Massage Therapists & Styles
Your body's needs change from day to day; what feels good after a strenuous workout may not have the same effect on a day you want to relax. Our massage sessions are customized to meet your individual needs. Talk with your therapist before and during your session to ensure the best massage therapy possible. Some common massage styles are listed below:
Swedish:
Oil/Lotion is applied to the skin in long, flowing strokes. Client may disrobe
partially or completely. Body is covered with sheets and blankets except area
being massaged. The overall effect is soothing and relaxing.
Deep Tissue:
Works through the superficial muscle groups and gets closer to the bone. Discuss
injuries with your therapist first to make sure DT is appropriate for you.
Sports Massage:
Blend of techniques designed to stimulate blood flow and increase joint range of
motion. Clothes are usually left on. Reduces Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness if
received 2 hours after a workout.
Reiki:
Subtle form of bodywork that is gaining in popularity all over the world. The overall
effect for the client is a sense of well-being. Great treatment for emotional
stress, can be combined with other modalites.
Chair Massage:
Gives immediate relief of muscle spasm, especially in the back or shoulders. Client
keeps clothes on and sessions are generally 20 minutes or less. Chair massages
are also a great assessment tool to find out where you may need long term therapy.
