Therapeutic Massage

You hear the word massage and instantly your think of relaxation, however, massage can be not only relaxing but therapeutic as well. We offer Myofascial, Thai, Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular, Swedish massages, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and Cupping. You can also add additional tools such as hot stones and upgraded oils and lotions to further enhance your experience. With most massage styles the Massage Therapist can utilize oils and different tools such as rollers and hot stones (for an additional price) in conjunction to their hands so they can properly work and relax the muscles.

Thai Massage is when the therapist will utilize many parts of their arms, not just hands, as well as possibly even their feet to help you to stretch and relax muscles. You will likely get as much of a workout as the Massage Therapist as you will be on the floor doing different yoga poses with the Therapist’s assistance.

Deep Tissue Massage is one we have all heard of but, what is it?  Deep Tissue Massage is used to help relieve chronic pain and injury pain.  It is done with slow firm strokes that really get down into the deeper muscle tissues to release and relax them.

Swedish Massage, this is the one everyone knows about, the one we all think of when we hear “massage”.  Swedish Massage is more than just for relaxation though, it also helps to improve circulation, relieve tension, and increase oxygen in the blood.

Myofascial Massage is used extensively to increase range of motion and to reduce stiffness by focusing on pain derived from myofascial tissues, which are the membranes that wrap, connect, and support the muscles.

Neuromuscular Massage is a combination of Acupressure, Myofascial Massage and Deep Tissue Massage used to alleviate and release pain by targeting trigger points and pressures.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a cutting edge technique in the massage field that works to reduce swelling and speed injury recovery. The therapist uses light touch to gently promote the flow of lymph fluid and clear lymph blockages or sluggish pathways. Our office is equipped to use MLD on clients with an intact immune system.

Cupping is a form of massage therapy that decompresses soft tissues using vacuum suction. This technique can increase circulation to injured areas, reduce painful trigger points, decrease toxins by pulling them to the surface of the skin, and can also provide relief from chronic pain.
