Customized massage sessions are designed by our talented massage therapists to fit your body’s specific needs during each visit. All of our therapists have been trained in a number of techniques. These massage styles include, but are not limited to, the following techniques:
Swedish Massage
Oils or lotions are applied to the skin with light gliding strokes. A variety of strokes such as gliding, kneading, lifting, rolling, rocking, compression, and percussion are operated while gradually moving deeper into the muscle tissue. These techniques help to stimulate circulation, relieve muscle tension and soreness, promote deep relaxation, stimulate the immune system, increase flexibility and mental awareness, and the list goes on and on. It is one of the most widely used massage modalities due to its effectiveness in healing the body.

Deep Tissue Massage
When working with chronic areas of pain, misalignment, or repetitive stress injuries, it is generally more beneficial to massage deeper into the muscle tissue. Focusing on specific areas of chronic and acute pain, this technique uses penetrating, compressive stokes and cross fiber frictions, to access deep layers of muscle and connective tissues.This helps to reduce hypersensitivity, muscle spasms, and referred pain patterns.

Trigger Point
A form of deep tissue massage focusing on hyper irritable areas occurring as small knots in the muscles throughout the body. These areas of contracted muscles can transfer or “refer” pain and tenderness into other parts of the body. In some cases, the referred pain (from an active trigger point) can mimic other ailments. It is important that the client is active in breathing deeply to help with the relief of trigger points, as the direct pressure technique is applied to these areas. This can be effective in one session, but many times will take a series of two or more to fully release the muscle contraction.
