Swedish Massage

A gentle relaxing massage incorporating effleurage techniques (long, slow manipulations) to soothe the body and mind.  This massage is designed to induce a sense of peace and relaxation, however, does increase blood flow to the body ridding the body of toxins and aiding the immune system.  It reduces stress, both emotional and physical, and is suggested in a regular program of stress management.

Deep Tissue Massage

A very stimulating massage which uses deep compression, friction and kneading to reduce tension, alleviate discomfort and relax cramped muscles.  Trigger point therapy may be used to target areas of extreme stress to encourage muscle fatigue.  Deep Tissue massage is perfect for those who suffer from headaches, lower back pain or stiff shoulders and neck.

Reflexology

An oriental based massage technique that incorporates reflex points which relate to various organs within the body.  Promoting optimal organ function, reflexology stimulates the natural energy of the related organ.  Crystalline like deposits and/or tenderness indicate a dysfunction of the organ related to nerve endings in the feet.  Pressure is applied to clear congestion and restore normal function.

Hot Stone Therapy

This new method of massage is performed by placing heated stones over specific areas of the body.  The warm stones are positioned on the back, head, and between the toes and fingers thus promoting a feeling of back to nature healing.  The therapist then uses the stones to perform the massage for this remarkable treatment.  A massage you must experience.

Trigger Point Therapy

This therapy is used to break cycles of spasm and pain by using concentrated pressure to painful irritated areas of the muscle called trigger points.

• The Benefits Of Massage

What exactly are the benefits of receiving massage or bodywork treatments? Useful for all of the conditions listed below and more, massage can:

• Alleviate low-back pain and improve range of motion.
• Assist with shorter, easier labor for expectant mothers and shorten maternity hospital stays.
• Ease medication dependence.
• Enhance immunity by stimulating lymph flow-the body´s natural defense system.
• Exercise and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.
• Help athletes of any level prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts.
• Improve the condition of the body´s largest organ-the skin.
• Increase joint flexibility.
• Lessen depression and anxiety.
• Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks.
• Pump oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation.
• Reduce post-surgery adhesions and swelling.
• Reduce spasms and cramping.
• Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.
• Release endorphins-amino acids that work as the body´s natural painkiller.
• Relieve migraine pain.

Experts estimate that upwards of 90% of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress. This translates into:

• Decreased anxiety
• Enhanced sleep quality
• Greater energy
• Improved concentration
• Increased circulation
• Reduced fatigue

Furthermore, clients often report a sense of perspective and clarity after receiving a massage. The emotional balance bodywork provides can often be just as vital and valuable as the more tangible physical benefits.

Increase the Benefits with Frequent Visits

Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting massage frequently can do even more. This is the beauty of bodywork. Taking part in this form of regularly scheduled self-care can play a huge part in how healthy you´ll be and how youthful you´ll remain with each passing year. Budgeting time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is truly an investment in your health. And remember: just because massage feels like a pampering treat doesn´t mean it is any less therapeutic. Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish a treatment schedule that best meets your needs.
