MASSAGE SERVICES

All massage treatments are tailored to each individual client's needs and they may include several different modalities such as...

SWEDISH MASSAGE
*What most people think of as a general relaxation massage, the pressure is firm but gentle. This type of massage improves circulation, ease muscle aches and create a sense of well-being.

MUSCULAR THERAPY
*Designed to address chronic tension patterns like nagging low back, shoulder or neck pain. This therapy uses specific techniques and a variety of different pressure, speeds and rhythm.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
*This type of massage reaches beyond the superficial layers of the muscle, to affect change in the deeper layers of muscle tissue. Techniques do not need to be painful in order to be effective. Melting though, not pushing through this tissue is the goal.

FASCIAL WORK
*Uses long, slow, stretching strokes to release the tension in the body's soft connective tissue or "fascial net" which surrounds and separates all body tissue and creates your body's structural integrity.

TRIGGER POINT THERAPY
*Targets the hyper-irritated trigger points in the muscle which often refer pain to other parts of the body. Direct pressure is applied to these "trigger points" to interrupt the nervous system out of the pain-spasm-pain cycle. This work can be intense and a good dialog between client and therapist is necessary.

HOT STONE MASSAGE
*Involves placing water heated, volcanic stones on various places of the body, followed by a deep tissue massage with the heated stones. This treatment will relieve pain and promote harmony & balance in the body. Great for arthritis and fibromyalgia.
