Customized Massage Therapy Techniques
We offer a holistic approach in response to your individual needs. This means we use varied techniques during each session to ease your specific pain points by releasing tight muscles and connective tissue. Our therapeutic massage and reflexology techniques include but are not limted to:
- Deep Tissue Massage - is also called deep muscle therapy or deep tissue therapy. It is an umbrella term for bodywork techniques that work deeply into the muscles and connective tissue to release chronic aches and pains.
- Foot Reflexology - an ancient healing art that uses a compression/release technique to promote overall health, by releasing blockages of energy in nerve pathways that correspond to every system and organ of the human anatomy. Reflexology increases circulation and boosts the supply of oxygen and nutrients to your muscles and other tissues, speeds the elimination of waste products (such as lactic & uric acids and stress hormones) reduces muscle tension and soreness, and improves the immune system. Our reflexology sessions end with a foot massage, leaving you with a feeling of restored balance of mind and body. With over 7,200 nerve endings in the sole of each foot, you are certain to experience an incredible relaxation response. Learn more about reflexology.
- Myofascial Release - is a gentle release technique that uses stretching of the tissue, and heat impaired by the practitioner’s hands, to help produce a softer consistency of fascial tissue. 'Myo' means muscle and 'fascia' is the elastic connective tissue wrapped around muscles and the other parts of the body.
- Ortho-Bionomy - is a technique where points of pain are located and then the body is gently moved to fold around the points and rest in a position where there is no pain. Positions where muscles are shortened are used. In doing this, reflexes are initiated, releasing muscles and freeing the body of its stresses and tensions.
- Prenatal Massage - is a massage for pregnant women that addresses the specific needs of a woman during pregnancy, such as discomforts in the lower back, feet, and legs. Our clients must be through the first trimester to receive this massage.
- Acupressure - a form of bodywork based in traditional Chinese meridian theory, in which acupuncture points are pressed to stimulate the flow of energy of chi.
- Craniosacral Therapy - is a light touch manipulation of the head and bottom of the spine to restore optimal cerebrospinal fluid movement. 'Cranio' refers to the cranium, which is the bony part of the head. 'Sacral' refers to the bony bottom of the spine called the sacrum.
- Trigger Point Therapy - a form of neuromuscular therapy that utilizes deep compression on individual areas of hypersensitivity in muscles, ligaments, tendons, and fascia. These trigger points are defined by their referral of pain to distant locations in muscles, connective tissues, and organs.
- Swedish Massage - a scientific system of manipulations on the muscles and connective tissues of the body for the purpose of relaxation, rehabilitation, or health maintenance.
