Massage Services
A massage will leave you refreshed,
relaxed and renewed. We offer many different types of massage for the
therapeutic benefit you require.
Our professional therapists are trained
to adapt each massage to your specific needs and preferences.
The basic premise of massage
therapy is that it stimulates the muscle tissue and creates blood flow through
key areas of the body.
Proper blood flow will help the
muscles regenerate. Massage therapy is of great value because
professionals use specific strokes and techniques to relieve the pain and
stress that we all experience. Massage therapy is a science and an art.
.

The power of massage should not be underestimated when it comes to relief from pain. Massage can do wonders
for problem areas like the lower back, neck
and shoulders. If you have a regular massage therapist, be sure to advise them
about your problem areas and get regular massages.
Because all of our clients are different, our massage techniques
are customized specifically to meet your needs. We have many varieties of massage to choose from, whether the
intent is for relaxation, or to support the circulatory system, or for pain
management.
Swedish Massage
Classical European massage techniques
applied to muscle groups. Designed to reduce injury, alleviate inflammation and
maintain muscles in their best state of relaxation and flexibility to achieve
greater endurance, strength and stamina.
Hot Stone Massage:
The warm stone massage is a unique experience. We use smooth heated
stones in varying size, shapes and weight. The stones radiate their warmth deep
into your muscles and tissue. It is very pampering, soothing, and relaxing!
Muscle Specific Deep Tissue
Massage
Designed for the individual wanting deeper massage on a specific
problem area, coupled with other massage treatments, this choice adds pressure,
not time. Deep tissue is not appropriate for the full body, and is used only
for problem areas. Your therapist will discuss with you the appropriate
application in regard to area, depth and pressure.
Prenatal Massage
Specific techniques and special care are used to pamper and relieve
tired sore muscles and joints of the Mom to Be.
During pregnancy muscles begin to adapt and compensate often leaving you
sore, unbalanced and stiff. Using a combination of Swedish techniques, along with
the light touch of Lymphatic massage to relieve swelling, and proper body
positioning we gently give Mom the pampering that she needs. Please,
consult with your physician if your are unsure whether massage is permitted in
your case.

relaxing massage and is geared for your comfort level. It is highly beneficial for chronic neck

**What should I
wear?
Our massage rooms are private. Disrobe
to your level of comfort. Only the area being worked on will be uncovered and
you should feel secure at all times. Your comfort and modesty are of the utmost
importance.
Can this be considered a medical
treatment?
Although massage therapists do not diagnose or treat specific ailments by
definition, massage therapy has proven highly successful over time to relieve
symptoms or ease pain or discomfort that have manifested themselves physically
in the body - either as a result of stress, trauma or disease. If you are
currently under a physician's advisement, consult them before any treatment is
considered. Massage Therapy helps balance the systems of the body by
assisting the immune system and helping it work more efficiently which, in
turn, speeds up the healing process.
