Swedish Massage:
Otherwise known as “relaxation massage,” is a technique used to support the continuous health and rehabilitative care of our clients. Gentle to medium pressure is used with long-flowing movements for complete relaxation. An increase of circulation and relief of muscle tension are some results of this modality.
Deep Tissue Massage:
Is a technique which targets deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues by realigning through slower movement, firm and deep pressure. It particularly aids chronically tense and contracted areas which cause pain. Trigger point therapy and Sports massage can be included in this technique. Some soreness may occur after the massage.
Shiatsu Massage:
In Japanese, shiatsu means “finger pressure.” For shiatsu massage, the therapist uses varied, rhythmic pressure on certain precise points of the body. These points are called acupressure points, and they are believed to be important for the flow of the body’s vital energy, called chi.
Hot Stone Massage:
Is a specialty massage where our therapist use smooth, heated stones, as an extension of their own hands, to massage different parts of the body. The heat helps warm up tense and tight muscles quicker in order for the therapist to work more deeply.
Oncology Massage:
Is a gentle specialized technique, provided by a properly trained massage therapist, which focuses on safely working with complications of cancer and cancer treatment in various stages: diagnosis, treatment, recovery, survivor, or terminal.
Pre-Natal Massage:
Commonly known as “Mommy Massage,” is a specialized form of Swedish massage which helps alleviate or reduce discomforts, aches, and pains brought upon by pregnancy. Gentle, soothing, and long-gliding strokes are used to bring the client to total relaxation. Consulting with your physician first is required, and massage in the first trimester is usually not recommended.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage:
Is a gentle technique that uses light, rhythmic, spiral-like motions to accelerate the movement of lymphatic fluids in the body. The increase of lymphatic flow assists in removing toxins and water retention and drains any stagnation. Lymphatic massage is designed to improve your bodies ability to remove fluids, cellular debris and toxins through it’s natural drainage system.
Post Surgical Recovery Massage:
Is a massage designed to improve circulation, decrease swelling, and facilitate the body’s own absorption of accumulated fluid. This type of massage is closely related to the lymphatic massage but is more directed to areas that are effected by surgery. Gentle smooth strokes to distribute the accumulated fluid, gentle circular massaging to improve blood-flow to the affected area help the body’s own circulation and drainage system improve healing and appearance. This type of massage like the lymphatic massage is geared towards post operative plastic surgery patients, but may also benefit those with non-plastic surgical procedures in a therapeutic manner.
