Therapeutic Massage Techniques

SHIATSU THERAPY
This relaxing Japanese acupressure treatment uses a combination of firm contact, stretching, and long gliding strokes combined with the benefits of the aroma therapy of your choice. Since no massage oils are used shiatsu can be performed through loose attire, on a massage table or a comfortable floor cushion. Translated “finger pressure,” Shiatsu is the Oriental medicine responsible for creating good health for centuries. This pressure point massage encourages the body to activate its own healing ability.

SWEDISH MASSAGE
Achieve a peaceful, relaxed state with classic Swedish style strokes of light to moderate pressure that increases circulation and relieves muscular tension. This technique of smooth fluid strokes is used for the benefit of relaxation. With the increase of blood circulation, this massage will leave you both calm and relieved. 

INTENSIVE DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
This technique is not just about relaxation; it is for the person who requires a more intensive massage. Deep tissue and trigger point therapy will help with your chronic muscle tension and relieve even the deepest layers of muscle tissue and fascia. This massage offers relief from tight, “knotted,” sore muscles.

TRIGGER POINT THERAPY

HOT STONE MASSAGE

The heat within the stones helps penetrate deeper into your muscle tissue, inducing deep relaxation and releasing unwelcome toxins for an absolutely exquisite and unforgettable head to toe experience.
