A therapeutic massage session may include a blend of techniques including: Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Friction, Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Petrissage, Tapotement, Trigger Point Therapy, Hot Stone Massage, Acupressure, Reflexology, Shiatsu, Facilitated Stretching, CranioSacral Therapy, Reiki and more. Communication plays an important part in a therapeutic massage session. Instead of working mostly in silence(as in your basic relaxation massage); your practitioner will be periodically checking in with you, asking questions about levels of pain. Your therapist may ask about referred pain, range of motion issues, and other questions that pertain to the current status of your body.
This session begins face down as hot stones are placed along specific energy pathways and along the spine. As you begin to relax; a full-body massage begins at the feet; hot stones are used as tools combining the principles of Swedish, Deep Tissue and Trigger Points; your body relaxes deeply. This is a fantastic treatment for older clients, diabetics, arthritics and postpartum moms.
Pregnancy massage focuses on the special needs of the mother-to-be, as her body progresses through the dramatic changes of the childbirth experience — pre-conception, pregnancy, birth and post-partum. Your comfort and safety, and the safety of your child, are of the utmost concern at all times during the massage session. Feel your body sink into the table as you are supported by The bodyCushion™ orthopedic support system.
The transition from expectant mother to Mama can be stressful, both emotionally and physically. Baby care begins immediately after childbirth. Recovery is challenging; sleep deprivation, hormonal changes, physical stresses of carrying and caring for baby (and often older children,) add to a new mom's discomfort. This session is designed to relieve aches and pains and promote healing. Newborn -3 month old babies are welcome to accompany mom for her postpartum massage. For best results, schedule your session to take place just after feeding With baby present, a 1-hour postpartum session is scheduled in a 90-minute time slot. This allows for any baby care that may be necessary during the session.For ultimate relaxation we suggest that new moms come by themselves; giving herself a much needed break in which to completely relax and rejuvenate.
This session is designed to address both the physical and emotional discomforts associated with traditional cancer treatment. Using a blend of Reflexology, Reiki, CranioSacral Therapies to aid in pain management and promote healing.

Clients seeking traditional Swedish or Deep Tissue massage while undergoing Chemo or Radiation therapy will be asked to provide a Physician Release Statement from their Oncologist.
