Swedish Massage

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.

Deep Tissue Massage

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.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy 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, Pregnancy 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.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils of plants and herbs during your choice of massage to balance, harmonize and promote one's health on a physical and emotional level.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.

Manual Lymph Drainage

Manual Lymph Drainage is a very light skin technique in very precise movements and direction to facilitate the lymph vessels to draw more fluid out of the tissue into the lymph system which is then eliminated through the circulatory system. The fluid in the lymphatic system helps remove waste and toxins from the bodily tissues.

While the heart continuously pumps blood through the blood vessels, the lymphatic system relies on the movement of smooth muscles to transport fluid through the lymph vessels. MLD can facilitate this movement.

The slow rhythmical steady pace has a calming effect on the sympathetic nervous system bringing you back into the parasympathetic nervous system promoting a calming effect on your whole being. By helping the lymph system remove waste and promoting a calming sense of well being this in turn enhances one's immune system.

Lymphatic drainage massage can benefit people who are experiencing the following:   lymph edema, fibromyalgia, swelling or edema, skin disorders, fatigue, insomnia, stress/anxiety, digestive problems, arthritis, migraine episodes just to name a few.

Contraindications  may include any metastatic or systemic malignant condition, inflammation, thrombosis, edema caused by cardiac decompensation, edema following carcinoma treatment.
