competent therapist, she has an intuitive feel for what each of us may need at our monthly sessions. Not sure how I would function without the totally relaxing, yet invigorating massages she gives us!”

John & Sandy Landbeck

“ A couple of years ago I decided I needed to do something for myself. That is when I started going to Sheryl and it was the best decision I ever made. Whether I’m am getting a message just to relax or because I am having pain I always leave feeling so much better.

She is very professional and creates an environment where I feel comfortable to discuss what my aches and pains are and how she can help me. Sheryl will even show me types of exercises I can do at home that will help ease my pain.

I highly recommend Equipoise Soul and Bodyworks and Sheryl Gallagher!! Not sure how I would function without the totally relaxing, yet invigorating massages she gives us!”

Sharon Frazer

“Creation Conversations are a wonderful way to be able to unwind and not be judged. You meet different people and is a way to feel comfortable with a sense of community.”

Michaelean Poremski

“I came to you through a Christmas gift from my wife six years ago or so. I have degenerative discs in my neck and was facing surgery. After I got over the reluctance to have a total stranger rub their hands all over me, I agreed to come with the understanding that if I did not like it or get results, my wife would use the remaining five visits. She did not get to use them! You have helped me manage pain and increased mobility for the past six years as well as avoiding surgery.  The daily headaches and diet of ibuprofen are a thing of the past. Thank you!”
