See full description of the benefits of Manual Lymph Drainage in the Service Details below.
My name is Liz Giles and have been a Massage Therapist for close to 4 decades. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Colorado but got my start in Pennsylvania, was also licensed in New Mexico.
In addition to massage, I also hold certifications in Clinical Herbalism, Manual Lymph Drainage, Clinical Aromatherapy, Angel Reiki, and Holistic Wellness Consulting.
To be clear, my credentials are valid and up to date, however, please note that I do not profess to diagnose, cure, heal or work outside of my licensed or certification statuses.
For those with serious health issues I highly recommend getting a physician(s) diagnosis and in some cases, if your doctor is open, I can work in tandem with your physician on certain more serious matters.
In areas out of my expertise I will refer you to someone trained in that area.
But there is a lot that my trainings can offer.
My goal is to help my clients to the best of my ability, sometimes that means referring them to someone better qualified to handle their specific needs.

Please note that Health in Essence LLC now only provides house-call sessions or group sessions for events. Apothecary Apotheosis can provide products via mail for out of state or drop off/meet up services locally.
Due to the rising cost of commercial real estate in our area, this was necessary in order to sustain a livable income while still serving my community. My days and times of operation will vary week to week. I book clients in advance. Last minute booking are discouraged but can sometimes be accommodated for existing clients with an emergency situation, if my schedule allows.
For General and Pre & Post Surgery Applications (House Call Service)
The Lymphatic System has no pump, lymph fluid is moved thru our bodies with the movement of muscle contraction or manually with Manual Lymph Drainage. T
This technique utilizes a very light and relaxing but directionally focused touch to mobilize lymphatic fluids from the body tissue into the lymphatic system to promote detoxification, increased fluid movement, drain stagnant lymph nodes, increase Lymphocyte production, reduce inflammation and speed injured tissue recovery.
This technique is often recommend to patients by their doctors for pre and post surgery to prepare and to recover., but is not limited to surgery candidates,
Anyone who is not on the contraindication list can receive benefit from this technique.
As a Certified Clinical Herbalist and graduate of the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism, I have been trained to help individuals with a wide variety of health related issues using herb, nutrition, lifestyle hacks and other tools. The first session is a deep dive into the clients health history, dietary picture, daily habits, including lifestyle, stress factors, etc. The point is to get to know the whole person in order to get to the core of the primary health issues and co-create a plan of meaningful action.
My job is to assess, guide, educate and mentor you thru these actions and your journey to improved health. We work together.
Ready to serve you with herbal remedies in the form of dried medicinal herbs, pre-made herbal preparations and custom formulation. Herbs offer so much natural healing power when applied appropriately and are an often much more cost effective alternative for many ailments.
Apothecary Apotheosis can provide products via mail for out of state or drop off/meet up services locally.
Used for thousands of years as we evolved with the plant kingdom (they were here first!), plants offer us much in the way of health alternatives.
Nearly four decades of Therapeutic Massage experience in 3 states,
I am now a Colorado Licensed Massage Therapist who offers 60 minute and 90 minute house call sessions in the Boulder County area. by advanced appointment only.
I already have a massage table at my house, can we use that instead of yours?
Yes as long as I can adjust the height on the table, I am happy to use your table instead of mine. Table height can vary from one practitioner to another and for certain modalities being implemented.
Due to surgery, mobility issues or other limiting factors, I can't get safely up on a table for my session. Can I still have a session?
Absolutely! We will assess at the time of scheduling what your mobility issues are for your specific needs. In lieu of using a massage table we may decide that a massage chair is more suitable, or other configuration. This will vary with each individual but we can almost always figure a way to get you safely comfortable for your sessions.
I'm a bit shy/modest about getting body work. Do I have to be unclothed to receive a treatment?
In most cases you can certainly receive certain treatments fully clothed, however even if you are unclothed on the table, I am always vigilant to keep you "draped" appropriately thru the entire session. For both massage or lymph drainage, it is more effective to have skin contact in order for your therapist to be able to easily access and assess the problem areas of the body. Lymph drainage is a subtle touch protocol that requires a very light and precise touch, where working thru clothing is a hinderance to the perception of proper pressure.
What is your cancellation policy?
You will not be charged if you cancel 24 hours in advance or if there is a medical emergency.
I have a friend, significantt other, or family member that would to also get a treatment the same day/location as me . . . is that posible?
Yes! As long as I have a time slot available on the day available for your session, for back to back sessions I can usually accommodate this.
