Swedish Massage is one of the most common and effective massage therapy modalities. A wonderful combination of light to firm gliding strokes, integrated with stretching and ranging of the joints, it is a process that promotes total relaxation and muscle tension release. I will customize your Swedish massage to meet your needs and help alleviate pain and tension where you need it most.
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.
I use heated Himalayan salt stones to provide a therapeutic massage with multiple benefits. Natural salt has been used for hundreds of years to enhance healing. When the salt stones are heated and combined with therapeutic massage, a signal is sent to the body to turn off the stress response and turn on the relaxation state of being. When your muscles are able to relax I am able to help problem areas release more readily. Himalayan salt contains more than 80 trace minerals that are absorbed by your body during a hot Himalayan Stone massage, helping to replenish minerals lost during hard workouts or ongoing stress. Himalayan Salt is naturally antimicrobial and helps to detoxify and nourish your skin and body your skin will feel more refreshed and lightly exfoliated.
