Integrative

There are many massage styles and techniques, most of which share the related goals of achieving and maintaining good physical condition while providing a sense of well-being. Integration massage means we will draw upon techniques from a variety of modalities to best suit your unique situation. The best of both worlds, therapeutic and relaxing - this is your maintenance massage.

Swedish Relaxation Massage

Swedish massage increases circulation and flushes toxins from the body by using long, smooth, relatively superficial strokes that move blood and lymph towards the heart. This gentle massage is very relaxing and is good for relieving general muscle tension and stress. Swedish massage is also great for stimulating your immune system.

Therapeutic Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is an approach that reaches the deeper layers of the muscles and related tissues by using a variety of techniques such as stretching, deep finger or forearm pressure and slow, steady, firm strokes. This technique is excellent for chronic pain, spasms, injury management, increasing range of motion, flexibility and improving posture. Deep tissue can also be deeply relaxing.

Sports Massage

Sports massage uses a wide variety of modalities to increase an athlete's physical performance, quicken recovery time and provide relief to overworked muscles. A sports massage session often includes a lot of stretching and passive movement.

Cupping Massage

Cupping massage is a modified version of cupping therapy commonly used in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). Glass cups are used to create a suction, or negative pressure, and are then used to glide over muscles and adhesions. The resulting sensation is similar to deep tissue massage or myofascial release. This highly effective massage modality addresses deeper layers of connective and muscle tissues. A great treatment for fibromyalgia, chronic pain, scar tissue, cellulite and draining excess fluids and toxins. Cupping is typically used in conjunction with Deep Tissue and Swedish Massage.
