Depending on the overall wellness plan set by you and our staff: any or all of the following techniques below may be applied during your massage session.

GENERAL MASSAGES

Sports Massage
An upbeat massage designed to flush toxins from tired, sore overworked muscles. Assisted stretching is performed to increase flexibility and to manipulate muscle tissue to its relaxation state. This is ideal for those who engage in vigorous exercise activities. Moderate to deep pressure is applied.

Deep Tissue Massage
An excellent option for those who have specific areas of chronic pain and muscle tension. Deep tissue aims to promote recovery of injured and strained muscles. Neuromuscular manual therapy techniques such as myofascial release and trigger point therapy will be combined with deep pressure strokes.
