Services

  • Swedish Massage: The core concentration is relaxation by calming the sympathetic nervous system. Light to medium pressure is used with long gliding strokes to promote the flow of blood, lymph and chi. 
  • Deep Tissue Massage: Slow, deep and intentional strokes with elbows, palms, thumbs and knuckles are used to target muscles deep to the body. "Deep tissue" does not necessarily mean “deep pressure” but rather an intention to release restrictions in fascia and muscle tissue where more superficial techniques cannot access. When done slowly, the techniques may induce a parasympathetic nervous system response resulting in relaxation.
  • Trigger Point Therapy: is a specialized form of massage therapy that focuses on identifying and releasing trigger points in muscles. Trigger points are localized areas of muscle tension and tightness that can cause pain and discomfort in specific areas of the body. They are often associated with muscle knots and can refer pain to other parts of the body. Trigger point therapy can be highly effective for addressing specific areas of pain and tension. 
  • Myofascial Release: is a specialized manual therapy technique used to address fascial restrictions and tension in the body. Myofascial release aims to release these restrictions and promote improved flexibility and pain relief.
  • Sport Massage: is a specialized form of massage therapy designed to address the unique needs of athletes and individuals engaged in rigorous physical activity. It focuses on enhancing athletic performance, preventing and treating sports-related injuries, and promoting overall recovery and well-being.  

 

  • Table Thai Thai Massage:  Table Thai is a Whole- body Thai massage treatment done on the table. It is a 60–90-minute routine in four positions, supine, prone, side-lying and sitting up with the receiver fully clothed. Thai bodywork is a lot more than just physical stretching. It is Therapeutic in nature, affecting multiple layers of the physical, mental and the spiritual energetic bodies. It employs a theory of energy channels similar to the Ayurvedic and yogic concept of Nadis and an extensive network of energy lines flowing through our body.  The Thai theory for healing is to open up these lines of energy through proper stretches & compressions, applying smooth- flowing sequences of movement, to work the whole body, all the joints and main muscle groups as well as energy meridians.
  • Traditional Thai Foot Reflexology:  Thai foot reflexology is said to be a fusion of reflexology, Acupuncture, Japanese Shiatsu, and Indian Ayurveda. According to acupuncture theory, the human foot has 7,200 sensory nerve endings which  connected to the body’s Sen (Prana)  lines and the internal organs. During a Thai Reflexology session pressure points alongside the Sen lines are gently stimulated to restore the free Flow of energy. In addition to leaving you feeling relaxed, the stimulation of reflex points on the feet heals the body and mind and enhances overall well-being.

    • Advanced Muscular Reconditioning & PNF - Advanced Muscular Reconditioning improves muscle function, erases trigger points and reduces pain. PNF involves the use of isometric exercises to strengthen weak muscles in complex joints. Very effective for shoulder dysfunction. 
    • Passive Stretching & Positional Relief - Passive stretching is effective and delightful to receive. Positional release breaks positive feedback loops where pain causes muscle spasm, which in turn causes more pain. When massage doesn't break the loop, we passively strike a pose and wait. Expect a 70-80% reduction in pain, reduced spasm and increased strength in seconds.
    • Shiatsu - Shiatsu is translated as finger pressure. Its Japanese traditional massage, can be very deep, and is highly effective. Shiatsu is done fully clothed and covered by a sheet and towel. It's perfect for those who are modest, have any embarrassing skin conditions, aversion to lotions and oils, and those with sensitive skin in general. Keep your clothes on and receive a great massage. Ted's Shiatsu has been described as "even better than in Japan" by several Japanese tourists.
    • Swedish Massage:  During a Swedish massage you can expect a more relaxing experience using more gentle techniques to release muscle tension stored in the body. Can be done with varying pressure and includes long strokes and kneading.
    • Deep Tissue Massage:  Deep tissue massage uses more pressure to access tension deeper in the muscles and connective tissue. Each of your muscles consist of bundles of muscle fibers which are encased in a web of collagen called fascia. Fascia runs through and around every muscle in your body and acts as the glue that holds your muscle tissues together. A trigger point is a small tight area in the band of muscle fibers and fascia which restricts blood flow to the area and causes pain. Techniques like Myofascial Release and Deep Tissue Massage work to release trigger points by pushing fresh blood in and flushing waste material out. This helps relieve pain by bringing in more oxygen to the area and encouraging the muscles to release.

Techniques like Myofascial Release and Deep Tissue Massage work to release trigger points by pushing fresh blood in and flushing waste material out. This helps relieve pain by bringing in more oxygen to the area and encouraging the muscles to release. The objective of trigger point therapy is releasing or softening a muscle knot to reduce (or eliminate) the knot pain and associated pain. This release happens by applying various levels of pressure to muscle knots, and then stretching the affected areas through a complete range of motion. 
    • Sports Massage: Sports massage addresses imbalances in the body that may be preventing ROM and athletic performance. Pre-event sports massage can be used to address the immediate needs of the athlete in a quick way with no intention on actually “correcting” a core issue in the muscle tissue, but rather simply allowing the athlete to move in the way that is necessary to perform. Post-event massage can be used to dive into the core ROM restrictions for greater athletic performance.
    • Raindrop therapy - is a special technique using Young Living Essential Oils to harmonize, rejuvenate, detox, cleanse and relax the body. Raindrop Therapy includes aromatherapy while applying proprietary blends (including valor, basil, oregano, thyme, marjoram, cypress, peppermint & wintergreen) to the spine, neck and feet using a base carrier oil. The treatment is sealed with wet heat.***Not allowed if breastfeeding or pregnant. Let your therapist know if you are on any blood thinners and/or have any health conditions that would interfere with this treatment. ***
    • Intuitive Energy Healing - My specialized technique (not Reiki) of channeling energy shifts that need to be released or energized. Light colored relaxed fitting clothes are recommended. Some light touch massage is used if it assists in releasing energy from your physical and energy body.

    • Craniosacral Massage:  Craniosacral is a gentle hands on technique that uses a light touch to examine membranes and movement of the fluids in and around the central nervous system. Relieving tension in the CNS promotes a feeling of well-being by eliminating pain and boosting health and immunity.
    • Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a period of time to create suction. It’s used to help with pain, inflammation and blood flow

      • Trigger Point Therapy: The process of identifying and addressing points of pain and restriction in the musculoskeletal system. These points commonly lead to chronic pain that can be easily misdiagnosed. When untreated, they will refer pain either locally to the trigger point or to different parts of the body. Techniques employed will help to either release fully or decrease pain associated with said point.
      • Myofascial Release: The process of identifying restriction within the fascial system, which is a sheath of connective tissue that surrounds everything in the body. Holds against resistance in the fascial system are used and patience is necessary until restrictions begin to release. This process can induce powerful emotional releases such as uncontrollable laughing, crying or even a sense of reliving past trauma experiences. 
      • Medical Massage: Through the study of different chronic and acute conditions, massage techniques have been developed to help aid in the treatment process. Common conditions that massage can help with are sciatica, piriformis syndrome, plantar fasciitis, TMJ, degenerative disk disease, fibromyalgia and more. Massage is not the cure all, but can be an incredible resource with aiding in pain management and treatment.

      • IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization): A complementary therapy geared towards alleviating fascial restrictions in the body. Dull edged metal tools are used in a variety of ways to increase ROM and decrease pain.
      • Cupping: A complementary therapy that has been used for thousands of years in cultures all around the world. Cupping is more commonly used to pull stagnant blood, lymph and chi from different parts of the body. It can also be used post treatment along with movement to help release fascial restrictions, increase ROM, decrease pain and increase athletic performance.

       

       

      • Swedish: When booking a Swedish massage, expect a relaxing "spa-type" experience. This massage consists of long gliding strokes at a light to medium pressure, with kneading techniques and various stretches incorporated into each session to address specific needs. This modality is great for calming the body while improving the circulation of blood, lymph and chi. Essential oils and hot towels can also be included for a holistic experience your body will thank you for!
      • Deep Tissue: When booking a deep tissue massage, expect a "fix-it" type of massage experience. Strokes in a deep tissue massage are slower and more intentional, with the goal of targeting specific muscles or tendons that are causing the client pain or mobility issues. Incorporating elbows, fists, and thumbs, pressure is typically firmer than a Swedish massage. While it is still relaxing to feel muscles release and knots be dissolved, you will find a bigger benefit in chronic pain and mobility issues being reduced or erased after just one session. With consistent sessions, results will continue to grow and you will feel even better in your body with each session!
      • Cupping: A practice that has been around since ancient times, cupping is another great modality for treating pain. Silicone cups are placed on the skin above problematic areas, creating a tight seal that produces a nice compression on the muscle tissue. This modality goes great with a deep tissue massage but can also be booked as a 10-minute standalone treatment. Expect meaningful reductions in pain, adhesions and inflammation while also benefiting from a fresh blood supply to the cupped areas!
