Clinical Therapeutic Massage -   Our bodies are amazing and complex! Having a variety of techniques and modalities used within your massage therapy session can greatly improve the benefit of every session.

Each personalized appointment combines multiple techniques.
The therapist chooses the most appropriate techniques based upon the information gathered on the initial intake (at the first session).

Possible techniques include Orthopedic Massage, Deep Tissue, Cupping, Trigger Point, Neuromuscular, Reflexology, Swedish, Circulatory, Lymphatic Drainage.

Techniques are chosen by the therapist based upon what is discussed at your first session. As progress is made your sessions change, and every massage always remains uniquely suited to you.

Neuromuscular Technique -   This technique is specifically designed to help improve posture by helping to correct structural dysfunction, it will relieve muscle tension, remove mental and emotional stress, and improve organ and glandular function.

The technique can be performed as more of a deep massage increasing the effect on muscle tissue or can be done lighter to balance and improve your Nervous system.

Reflexology -   Reflex points for various organs, glands and nerves for the entire body are found on the feet and hands. Massage of these reflex points using Swedish strokes, soft tissue manipulations, and pressure-pointing can help return body systems and functions to healthful balance.

This is VERY relaxing!

Lymphatic Drainage Massage - Proper lymph drainage assists in maintaining the integrity of the immune system and helps to strengthen the body against immune system insufficiencies, allergy symptoms, colds, arthritis, and many other inflammatory conditions that affect the body’s natural defense system.
