Massage therapy helps the body in many ways. Massage relaxes muscle tissue, which leads to decreased nerve compression, increased joint space, and range of motion. This can lead to reduced pain and improved muscular, tendon and joint function. Read about our many massage services below.
Swedish Massage 60 Min – $80 | 90 Min – $110
Swedish Massage is the best-known type of massage and is the foundation for many other types of massage. The focus is on relaxation, comfort and stress relief. It uses soft tissue manipulation to stimulate circulation, help to flush the circulatory system, release tight muscles, improve blood and lymph flow, calm your nervous system, and promote a sense of relaxation and well-being, even reducing anxiety and tension in the body, which has been known to help relieve depression.
Swedish massage is typically slow and gentle, is a lighter pressure, and is a good fit for people who just need to relax from life’s many stresses, as well as people who are unfamiliar (and even a bit unsure) about massage.
Overall pressure = light to medium
Therapeutic Massage 60 Min – $80 | 90 Min – $110
Therapeutic Massage is used to help relieve pain, reduce stress, and work on a specific problem. The focus can be on stimulating or soothing depending on the technique, depth and speed.
Therapeutic massage works to help heal injuries and relieve muscle stiffness and soreness by producing effects on the nervous, muscular and circulatory systems of the body. A therapist will be able to feel the condition of the underlying tissue and adapt the treatment accordingly. Massage techniques are chosen for the effects they produce, which may be superficial, deep, trigger points, stimulating or soothing.
Overall Pressure = combination of light, medium and firm
Deep Tissue Massage 60 Min – $80 | 90 Min – $110
Deep Tissue Massage is for releasing chronic muscle tension. The focus is on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia (the protective layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints). It uses deep pressure and cross-fiber friction to release tissue that is in spasm.
Deep tissue massage helps with both small muscle injuries as well as chronic problems. Deep tissue massage is an excellent way to deal with a sports injury, postural misalignment, treating spasms as well as deep muscle tension. During a deep tissue massage the therapist concentrates on releasing specific chronic muscle tension and uses trigger point therapy to release muscular knots, or adhesions.
During a deep tissue massage, discomfort is normal and will be felt if there are inconsistencies within the tissues. It is these inconsistencies that cause the pain and muscular “knots” that need to be relieved.
Overall Pressure = medium to firm
Couples Massage 60 Min – $160 | 90 Min – $220
A couple’s massage is when two people receive a massage at the same time in the same room together, each having their own massage therapist to work on their muscular discomforts. Receiving a massage together allows two people to completely relax and release personal or mutual stresses, as well as express personal appreciation for the other person and how grateful you are to have them in your life.
Couples massages are not just for couples though, and we often book mother-daughters, sisters, boyfriends-girlfriends, or just BFF’s having a girl-day together! It’s also excellent for anyone who has not had a professional massage before and would like the comfort of another person who has. Either way you will find comfort and a safe haven to unwind, sense the valuable presence of one another, and enjoy renewal together.
NOTE: Couples massage is Swedish or Therapeutic with some deep tissue. This is primarily a relaxation massage for the two of you to enjoy together. If you have major muscular issues please book another massage so your therapist can work with you to address your individual problems.
Cupping Massage 30 Min – $60 | 60 Min – $95 | 90 Min – $135
Cupping Massage employs clear glass or silicone cups that are applied on the skin and then moved in a pattern over the body for the stretching and opening of muscle tissue. When suction is applied to the skin using the cups, the reverse pressure causes cellulite to break up, blood circulation is stimulated, and the fat and toxins that are released are moved to the lymph drainage network. Cupping also sedates the nervous system and it is known to ease the cords connecting the skin and muscle. Cupping is used to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and even break up cellulite. In some cases spotting/bruising is possible to occur. In areas where you have the most tension, you may feel a strong pulling sensation and because of the myofascial release soreness is common. Some have said “It’s kind of like a deep-tissue massage, but in reverse.”
Manual Lymphatic Drainage 30 Min – $55 | 45 Min – $75 | 60 Min – $95
MLD is a light, skin-stretching massage that helps promote the movement of lymphatic fluid out of the swollen limb. It should not be confused with a traditional massage. MLD is specifically focused on the lymph vessels to help the flow of lymphatic fluid. Therapy is applied to your unaffected areas first, making it possible for the fluid to move out of the affected area, or “decongest” the region. MLD helps open the remaining functioning lymph collectors and move protein and fluid into them, as well as to help speed up lymph fluid flow through the lymphatics.
There are only 2 ways for lymph fluid to move and drain, by muscle movement such as exercise, and lymphatic drainage massage. Many of us are not in a regular exercise routine and that can leave us swollen with various lymphatic fluids.
