MASSAGE TREATMENTS

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that focuses on the deeper layer of muscle tissue.

It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fiber’s of the muscles, tendons and fascia.

It feels good and it is beneficial to your health. When muscles are stressed, they block oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the muscle tissue.

A deep-tissue massage helps loosen muscle tissue, releases toxins from the muscles and gets blood and oxygen circulating properly throughout the body.

Because many toxins are released, it is important to drink plenty of water after your sessions to help eliminate these toxins from the body.

Deep tissue massage usually focuses on a specific problem, such as:

– Chronic pain

– Limited mobility

– Recovery from injuries(e.g whiplash, falls, sport injury)

– Repetitive strain injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome

– Postural problems

– Osteoarthritis pain

– Muscle tension or spasm

Relaxation Massage

A relaxation massage is exactly what the name implies – a massage strictly for the purpose of rest and relaxation. This massage technique is not designed for therapeutic effects or for dealing with chronic pain or discomfort.

Relaxation massage is a smooth, gentle style of massage designed to improve circulation, range of movement, relief minor muscle pain and promote overall relaxation. Most people don’t take enough time off for themselves anymore. It’s about time you’ve pampered yourself with a relaxation massage!

Many live their stressful lives day to day without taking any time off just for them.

Everyone deserves a well needed moment of relaxation and this massage is just the right technique for that. It will relax your mind and body, giving you a break from the stress of your life. The length of the  massage will depend on how long you would like it to last.

Sports Massage

Massage has become an integral part of the new athletic regimen. More and more people are realizing that a complete workout routine includes not only the exercise itself, but also caring for the wear-and-tear and minor injuries that naturally occur with strenuous movement.

The physiological and psychological benefits of massage makes it an ideal complement to a total conditioning program.

Trigger Point Treatment

A trigger point can often be a very painful experience accompanied by muscle spasms, intense pain and limited mobility in joints and muscles.

This therapy uses different types of techniques along with varying amounts of pressure to give the person relief from pain that accumulates in specific regions on the body.

People who have decreased motion in certain muscles, persistent pain and are unable to maintain good posture in the neck, shoulders and pelvic region may need trigger point therapy.

This helps the body feel rejuvenated. The muscles will feel more relaxed and the range of motion of the muscle will return to normal.
