Swedish/Relaxation
This is the type of massage everyone thinks about when they hear massage. Long gliding, relaxing strokes. Swedish massage is the technique when you want to ZEN and CHILL. It involves a variety of techniques to soften tissues, release tension, and reduce stress and anxiety. This technique has a calming effect on the nervous system. It’s the fluffy massage that most people think of when they see massage being portrayed on TV.
Deep Tissue
One of the most requested services, Deep Tissue massage is the GO TO when you need to dig out a knot/adhesion or to address those stubborn overused muscles of the body. This massage technique focuses on the deep layers of muscle tissue. It is used to release chronic muscle tension or break up adhesion through slower strokes and more direct, deep pressure.
Sports Massage
You don’t have to be a athlete to get the benefits of this type of massage. Sports massage is invigorating and stimulating massage technique that uses many different stretches and rhythmic techniques to help change dysfunctional holding patterns of overuse in the body. It’s a great massage for pre and post events like- Ragnar races/Crossfit competitions/5ks’/marathons/triathlons or the hamstring you pulled getting up off the couch.
Aromatherapy
Can’t break the patterns of stress?!….. Aromatherapy can be the GAME CHANGER you’ve been looking for. The sense of smell is one of the most powerful senses in the balancing of the systems that manage emotion and behavior. The olfactory nerve bundle is the group of nerves that run from the nose directly to the part of the brain that regulates emotions, memories and hormone production. (Pretty cool huh?)
This therapy incorporates the use of Young Living Therapeutic Grade essential oils (much higher standard than Organic) incorporated throughout the massage. The oils are applied directly to the body and the client has the choice between relaxing, soothing scents like Lavender & Chamomile or oils like Orange or Peppermint that are more stimulating.
You will leave this massage much more emotionally balanced and you may make more friends because you will smell SO GOOD!
Raindrop Therapy
This therapy which is similar to Aromatherapy is in a class by itself! This POWERFUL treatment incorporates specific Therapeutic Grade essential oils, Vita Flex, reflexology, energy and massage techniques which are applied on various areas of the body to bring structural and electrical alignment.
It has been used to help the body to rapidly cleanse and detox, especially in situations when the body needs added immune support. This treatment is a favorite of people who struggle with Lyme disease or other chronic conditions.
Hot Stone Massage
“Everybody must get stoned” Bob Dylan. We’re pretty sure Bob Dylan meant everyone needs to try a HOT STONE MASSAGE once in their life! This technique is a specialty massage where the therapist uses smooth, heated basalt lava stones as an extension of their own hands or by placing them on the body. The heat can be remarkably calming and help warm up tight muscles so the therapist can work more deeply, more quickly.
Our clients remark on how DEEPLY relaxing the technique is, especially during the winter months when your shoulders are pinned to your ears. Feel like getting “STONED” now?
*Not recommended for anyone that has a history of heart condition or high blood pressure
Pregnancy Massage
For the mamas’ to be, this is a VIP massage designed special for you and baby. Massage therapy during pregnancy is a wonderful complementary choice for prenatal care. It is a healthy way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness. Massage relieves many of the normal discomforts experienced during pregnancy, such as backaches, stiff neck, leg cramps, headaches and edema (or swelling).
This is one of our top rated services because of the amount of relief women experience from the massage. Your body and baby will thank you, which means better mother’s day gifts when they are older.
CranioSacral Therapy
Less is more! This subtle, yet AMAZINGLY powerful technique is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.
