The perfect combination for life-changes, new year beginnings, and when you’re ready to start a new chapter.
3 Sessions that build on one-another in texture and pressure as the muscle tenacity changes and becomes more pliable. Meridians open & body systems flow better. As this happens, bodywork pressure grows more heavier handed into Thai moves to squeeze the tension from your body like toothpaste from a tube.
You will journal and make gradual, baby-step changes to your habits and lifestyle, creating leaps and bounds in no time. The journaling will help you solidify habits and realize the transformation in just weeks.
AS a thank you for investing in the both of us, you will receive a couple things:
My “Pain Eraser” Salve
Ionic Foot Detox for you and a friend
A seat at the next Gong Sound Bath Class
A holistic, energy-based therapy developed by Dr. Randolph Stone that restores balance to the body's life energy (prana/chi) through four pillars: energetic bodywork, nutrition, exercise (Polarity yoga stretches), and self-awareness/counseling.
Fully clothed, you rest comfortably on the table on your back while the practitioner uses gentle, intentional touch—often bipolar contacts (hands on opposing poles of the body)—to detect and release energy blockages, clear tension patterns, and encourage natural flow.
Sessions typically begin with reflective listening and intention-setting, followed by hands-on work that may include light to medium touch, rocking, or off-body energy balancing. You might experience deep relaxation, warmth, tingling, spontaneous movements, emotional release, or profound stillness.
Helpful for:
stress, anxiety & emotional tension
chronic pain & fatigue
headaches & digestive issues
trauma recovery
overall vitality & feeling "out of balance"
Most people leave feeling lighter, more energized, centered, and reconnected to their innate vitality—as if stagnant energy has finally been freed to move.
Wear comfortable, loose clothing and bring an open mind to your body's unique energy needs.
Looking forward to starting your polarity journey.
A gentle, hands-on session laying on your back that supports your nervous system’s natural ability to release tension and restore balance. Fully clothed, you rest comfortably on the table while the practitioner uses light, listening touch—often at the sacrum, head, or feet—to follow the subtle rhythms of cerebrospinal fluid, dural membranes, and connective tissue.
No forcing, only following: your body leads the process. You may experience deep stillness, spontaneous unwinding movements, warmth, tingling, emotional release, or profound relaxation.
Helpful for:
chronic stress & anxiety
headaches, neck/jaw tension
trauma & concussion effects
sleep issues
feeling physically/emotionally “stuck”
Most people leave feeling lighter, more grounded, spacious, and deeply rested—as if long-held patterns have finally softened.
Wear comfortable, loose clothing and bring open curiosity for whatever your system is ready to release.
Looking forward to working with you.
They say “stress kills…”
This is a 60-minute follow-up session. (Typically, 3 suggested within a month to begin program, then spacing session out accordingly)
You will move to vibration plate or directly to table work, while the discussion continues.
Please wear warm, comfortable clothing because we will not do any sheet draping. Lay back and relax while your meridians are cleared and old blockages broken up via intuitive Qigong, & meridian tapping. This also effectively stimulates the internal organs, the brain, the lymph system, and the entire body in general.
Every person is different. Every session is different, but the first “good opening” of the system is generally the same as described.
Feedback typically includes great sleep, motivation & renewed enthusiasm, decreased pain, finding a groove, making amends, cleaning/cleaning out closets (effectively mirroring the changes within the physical surroundings.)
Intake, discussion, & goals.
We become acquainted, which moves the emotional waters, often times intertwined with physical pains held within the body, because the physical body mirrors the emotional body. It’s why they say “stress kills…”

Wonderful on its own or even better in combination with a detoxing foot soak before and a foot mask afterward.
1-hour foot & lower leg treatment. Detoxifying & stimulates the entire body via the reflexes of the foot to the whole body.
Dowel work typically has some level of pain as adhesions are broken up. Please wear loose pants or shorts that can easily raise above the knee.
Bring circulation back into the area and the tissue changes. Swelling reduces within the first few sessions, and feeling begins to return to the area.
3-month program establishes your comfortable maintenance &/or self-care program. Includes 3-month memberships to both the Chicago Health & Fitness gym as well as the Unwind training room & class membership access.
Journaling, bodywork, education, potential supplements, gradual habit changes, training and then access to therapy tools between sessions.
The physical body is a reflection of the emotional body. This is why some can eat everything without care, and others who choose so carefully, nothing seems to change. Energetically speaking, they may be holding onto something. Weight loss-mining helps to change the physical body as well as mining the underlying causations. Body contouring combs the fascia and connective tissue to restructure the body and eliminate adhesions restricting ROM or trapping fat, forming cellulite in the upper arms & legs etc
Intake and Consultation for 3-Month Program for any of the following:
General Physical or Emotional Wellness, Lymphedema, Weight loss Mining, Lung Capacity, Addictions, and Stress & Anxiety.
We cover realistic goals, strategies, and what success looks like to you.
This session is only for those who are ready to take the journey.
You will learn physical techniques that you can use to open the lungs & diaphragm, which in-turn, opens your lungs’ physical capacity like an accordion.
Over a surprisingly short time, you will notice a marked increase in your physical capacity to breathe deeper and fuller, making life in general, easier.
From going up the stairs to running faster and conserving energy, you will gain a new respect for your body when you’re done.
Create your own group class - Onsite or at your location (4-6 weeks recommended)
*Included in Level 1 Membership!
We will cover the in-take, background, goals, and what success looks like to you. In these base sessions we begin with some techniques and build the structure and help with root-cause triggers and perspective. You can continue on with individual sessions or be eligible to join the group in a journey of the month.
Control Room: Lay back and drift into the journey of the month group hypnosis where I guide the class to rearrange their body’s internal controls and gauges in order to recalibrate the physical & emotional body.
*2 Private Sessions & Journey of the Month included in Level 2 Memberships & Certain Programs
Sciatica Clinic
If you suffer from Sciatica, this may be for you. Because of the nature of this class, 101's should bring their own partner, but drop-ins can pair up if they're comfortable with one another. Basic bodywork moves to loosen the muscles of the entire legs, glutes, hips, and low to mid-back. May times this is enough to relieve the pain, so this is a great class for couples and caretakers as well as athletes.
“Clinics” will rotate between various areas of focus.
Included in Level 1 Memberships
Great class for couples & caregivers. Partnered class where you learn easy moves to help at-home care and rehabilitation assistance to those who need it or want to be a better partner.
You will learn how to better connect and communicate, while learning easy moves that deliver your healing touch. (This class includes your partner)
Help take control over your addictions, anxiety, weight loss, & more. A perfect complementary therapy to weight loss mining. Control Room sessions help you navigate your own personal controls to dial in your best personal homeostasis for physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
We will cover your intake, goals and what looks like success to you. This concept is more about taking back control and restoring balance over number of days without, because if you don’t address the underlying issue, the addiction will jump to another outlet.
These 2 initial sessions set you up for the monthly group session or recording, where we will explore a different aspect, such as weight loss, or relaxation, improved memory, etc.
First, we build the foundation and create your personal control room together, which becomes a visual metaphor for your body’s physical, emotional, and spiritual systems.
Eventually there will be a recorded option for those who cannot/don’t want to attend in-person.
Members will be taken through a journey of the month, addressing some of the biggest challenges we face - crippling stress and anxiety, memory issues, money insecurities, addictions & compulsive behaviors.
These journeys are fun, relaxing, and highly beneficial.
Includes 2-3 minutes on the vibration plate each if time permits (squeeze this in at the beginning or end of class to help process emotions out of the body easier).

A series of easy techniques - movements to help bring you and your family back to normal within a minute or two for quickly burning off the fiery energy, either in the moment or to help address pent-up anger and frustration. Simple exercises help move the excess energy through the body in a productive, non-destructive way.
Not for everyone! (Must use SAFELY with a partner)
The Bi-Polar Roller is and intense acupressure treatment for your feet. The first several treatments hurt, but soon it becomes addictive as adhesions are broken up over time. You stand on the pipe, while your partner rolls back and forth, the pressure of your bodyweight hitting your feet from mid-heel to curling toes on the soles. Remember to point toes up as it gets further to the heel to counter the weight and keep you from slipping off. (See.. not for everyone…)
Use the device by the massage tables so you can lean over and place your hands on it, which gives balance and removes a portion of your full bodyweight. If you take the chance and you bust your ass, you bust your ass. But you bust your ass on your own dime because UNWIND - BODY & MIND INC accepts this as our waiver of responsibility.
(Why it’s great)
Everything is connected, and reflexively, your feet are a representation of your entire body while other ways of thinking layer on the feet representing your past, energetically. I theorize the feet are well worth the cost of pampering and professional attention. My friend owns an amazing new place downtown, called Sarahndipity in Hobart. (Go check them out - they’re the beeeest)
So! By purchasing this service, you waive any claim against Unwind - Body & Mind Inc., or Chicago Health & Fitness for what you do or how you may hurt yourself while using this piece of equipment (or any others you may use).
*Access Included in Level 2 Membership
Vibration plate goes through an entire cycle of various speeds.
Improves stability, hip and back mobility, it’s great for lymph movement digestive stimulation, loosens tense muscles, and most importantly to me - the vibration helps to process any old traumas from the body tissues in a quick, non-thought-provoking manner. The best part is the 10 seconds right after it stops when your whole body tingles.
*Included in Level 1 Membership
*5 minutes Included in at the start of every full bodywork or hypnosis session while we acquaint ourselves
*3 minutes each before, during or after each class, time-permitting
Get in where you fit in and explore settings - this machine is incredible for processing emotional trauma out of the body in a relaxing way during your journey and helps to prime the body for full session work.
Comfrey is densely infused into olive oil and then a gauze is soaked and placed on the afflicted area. In the case of the poultice, the herbs and oil are placed on the body to set in under a covering and heated with hot stones or a heating pad to help the healing oil penetrate into the skin as it is our biggest organ and absorbs the properties through prolonged, direct contact.
*Included in Level 2 Memberships
Lay back on a yoga mat with your legs slightly elevated, ankles resting onto a machine that sways from side to side at varying speeds.
Faster is not better, each speed focusing on a different area of the back, while improving lymph movement and restoring healthy energy flow, while moving out blockages. That’s why they call some the Chi Machine. The best part is the 10 seconds after it stops when your body tingles.
*Included with Level 1 Memberships
