The primary purpose of this treatment is relaxation including long, gliding strokes across the body to help with general aches and pains. Light to medium pressure throughout to increase circulation which may have value in the treatment of some inflammatory conditions, such as arthritis.
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Take your massage session to an even deeper state of relaxation with CBD! This customized treatment uses infused CBD massage oil to help your body's endocannabinoid system block pain, reduce inflammation, and promote overall homeostasis and well being. Cannot be combined with prenatal massage.
Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating. If you have multiple areas of tension that you are hoping for focused work on, I would suggest the therapeutic or deep tissue massage to start, and return to the hot stone when the pain is more manageable.
A massage for the expecting mother! Women can begin prenatal massage therapy during their second and third trimester. With the support of a prenatal pillow, you will be able to rest comfortably on your stomach (side lying with the support of pillows is also available if preferred). Massage is most beneficial to help the mother-to-be reduce stress, aches and pains, uncomfortable swelling, and increase restful sleep.
While massage is typically performed by applying pressure, cupping therapy uses negative pressure to pull, lift, open and expand the body’s soft tissues. The negative pressure is created through the use of silicone, plastic, and glass cups on the body surface. The cups may be left in certain areas for a few minutes to help pull toxins; or cups can glide over skin to increase circulation. This service helps break apart tight muscle fibers and release restricted fascia. Cannot be combined with prenatal or hot stone massage.
