Our Philosophy
The Teal Center mission is simple: To provide the best massage therapy, acupuncture, and other natural healing arts to alleviate pain, facilitate healing and enhance the vitality of body mind and spirit.
We believe the body-mind holds the possibility of healing itself when properly supported. Our role is to facilitate each individual's innate healing power.
- We allow the body-mind connection to reveal itself through careful listening and observation.
- We respond to what we observe in each client with compassion and with carefully designed treatment.
- We educate our clients about self-care strategies they can use to enhance their own well being and provide instruction and homework to extend the overall effectiveness of the therapy.
- We educate other health care professionals about the role of our healing modalities in the treatment of pain and the facilitation of healing, and refer to those professionals whenever needed.
- We strive always to work cooperatively to support the client's optimum health.
These shared values allow us to create a work environment that nurtures each of us while we provide outstanding service to our clients.
- We share a commitment to excellence, professional growth, and service.
- We work cooperatively and contribute individually to the good of the whole.
- We are dedicated to maintaining a positive, nurturing working environment based on honest and clear communication, careful listening, and respect and consideration for others.
- We are committed to ongoing professional development, attending clinical trainings regularly, and learning from each other through presentations, practice and supervision.
- We support each other in using our bodies wisely in our work and in maintaining our personal health and well being.
