Experience the latest therapeutic treatment; Bamboo-Fusion. Heated bamboo is used in your personally designed massage treatment to help relax your sore muscles, relieve pain and refresh your mind. Bamboo symbolizes suppleness, resilience, straightforwardness and simplicity. This exotic new massage is performed with a naturally grown, renewable resource that has long been revered in many Asian countries. Bamboo-Fusion allows for a deep, even pressure and the added heat is wonderful for smoothing out tightness in some of the hard to get to areas or even in the larger muscle groups. If you would like a lighter pressure, the bamboo can still be used so you receive the benefit of added heat.
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.
Neuromuscular therapy is a system of massage techniques that were developed in the 1930's by Dr. Stanley Lief in England. It uses a holistic approach towards healing, emphasizing and stimulating the body's natural ability to heal itself. Neuromuscular therapy also enhances the function of joints and muscles, and accelerates the overall healing process by facilitating the release of endorphins.
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.
Trigger Point Therapy is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing "trigger points" in your body. Trigger points are tender areas of tension similar to acupressure points, except they occur in the belly of the muscle rather than along the energy pathways of the body. These "knots" are built up throughout a person's life due to physical, mental, and/or emotional stress. During a session, focused pressure is applied through a variety of techniques order to release your trigger points. This process can be quite painful at times, yet the effects are lasting and profoundly transformative.
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is performed with a very light touch. It's aim is to gently and rhythmically move the lymph through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functions of the immune system. As both a preventative and remedial technique, LD can be used for a wide range of purposes including faster recovery from injury or bruising, reduction of swelling and discomfort from pregnancy, and strengthened resistance to illness.
Circulatory massage help improve circulation throughout the body. Rather than flowing sweeping strokes it involves some squeezing and uses a fair amount of downward pressure. It is important to speak up if at any point the pressure is too much. While recieving the massage it helps to continue with deep breathing and envisioning the path through your body that blood flows.
Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike a basic foot massage that intends to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is far more in-depth and aims to harmonize your entire body. The theory of reflexology is that every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.
