Swedish Massage
is a very relaxing and therapeutic style
of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes
such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve
its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging
and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels
in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and
greater flexibility.
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.
Sports
Massage
is a type of massage designed for highly
active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh
on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and
long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a
sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling
in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically
improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective
in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging
greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body’s
natural immune function.
Reflexology
is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying
pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other
foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet
themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims
to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every
part of the human body is mapped into the feet. Reflexology treatments
have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as
allergies, headaches, and depression.
Shiatsu Massage
is a Japanese form of massage. The word
Shiatsu comes from two Japanese words - "shi" (finger)
and "atsu" (pressure). In addition to the direct stimulation
of pressure points along the energy pathways of your body, gentle
stretching techniques are applied over a wider area of the body
to integrate the point work and encourage the flow of Qi (energy)
throughout the body. Shiatsu is a meditative healing art that
honors the body, mind and spirit.
Stone Therapy
is a type of bodywork that uses deep penetrating
heat and/or alternating cold from specialized stones. The physiological
benefits of alternating hot and cold to the body have long been
scientifically and medically proven.
Stone Therapy delivers a profound expansion and contraction inside
your circulatory system, improving the function of your lymphatic
and immune systems, and enhancing your body’s self-healing
mechanisms. This style of bodywork takes you into deep states
of relaxation, releasing stress and anxiety, detoxifying the body,
and balancing your nervous system.
Acupressure
is a form of bodywork similar to acupuncture,
with the aim of stimulating specific points along the energy lines
of the body to establish overall health and vitality by balancing
your Qi (energy) flow. Unlike acupuncture however, with this modality
I use my hands to apply pressure to the specific points rather
than needling, producing similar therapeutic results.
Neuromuscular Therapy
is the utilization of static pressure on
specific myofascial points to relieve pain. This technique manipulates
the soft tissue of the body (muscles, tendons and connective tissue)
to balance the central nervous system. In a healthy individual,
nerves transmit impulses (which are responsible for every movement,
function and thought) to the body very slowly. Injury, trauma,
postural distortion or stress cause nerves to speed up their transmission,
inhibiting equilibrium and making the body vulnerable to pain
and dysfunction. It is therefore necessary to stabilize low levels
of neurological activity to maintain normal function and overall
health.
