 Therapeutic Massage  $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
Modality that combines many massage techniques to help relieve pain, reduce stress, and work on specific problem areas.
 

 

 Swedish Massage  $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
Swedish massage is the most commonly offered and best-known type of massage. It uses firm but gentle pressure to improve circulation, ease muscle aches and tension, an improve flexibility. It also create a wonderful sense of relaxation.

The therapist generally uses massage oil or lotion to reduce friction and lubricate the skin. Swedish massage is done with the person covered by a sheet. One part of the body uncovered, massaged, and then covered up before moving onto another part of the body. Five different movements are used:
 

• Long, Gliding Strokes
 
• Friction • Hacking or Tapping • Vibration • Kneading of Individual Muscles

 Deep-Tissue Massage

 $80 for 60 Minutes,  SCHEDULE NOW!

Deep-tissue massage aims at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia (connective tissue). This therapy uses the same movements and techniques as Swedish massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is also a more focused type of massage, as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or knots (adhesions).

Deep-tissue massage should not hurt, but it's likely to cause a bit more discomfort than a classic Swedish massage. Always speak up if the pressure is too much for you.

 
Laser Therapy  $60 for 30 Minutes or $100 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!

Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment for improving many types of pain and injuries. The Class IV Therapeutic Laser, stimulates the body's natural healing process, providing pain relief and repairing injured tissues.  Photons of infrared light penetrate through the skin and are absorbed by special components in your body's cells called chromophores.  The absorption of the photons by your cells causes increased production of cellular energy.  This means there is more available energy for accelerated healing.

During Laser Therapy treatment ,the client experiences a gentle warming effect and at times, a profound feeling of relaxation.  

 
 Pregnancy Massage  $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
Prenatal massage shares many of the goals of regular massage ­– to relax tense muscles, ease sore spots, improve circulation and mobility, and just make you feel good. But it's also tailored specifically to the needs of pregnant women and their changing bodies, and therapists who are trained in prenatal massage adjust their techniques accordingly.
 Sports Massage  $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
More active work targeting specific muscles; may include passive stretch and tense - relax methods.
 
 Reflexology   $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
This massage treatment is based on the theory that reflex points in the feet and hands are linked to every part of the body. It is used to relieve tension and treat a range of illnesses.
 
 Raindrop Therapy Technique  $95 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
Light massage using a sequence of highly anti-microbial essential oils in order to reduce inflammation. The nine oils are dispensed ike drops of rain from about six inches above the back, massaged along the spine and over the rest of the back. A hot compress is then applied to facilitate absorption of the oils and relax the muscles.
 
 Myofascial Release  $80 for 60 Minutes SCHEDULE NOW!
Myofascial release is a very effective hands on technique that provides sustained pressure into myofasical restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. Fasica is very densely woven, covering and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery, and vein, as well as all of our internal organs.

 

Each part of the entire body is connected to every other part by the fascia. If there is trauma to the fasica on one part of the body it can easily affect several different areas of the body distally located.

Myofasical Release is performed by applying firm, direct pressure on the surface of the skin then slowly stretching the fascia below allowing it "unwind itself." The gentle traction applied to the restricted fascia will result in heat and increased blood flow in the area to promote healing.

Heated Stones - Myofascial Release

 

 CranioSacral Therapy  $80 for 60 Minutes  SCHEDULE NOW!

CranioSacral therapy is a holistic healing practice that uses very light touching to balance the craniosacral system in the body, which includes the bones, nerves, fluids, and connective tissue of the cranium and spinal area.
