Great option for those who are new to massage, need a quick tune up or just pressed for time but need some relief. In 30 mins we will focus on just one area to release the tension or discomfort that is causing trouble.
Therapeutic Massage includes a variety of techniques ranging from light to medium with some firm pressure. This is our most popular service among our clients. Very relaxing yet just enough pressure to really get into those trouble areas to feel refreshed and relief from chronic issues. Does not include any deep tissue.
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.
Prenatal Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Prenatal Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation. You will be surrounded by pillows for comfortable positioning. Recommended at least once!
Thai massage is an ancient and powerful method of healing that combines deep compressions, acupressure and passive yoga stretching to restore total balance for the body and mind. Getting a Thai Massage is like going to your massage therapist, acupuncturist, chiropractor and then a yoga class all in one. It is truly a holistic experience. It is also called Thai Yoga massage, because I use my hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like postures and stretches. My clients say Thai massage is like doing yoga without doing any of the work. AKA Lazy Man's yoga. No oil is applied and there will be times if done on the table that I will get on the table with you, so you will remain fully dressed during the session. Traditional Floor Thai is also available. Make sure to wear something loose and comfortable that won't restrict movement. A single Thai massage session will help you release stress and relieve pain, and help you function more effectively at work and home.
A luxurious foot massage that will have your feet doing the happy dance. Compressions, stretching, wooden tools, hot Stones and hot towels are all used in this one of a kind reflexology treatment. Great for those who may be a little ticklish too! With the techniques used even the most ticklish feet will be melting!
Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
Sound healing, alternatively known as Sound Therapy or Vibrational Medicine, is the practice of using sound and frequency for relaxation, healing and personal development. Sound healing can reduce your stress and anxiety, improve quality of sleep, create a deep sense of wellbeing, and promote healing that goes well beyond simple relaxation. Human bodies are 70% liquid and great conductors of sound, so when you have a sound healing session the frequencies have the potential to correct imbalances of dense stuck energy deep down at a cellular level. According to the law of physics everything in the universe vibrates with frequency. Human beings, animals, plants etc have their own frequencies too, also known as resonances. Life is energy, energy is vibration, vibration is sound. Sound healing is based on the belief that disease in the body is a result of our natural resonance being out of tune or off balance. Whether it is due to stress, illness or environmental factors, working with frequencies can bring your body back into healthy vibration. This service is available for individual booking or for an event. Only one travel fee will be charged. Group rates available for 4 and up.
60 mins can be booked as a stand alone service.
15-30 mins are available as an add on service only.
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.

60 mins can be booked as a stand alone service.
Aromatherapy is a therapy that has been used to improve mood and aid in relaxation. Some of the benefits come from the fact that aromatherapy is often integrated into other therapies, such as massage, where essential oils are mixed in with the base massage oils. Specific blends can also help soothe sore muscles and calm inflammation.
**When you chose to add on Aromatherapy each blend is customized to your liking.**
Bring relaxation to another level with your choice of Facemask and Hot Towels that will leave your skin feeling refreshed, cleansed and glowing. Face and Scalp massage included.
** The use of cups is an add-on to be used during your 60-90 minute scheduled session**
Cupping is a type of alternative therapy that originated in China. It involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. The suction may facilitate healing with blood flow. It may also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue. The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping can loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and sedate the nervous system (which makes it an excellent treatment for high blood pressure). Cupping is used to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and even cellulite.
Add on Service for a Massage service to include Hot stone Therapy in one area of your choosing.
