Deep Tissue/Therapeutic Massage * Relaxation Massage * Prenatal Massage

Deep Tissue/Therapeutic Massage is highly effective for releasing chronic muscular tensions due to misalignment, repetitive motion, and prior injuries.  Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, an open line of communication is essential to ensure your comfort during the session.  These sessions incorporate deep tissue work (where there therapist may use her thumbs, forearms, and elbows), Positional Release techniques (strain/counter strain techniques & muscle energy techniques) along with various stretches and trigger point work.  Cupping/Gua Sha may be added into your massage session free of charge.

Muscle soreness (as well as increased range of motion and pain relief!) is fairly common after receiving a deep tissue massage-- making sure that you are adequately hydrated will help combat soreness and many professionals recommend Epsom Salt soaks (or a magnesium oil spray) as part of a regular self care routine.

30 minute appointments may be available for established clients with a wellness routine- alternating between longer monthly treatments and ancillary 30 minute focused area treatments.

 

Restorative Massage uses lighter to moderate pressure.  Incorporating longer, slower strokes and energy holds to soothe the nervous system and relieve stress.

 

Prenatal massage is tailored to meet the needs of pregnant clients and their ever changing bodies during the duration of their pregnancy.  Unlike many massage therapists, I am open to providing massage to pregnant clients during all stages of their pregnancy and I took specific training to ensure the safety of both mom and baby while receiving massage. 

Please note that the bodyCushion is utilized for prenatal massage.  (I have received prenatal massage personally on this style cushion for all three of my pregnancies and have used it on many pregnant clients, including moms carrying multiples)  For more information, please feel free to contact me.  Below is a link to the company's YouTube video showing the bodyCushion system.
