What style of massage is best for you?
swedish
Swedish massage is best for general relaxation and overall wellness, and uses light to moderate pressure to alleviate general muscle tension and fatigue while giving you an overall feeling of relaxation. Other health benefits of relaxation massage include improved circulation, improved sleep patterns, relief from general muscle pain and tension, and better flexibility.
deep tissue
Deep tissue massage targets and relieves muscle tension and pain by focusing on slower work to access deeper layers of muscle and fascia, where scar tissue and inflammation can cause chronic pain and mobility issues. Deep tissue work doesn’t have to mean “pain”, and your comfort level will always be top priority during our deep tissue sessions.
injury therapy
Therapeutic massage techniques can offer lasting pain relief from common injuries, past and current. Targeted massage therapy can relieve discomfort from conditions such as chronic back pain, sprains and strains, joint replacement surgery (with doctor’s release), sciatica, rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, tennis and golfer's elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, TMJ disorder, whiplash, plantar fasciitis, headaches, and more.
NOTE: Massage is not a replacement for medical treatment when medical treatment is required, but therapeutic massage can help facilitate the healing process as a supplement to medical care.
prenatal
Prenatal massage can help soothe common pregnancy-related ailments such as muscle fatigue, anxiety, minor swelling of feet and ankles, neck and back pain, and tension headaches. Prenatal massage uses light to moderate pressure, and is safe for pregnant women who are not considered "high risk".
reiki
Reiki translates to "spiritually guided life force energy", and is also known as palm healing or energy/chakra cleansing and balancing. Reiki is beneficial in clearing energy blocks that may be manifesting as physiological issues or emotional challenges such as anxiety, depression, or chronic stress, and provides an overall sense of peace, calm, and balance. Reiki requires little to no direct physical contact, and is generally done with the recipient remaining fully clothed. Sessions can be done as a stand-alone therapy, or incorporated into any massage session.
craniosacral
CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that uses very light touch to evaluate and ease tension related to the central nervous system and its effects on the body. CST works with the gentle pulse of the cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. The client remains clothed, and generally reports feeling a state of deep relaxation. CST has shown positive results in treating conditions such as TMJ disorder, autoimmune disorders, post-concussion, and whiplash.
chair massage
Chair massage is generally performed at special events such as staff appreciation days, corporate events, spiritual retreats, weddings and reunions, and health and wellness fairs. These massages target the back, neck, and shoulders, and are usually 10-15 minutes per session. Chair massage is also an option in office for those who may have trouble laying on or climbing on and off of a standard massage table.
