TYPES OF MASSAGE

Deep Tissue
A deep pressure massage, beneficial for those with chronic pain that uses slow strokes and direct pressure to access the deepest layers of muscle and fascia to release chronic patterns of tension in the body.

Hot Stone

PreNatal
Massage that focuses on relaxation and pain relief for the expecting mom.

Sports
A blend of gliding, kneading, passive stretching, compression, and deep tissue work to ease muscle soreness, return muscles to their normal resting length, and increase flexibility thereby maximizing your workout. Sports massage is beneficial before and after events as well as during training.

Swedish

TMJ

Trigger Point/ Neuromuscular Therapy
A trigger point is a constriction within a taut band of muscle that refers pain to other areas of the body when pressure is applied to them. Trigger point therapy focuses on these points and should generally only be used by someone who will seek regular treatment until the problem is resolved.
