Our Services
We offer a variety of massage therapy services designed to cater to individual needs and preferences. Our services include:
Swedish/Relaxation Massage
Our Swedish massage uses five styles of long, flowing strokes to melt away tension and promote deep relaxation. This style of massage has been shown to be effective in reducing pain, joint stiffness, and improving function in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. It is also beneficial for individuals with poor circulation.
Deep Tissue Massage
Our deep tissue massage is designed to relieve severe tension in the muscle and connective tissue. This style of massage focuses on the muscles located below the surface of the top muscles, making it ideal for individuals who experience consistent pain, are involved in heavy physical activity, or have sustained physical injury.
Sport Massage
Our sport massage is a modified form of Swedish massage, specifically designed for athletes and individuals who engage in regular physical activity. This style of massage focuses on increasing blood and lymphatic fluid flow, reducing and eliminating pain, and increasing range of motion in the affected area.
Lomi Lomi Massage
Our Lomi Lomi massage is a traditional Hawaiian-style massage that employs continuous, fluid strokes applied by the hands, forearms, and elbows to the client's body. This style of massage is designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being.
Shiatsu Massage
Our Shiatsu massage uses pressure applied with thumbs, fingers, and palms to the same energy meridians as acupressure, incorporating stretching techniques. Shiatsu is conducted with clothes on and is a great way to promote relaxation and balance.
Shiatsu Chair Massage
Our Shiatsu chair massage is a convenient and relaxing way to reduce stress and alleviate tension. This style of massage focuses on the back, shoulders, neck, and arms, and can be done in a seated position.
Couples Massage
Our couples massage is a unique experience designed for two individuals to receive a simultaneous massage together. We offer a range of modalities and techniques to create a customized experience for each client.
