How does it work?
Therapeutic massage is the manipulation of soft body tissue by the hands of a trained therapist to positively affect the health and well-being of the client.
This happens by manipulating muscles and circulating blood and lymph flow, thereby affecting all of the body's systems.
Receiving massage provides deep relaxation and stress reduction.

Note:
- Swedish Massage
- This consists of long, firm, gliding strokes, and a kneading of the muscles. Stretching techniques can be incorporated. This massage reduces tension, aids in circulation, and induces relaxation.
- Neuromuscular Therapy or Trigger Point Massage
- This is a deep tissue massage focusing on points of spasm in muscles causing deep pain that may also refer to other areas of the body. Especially effective for headaches and jaw pain. Injuries that have long healed can still cause muscle spasms. This therapy may help alleviate the pain. Trigger points from everyday use of the body's musculature can be deactivated.
- Sports Massage
- Excellent for sports enthusiasts and athletes. Pre-event massage can assist in improving performance. Post-event massage aids in recovery of the muscles.
- Myofascial Release
- This massage is very slow. A soothing pressure is exerted which stretches all the fascia, or connective covering, that surrounds all cellular fibers. This technique, though gentle, gives a thorough workout to the muscles, nerves, and skin.
- Corporate Chair Massage
- Therapist will come to your worksite with a specially designed chair to give a 10 to 15 minute massage on employees' necks, arms, backs, and hands. This provides a refreshing break and productivity booster.
Sessions are conducted in a warm, peaceful setting, using aromatherapy essential oils, and soothing music for relaxation.
