Deep Tissue Massage reaches deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues. It is used to treat chronic tension in the form of knots and myofascial restrictions. This can be particularly beneficial for athletes, those with chronic injuries, repetitive strain, those who feel a lot of stagnancy in their body, those with a very physically demanding lifestyle, etc. If you enjoy deeper pressure, please let us know. All of our treatments include a mix of 'deep tissue' & 'relaxation', however we cater your specific treatment to what works best for you.
The goal of Therapeutic Relaxation Massage is to melt away muscle tension and facilitate fresh circulation throughout the whole body. We want to create time and space for you to relax & unwind from the busyness of life. Let's give you a break and let your mind and body benefit from decreased muscle toxins, increased oxygen levels in the blood, hydrated, more flexible soft tissue from fresh circulation and an overall calming of your nervous system.
Cupping is a traditional method that helps to relieve chronic muscle tension and pain faster than massage therapy alone. It is used during a massage to promote blood flow, release toxins, and work through myofascial patterns of restriction that could be causing dysfunction and discomfort. The benefits are many. In discussing your experience with your body, we can determine if and how cupping can be helpful for you.
Prenatal massages can be life-changing during your pregnancy. As your body is shifting and adapting at a rapid rate, there can be new and different feelings, aches and pains nearly everyday. Let us help you to be as comfortable as possible throughout this journey.
Yes, massage is great for kids and teens!
Kids can sometimes be affected by our busy schedules, always trying to keep up with the go go go of daycare, school, sports, social life, etc. Massage is a great modality for easing anxiety of mind and how it is stored in the body. We have had many great outcomes with teens going through the pressures of life and using massage to introduce a sense of mindfulness and calm through stressful chapters of life. Massage is also an incredibly helpful modality to reduce the intensity of growing pains, often experienced in the legs/calves/feet.
Often, clients chose to book 30, 45 or 60mins for this treatment. This is a very relaxing treatment, while also doing deeper work into structures causing tension patterns. Beneficial for anyone who tends to hold stress in these areas, anyone experiencing headaches, migraines, insomnia, grief, etc. Some clients prefer to come for shorter appointments, more frequently. If you'd like to refresh your commitment to your self-care, this is a great treatment to look-forward to once every 2 weeks.
