Enjoy a relaxing, full-body massage. This massage will be done on a massage table with the use of oil or lotion. You will be asked to undress to your level of comfort before the massage. Your privacy is very important to me so you will have warm linens to drape over you. This massage offers:
- complete relaxation
- increased circulation through long, repetitive strokes
- light-medium pressure
- stress relief
Benefit from this therapeutic massage. I only do 90 minutes or more for this massage because it is very slow work. These are a few benefits that you can experience from receiving this type of work:
- breaks up adhesions (also known as "knots")
- decreases pain
- increases energy and range of motion
- addresses specific issues
- assists in postural realignment
- allows tension caused by emotional holding to release
This massage is another form of deep tissue but is much more specific. Although it is very specific, I will always start assessing the part of the body you have the most pain with first. This work, just like deep tissue, is also very slow. This one is done with no oil or lotion though. I will also incorporate stretching after the massage. Below are some of the benefits of this massage:
- addresses specific problems
- assists in self-healing
- realigns muscle fibers
- breaks up scar tissue and adhesions
- speeds up healing by increasing circulation in problem area
- decreases pain
- lengthens muscle fibers
- helps. restore elasticity
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function.
Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of massage therapy. The word Shiatsu comes from two Japanese words - "shi" (finger) and "atsu" (pressure). In addition to the direct stimulation of pressure points along the energy pathways of your body, gentle stretching techniques are applied over a wider area of the body to integrate the point work and encourage the flow of Chi (energy) throughout the body. Shiatsu is a meditative healing art that honors the body, mind and spirit.
Thai massage is more energizing and rigorous than most other forms of massage therapy. It's also called Thai Yoga massage, because I use my hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like postures and stretches. My clients say Thai massage is like doing yoga without doing any of the work. No oil is applied, so you are fully dressed during the session. A single Thai massage session will help you release stress and relieve pain, and help you function more effectively at work and home.
