Swedish Massage is a relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. The benefits are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
I use organic Sesame Oil blended with Eucalyptus Oil during all massages. Sesame oil is a light, water soluable oil that doesn’t leave your skin feeling greasy. Eucalyptus oil reduces congestion in the head and lungs and can help drain the sinuses making breathing and relaxation easier.
Chair massage is a popular way to relieve stress and release tension for groups in your own home or workplace. Receive your massage in a specialized, ergonomic chair that I set up on location. Chair massage sessions allow clients to remain fully clothed, seated, and these 15 to 20 minute sessions conveniently fit into busy schedules. Group sessions are great for employee rewards, private parties, or customer perks.
Chair massage sessions and rates vary, please contact me for details.
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork designed to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for relieving chronic tension and pain due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and lingering injuries. Open communication is necessary to insure the most beneficial deep tissue results. Keep in mind that soreness is common for 24 to 48 hours after treatment. Plenty of water should be consumed to reduce residual soreness and remove waste products from tissues.
Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Pregnancy Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function.
