Massage Therapy
Investing in massage is an investment in your health and well being.
Swedish Massage
One of the most commonly taught and well-known massage techniques, Swedish massage, is a vigorous system of treatment designed to energize the body by stimulating circulation. The many benefits of Swedish massage may include generalized relaxation, dissolution of scar tissue adhesions, and improved circulation, which may speed healing and reduce swelling from injury.
Deep Tissue Massage
Techniques that utilize deep-tissue massage are administered to affect the sub-layer of musculature and fascia. It helps with chronic muscular pain, injury rehabilitation, and reduces inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendinitis.
Craniosacral Therapy
A gentle, noninvasive method of evaluating and enhancing the function of a physiological body arrangement called the craniosacral system. This manual therapy enhances the body's natural healing processes and has proven effective in treating a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.
Elder Massage
Massage techniques modified to accommodate elder body type and issues. There are some conditions (known as contraindications) where massage is not recommended. Consulting your physician prior to scheduling an appointment is recommended.
Hospice Massage
Using Everflowing touch, a gentle, nurturing touch delivered through rhythmic stroking and holding of the body with the intent of providing comfort and validation for the client.
Oncology Massage
Oncology massage is the modification of existing massage therapy techniques in order to safely work with complications of cancer and cancer treatment and is recommended for anyone who has ever received cancer treatment, from those in active treatment to those in recovery or survivorship. Essential aspects of an oncology massage therapist's skill set are an informed understanding of the disease itself and the many ways it can affect the human body; the side effects of cancer treatments, such as medications, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation; and the ability to modify massage techniques in order to adapt for these side effects, as well as for the disease.
Chair Massage
Known as seated massage, chair massage, or on-site massage, this technique involves the use of a specially designed massage chair in which the client sits comfortably. Seated massage sessions typically range from 15 to 30 minutes with the client fully clothed.
