Services
Ashiatsu
Ashiatsu uses controlled foot pressure with overhead bars for balance. This deep tissue technique improves circulation and relieves chronic muscle tension. It benefits athletes and those with back pain through spinal decompression and muscle elongation.
Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage employs gentle rhythmic movements to stimulate fluid removal from tissues. This technique reduces swelling and supports immune function. It aids post-surgical recovery and manages chronic conditions like fibromyalgia through improved circulation.
Sports Massage
Sports massage combines multiple techniques for active individuals. It enhances flexibility and prevents injuries through targeted muscle work. Sessions address specific athletic needs including pre/post-event preparation and recovery protocols.
Deep Tissue
Deep tissue focuses on realigning deeper muscle layers and connective tissue. This technique addresses chronic pain and posture issues through sustained pressure. It promotes healing for injuries like sciatica and repetitive strain through focused manipulation.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy uses negative pressure to lift soft tissues. This ancient technique improves blood flow and releases muscle tension. It effectively treats chronic pain and enhances range of motion through controlled suction application.
