The Refresher
This Swedish style massage is designed to manipulate the muscles in the upper torso and lower part of one's body including legs and arms. The application of smooth effleurage strokes along with gentle vibration & shaking will be performed in an effort to stimulate endorphins and promote a general sense of well-being.
The Rejuvenator
This deeper tissue massage is designed to release muscle tension, increase circulation and reduce your body's reaction to stress. Your practitioner will use elbow techniques along with stretches and joint mobilization to restore your body's natural rhythms.
Essential Energy
This style of therapy is based on the principle that reflex points located on one's hands, ears and feet are related to our internal organs and glands. This treatment is designed to help stimulate the normal function of organs by clearing nervous and tissue congestion, removing accumulated toxins, and encouraging the body's own innate healing ability through a series of tiny strokes and specific holds at various reflex points. Choose an hour long session of feet or hand reflexology and get ear reflexology for free!
Power Booster
This sports massage style is designed to increase flexibility, relieve soreness and speed muscle recovery resulting from overexertion. A vigorous massage utilizing friction, compression, shaking/vibration and pressure points work as well as stretching directed at the major muscle groups will be performed. This therapy is ideal before and after physical activity.
The Activator
This session includes Trigger Point Therapy techniques to help alleviate localized areas of deep tenderness that often produce referred pain. Client participation is necessary to achieve desired effect.
Peaceful Harmony
Fibromyalgia therapy uses extremely light touch when coming into contact with the body. Slow steady effleurage strokes and light kneading in conjunction with supportive joint manipulation can assist in relieving pain. Minimal pressure is applied to the body's tender spots in an effort to increase range of motion and release facia.
Massage for Seniors
Geriatric massage is a form of massage designed to meet the specific needs of the elderly population. It involves the use of hands to manipulate the soft tissues of the body to improve blood circulation, relieve pain and increase range of motion. Active or passive movement of the joints may also be part of geriatric massage experience. Geriatric massage can help them maintain and improve their overall health, as well as regain certain physical functions that have been reduced or lost due to aging. In addition, it can relieve anxiety and depression and provide comfort to touch-deprived elderly patients.
