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 relaxation, relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, and greater flexibility.
Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
Hot Stone Therapy is a great addition to any of the massage modalities. It's simply amazing with Swedish or MFT. However, I can add it to Deep Tissue and Shiatsu, as well.
This modality is available for mobile massage. I have a mobile heating case that holds enough stones to service up to 4 clients.
Myofascial therapy massage is a technique used to address injuries and discomfort, reducing pain and increasing range of motion. Myofascial therapy massage differs from other types of massage in that it targets the fascia - the membrane surrounding muscles - rather than the muscle itself. Since fascia completely encases every muscle in the body, imbalances in the fascia can have serious effects on your range of motion and comfort level. While other forms of massage can overlook the fascia, myofascial therapy massage focuses specifically on releasing tension and improving range of motion, comfort.
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of massage therapy. The word Shiatsu comes from two Japanese words - \"shi\" (finger) and \"atsu\" (pressure). In addition to the direct stimulation of pressure points along the energy pathways of your body, gentle stretching techniques are applied over a wider area of the body to integrate the point work and encourage the flow of Chi (energy) throughout the body. Shiatsu is a meditative healing art that honors the body, mind and spirit.
Shiatsu is very modest and discreet. Massage is done over the clothing. Please wear comfortable, stretchy gym style shorts, pants, or leggings with a loose t-shirt. Neither lotion nor oil is used during the massage.
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 this kind of massage, and that you should drink plenty of water to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Targeted Deep Tissue during Swedish Massage is an effective way to decrease pain in areas that frequently are irritated or tight. It is a great combination to relieve pain points while enjoying a relaxing and overall comforting massage. As long as Deep Tissue makes up less than 30% of the overall massage there is no upcharge on a typical Swedish Massage. However, if you are looking for a complete Deep Tissue session, there is an upcharge.
Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension.
You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage.
It is an quick and easy way to reward your staff, in your workplace. Each one of your co-workers and staff can receive a relaxing 15 to 30 massage that focuses on those areas of high stress and tension; the upper back, neck, and arms.
Minimum booking is for 2 hours with a 15 minute break or 3 hours with two 10 minute breaks.
