• Swedish Massage is the perfect choice for relaxation and stress management. It consists of long flowing strokes to soothe and reduce tension in the body.
• Deep Tissue Massage utilizes strong pressure to target deep layers of muscle, releasing tension in over-stressed areas. Great for athletes looking to increase performance or for post competition recovery.
• Myofascial Release is a specific technique that targets and stretches fasica (connective tissue) of the body. Clients often describe the myofascial experience as a “stretching” or “pulling” sensation. A perfect complement to deep tissue massage, it is often incorporated into deep tissue sessions.
• Neuromuscular Therapy is a technique which focuses on relieving Trigger Points and treating whole muscles. Trigger points can refer pain, so releasing them will often reduce pain in a wide area.
