Types of Massage Offered:

​

SWEDISH MASSAGE

​

• Increases blood circulation easing tension in the body’s muscles and improving muscle flexibility.

• Stimulates the skin and nervous system to soothe the nerves, reducing both emotional and physical stress.

• Increases the oxygen flow in the blood releasing toxins from the muscles which in turn flushes out the lactic and uric acid and other metabolic wastes in your tissues. These benefits can dramatically shorten recovery time for muscle strain injuries.

• A staple in most stress management programs.

​

 

DEEP-TISSUE

​

• This treatment targets the deeper tissue structure of muscles and can affect connective tissue, known as fascia.

• Helps with both small muscle injuries as well as chronic problems. 

• An excellent way to deal with whiplash, sports injuries, postural misalignment, spasms and muscle tension.

• Benefits include releasing specific chronic muscle tension, muscular knots, or adhesions.

​

 

PRE AND POST NATAL MASSAGE

 

• Helpful to ease discomforts and bodily stresses during various stages of pregnancy, in particular after the second trimester.

• Pregnant women are now turning to prenatal massages (during pregnancy) and postnatal (after childbirth) for comfort from backaches, headaches, leg cramps, stiff neck and edema (swelling), relaxation, stress reduction and overall wellness.
