Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is the foundation of most treatments. The style
utilizes long, flowing strokes, often but not necessarily in the
direction of the heart. These techniques are used for both relaxation
and treatment focused sessions.
Office Workers
Massage
Are you kept in a chair by our modern lifestyle? Why not come in
for a massage to take care of the stiffness and pain associated
with long periods of time at a computer. Most people are a serious
injury waiting to happen or rather, a minor injury with serious
consequences. Take an hour for preventative health care with the
most natural and obvious healing method in the world.
Deep Tissue
Massage
Deep tissue techniques are generally designed for more focused massage
work: perfect for the weekend warrior, professional athlete or those
that suffer from chronic pain due to injury. Starting superficially
and slowly easing into the depth of the muscle, the practitioner
will check with client comfort frequently and address any congested
tissue. Very little oil is used as the pressure doesn't travel much
over the skin.
Pre &
Post Natal Massage
Many women suffer from aches and pains, stiffness and tension during
and after pregnancy. A tranquil and stress reducing massage can
help to relieve problems such as muscle cramps and myofascial pain,
especially in the lower back, neck, hips and legs.
Myofascial
Release
What is fascia?
Fascia or connective tissue surrounds your
muscles, bones and organs. It is a strong yet mobile sheet of continuous
tissue that envelopes the entire body. A more intense treatment,
Myofascial Release is a connective tissue technique using no oils
or lotions. Its non-gliding tractioning and stretch combined with
movement and other soft tissue techniques creates noticeable improvement
in tissue length. This technique will...
-enhance muscle performance
-improve quality and quantity of movement
-reduce pain
-help normalize alignment
-decrease muscle tension
Whether you have chronic pain, old injuries,
athletic needs, or spent too much time at the computer, this would
be an excellent treatment choice.
