Massage Modalities

Myofascial

A slow approach targeting the fascia - the membrane surrounding muscles - rather than the muscle itself. Since fascia completely encases every muscle in the body, imbalances in the fascia can have serious effects on your range of motion and comfort level. While other forms of massage can overlook the fascia, myofascial massage focuses specifically on releasing tension in this important membrane. This may feel initially uncomfortable but reduces pain afterwards and increases range of motion.

Deep Tissue

Slow strokes and deep finger pressure to relieve tension from the deepest layers of your muscles and connective tissues, typically a full body massage.

Hot Stone Massage

Warm basalt rocks are placed over specific areas. Opens up blood vessels and improves circulation. Improved circulation allows more oxygen to be delivered to the muscles, which helps alleviate aches and pains.

Lymphatic Drainage

This gentle modality effects the skin only, and can reduce swelling and improve circulation throughout the lymphatic system, which helps remove waste and toxins from the bodily tissues.

Swedish

Rubbing the muscles in long, gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart to increase the level of oxygen in the blood and improve circulation and flexibility.

Sports Therapy

Focuses on treating soft tissue aches, pain and injuries that are associated with recreational activities. Typically focusing on specific areas.

Tui Na

The main difference between a Tui Na massage and a regular massage is that Tui Na works on a deeper level; the massage is not only meant to make you feel relaxed and reduce pain, but is also performed to stimulate the body's own healing process, and work to unblock your qi, which is a term used to describe your vital life force. The technique is effective in reducing stress, encouraging relaxation, and deepening sleep. It's often used for conditions and injuries related to the musculoskeletal and nervous system.
