Therapeutic or Deep Tissue Massage

Designed to treat musculoskeletal issues, this massage uses sustained pressure and trigger point therapy to reduce pain and muscle tension.

Includes essential oil of choice

CranioSacral Therapy

There is a movement in the body called the cranio sacral rhythm completely separate from the breath and heart rate. With light pressure, this rhythm is found anywhere in the body. Using a gentle, healing touch, the therapist's hands "meld" with the client to:

create deep relaxation
manage chronic pain
relieve headaches and migraines
treat the fascial system
regain a healthy cranio sacral rhythm

Fascial Release

Fascia is the connective tissue that is present throughout the body: a superficial layer just below the skin, and a deep layer that flows down throughout the muscles, and surrounds and protects all of the internal organs. This type of massage relaxes and lengthens this tissue to regain flexibility and treat chronic pain. Sustained pressure is applied to help soothe symptoms of:

fibromyalgia
headaches
back pain
ilio-tibial band friction syndrome
tendonitis

Massage Cupping

Massage cups provide decompression of tight tissues, encourages blood flow, and sedates the nervous system. Rather than applying pressure to the muscles, suction from the cups lifts skin and fascia to allow nutrients to flow upward, revitalizing the system. The cups may be moved around, or left in place depending on your individual treatment.

Works well for back and neck pain, stress relief, fatigue, stiff muscles or fascia, anxiety, and headaches.

Gua Sha

A healing technique from China, Gua Sha practitioners gently scrape the skin to increase blood circulation to the area being worked. The redness that may occur is a sign that your body is sending more blood to that area for healing of the tissue. It may also help with lymph stagnation, pain relief, muscle relaxation, decreased inflammation, and reduced stress.

Himalayan Salt Stone Massage

Known for their versatility and mineral content, Himalayan Salt offers overall wellness to the body. Using gently warmed stones, this treatment is great for aches, pains, and relaxation. A natural purifier, because of the negative ions produced when heated, its natural frequency helps reduce the toxicity of the electromagnetic frequencies from electronics that surround us daily. Himalayan Salt is also seen to calm the nervous system and improve sleep.

Sound Therapy Massage

Specially formatted singing bowls are placed on the body, while the client remains clothed, and tapped gently with a mallet. The calming sounds and gentle vibrations induce deep relaxation similar to meditation or "just falling asleep." Based on the theory of resonance: vibration/waves interact and encourage and reinforce harmony. Session can include Sound Massage with Traditional Massage in 90 or 2 hour increments or Sound Massage alone in a 60 minute session. Research concludes sound therapy:

lowers blood pressure
shifts blood sugar levels
reduces pain
improves sleep
modifies the immune system
alters pulse rate
