Some conditions such as, muscle related sports injury or muscle tension from work related posture need to be addressed with a specific appropriate type of massage therapy. Sometimes that takes some significant effort from a trained massage therapist, and can even be a little uncomfortable for you as a patient. Our highly trained massage therapists will walk you through what to expect during and after your therapy session.

Our Therapeutic Massage Descriptions

 

Swedish Massage:

This age old technique uses long gliding strokes with light to medium pressure, as well as firm kneading of tight, knotted muscles. This classic type of therapy is especially great for anyone new to massage and offers relaxation with therapeutic benefits. It relieves stress, reduces muscle tension, aids detoxification and improves circulation, bringing on a deep relaxed state.

 

Deep Tissue Massage:

This sports massage technique combines trigger point therapy with myofascial release to relieve knots and scar tissue that cause pain and dysfunction. This is especially well suited to areas of chronic pain, and to conditions caused by old injuries or repetitive overuse.

​

Prenatal  Massage:  

This special technique is used to relieve many of the common discomforts women encounter during pregnancy, including backaches, neck stiffness, leg cramps, headaches, and swelling. The dramatic body changes during this special season are often difficult to navigate. A little help from our skilled therapists can make the journey much easier. It can even help the strained skin tissues elongate, reducing stretch marks and pain. Massage during pregnancy is a wonderful addition to prenatal care.

​

Myofascial Release:

Fascia is the tissue that wraps around our muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and bones.  This structure becomes restricted and bound up due to misuse and injury.  The individual fascia form chains that are continuous from head to toe.  An example of this concept would be the therapist effectively relieving tension in the back and neck by manually stretching the fascia in the legs.
