MASSAGES

 

Aromatherapy

Using essential oils (extracted from herbs, flowers, resin, woods, and roots), this form of massage aids in relaxation, improved circulation, and the healing of wounds.  Blended by the massage therapist with a carrier oil (i.e. almond oil, etc.) for use during your massage, each essential oil has its own unique characteristics and benefits designed to enhance your massage experience.

Cupping

As a modern form of the ancient art of cupping therapy, a cupping massage uses silicone suction cups and negative pressure to pull, lift, open, and expand the body’s soft tissues.  This type of massage is particularly helpful to relieve discomfort or pain in certain concentrated parts of the body, as it circulates blood flow and eliminates muscle tension in a gentle manner that allows for benefits similar to a deep tissue massage.

Deep Tissue

Designed to utilize deep-muscle massage techniques and affect the body’s sub-layer of musculature and fascia, this type of massage helps with chronic muscular pain and injury rehabilitation and reduces inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendinitis.  Generally integrated with other massage techniques, deep tissue massages relax your muscles and allow the practitioner to impact deeper musculature and relieve pain and discomfort.

Hotstone/Aromatherapy

Leveraging the benefits of an aromatherapy massage, this service includes the use of hot stones which melts away tension, eases muscle stiffness, and increases circulation and metabolism.  By using heated smooth basalt volcanic stones at key points on the body, deeper muscle relaxation is available.

Prenatal

Performed by a trained professional, a prenatal massage uses specific techniques that can reduce pregnancy discomforts and concerns and enhance the physiological and emotional well-being of both mother and fetus.

Reiki-Infused

Enjoy this amazing combination of a relaxation massage infused with Reiki, and clear your chakras, release stress and tension, and realign and invigorate your energy.

Relaxation

Designed to release stress and clear your mind, this service uses a combination of kneading, rolling, vibrational, percussive, and tapping movements, with the application of oil or cream, to manipulate the soft tissues of the body to reduce friction on the skin and within the body.  Benefits of a relaxation massage include (but are not limited to): general relaxation, improved circulation, and release of discomfort and muscular tension.assasaas
