Swedish, neuromuscular, deep tissue, and sports massage techniques may be used in this unique personalized therapeutic massage. Get all the benefits that massage can offer in one treatment.
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Neuromuscular Therapy is a form of soft tissue manipulation that aims to treat underlying causes of chronic pain, involving the muscular and nervous systems. This medically-oriented form of massage addresses trigger points, circulation, nerve compression, postural issues and bio-mechanical problems that can be caused by repetative movement injuries.

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Sports massage involves a number of different techniques such as effleurage friction, petrissage vibration, shaking, compression, broadening strokes, direct pressure, cross fiber friction, range of motion, and stretching. This therapy focuses on enhancing circulation, increasing tissue elasticity, reducing muscle tension, and post-event recovery. Sports massage is ideal for physical activity and endurance.
Pre-natal massage focuses on the Mother-to-be as her body experiences the dramatic changes of pregnancy. This therapy promotes circulation, body tone, and reduction in physical and mental fatigue.
Reflexology: Pressure applied to specific points on the feet and hands sends a calming message to the central nervous system, which promotes relaxation and healing in the body.
Comfort touch is a nurturing, encompassing form of acupressure that is safe and appropriate for the elderly and chronically ill, and also for anyone seeking relief from the stresses of everyday life. This therapy is very effective during end of life care, and for anyone seeking a more gentle touch.

The salt used in this stone massage is found near the base of the Himalayan mountains and contains 84 naturally occurring minerals and elements. During the massage, warmed Himalayan salt stones are used to apply pressure using Swedish massage techniques. The minerals are absorbed through the skin resulting in a profound sense of well-being. Aromatherapy massage oils help the stones glide smoothly over the skin and add to the luxury of the massage.
An Ionic foot detox is the safest and most effective natural healing therapy to balance the body’s natural energy system. This machine uses negative, and in some cases, positive ions to bring the body back into balance, thereby strengthening the immune system, assisting with internal body cleanse, and improving overall health. By using the principles of reflexology and the science of ionization and osmosis, the water enters the body through the 4,000 large pores of the feet. The ions are transported throughout the body by the circulatory and lymphatic systems, neutralizing oppositely charged toxins in the cells that are normally slow to exit the body. The body’s organs become energized and stimulated to function optimally, allowing the body to better rid itself of these toxins through its normal processes of urination, defecation, and perspiration. Enhance the detox foot bath benefits by adding the use of the infrared FIR belt. The infrared heat multiplies the detox effects, increasing the circulation and metabolic rate in the body, allowing a faster and more efficient detox.

Enjoy the hydrocollator heat packs during any massage therapy service to promote a deeper level of relaxation.
This deep, soothing, moist heat treatment is an effective method to ease muscle pain and tension. Hydrocollator heat packs are a combination of bentonite clay and other natural fillings. They are removed from 160° water and wrapped in a cover to prevent discomfort. When applied to the affected area, the moisture from the heat packs delivers the heat to the deeper layers of muscle and into the joints resulting in pain relief, elimination of stiffness, and increased circulation. Some conditions that benefit from the use of hydrocollator packs include arthritis, low back pain, TMJ, neck spasms, migraine headaches, and chronic injuries caused by repetition and overuse. Patients greatly benefit from this treatment when it is incorporated with therapeutic massage.
