Combined ancient stretching with yoga and sports massage!

These stretching techniques are combined with chiropractic stretches to bring relief to sore muscles in the body. Wear loose, flexible clothing for easier movement of the body.

Sports Massage involves excitation of the muscles to allow one to maintain performance in any activity. Stretching of the muscles and joints can help strengthen and prepare for long episodes of activity. This technique will be performed with clothing while in motion of physical activity. 

Myofascial Massage

Myofascial Massage is a technique used to treat injuries and discomfort, reducing pain and increasing range of motion. Myofascial Massage differs from other types of massage in that it targets the fascia - the membrane surrounding muscles rather than the muscle itself. Since fascia completely encases every muscle in the body, imbalances in the fascia can have serious effects on your range of motion and comfort level. While other forms of massage can overlook the fascia, Myofascial Massage focuses specifically on releasing tension in this important membrane. This technique can be provided to you at no additional charge, and is included in any massage.

The Golfers Massage

110 minutes: $230

The golf swing is one of the most complex and multifaceted movements in all of sports. There are various types of golf swings and varying theories on how to approach it, the intricacies of which can be overwhelming for golfers. Most can spend years modifying and fine-tuning their swing. Therefore, this practice of massage targets the biomechanics of the golf swing, while conducting range of motion tests before and after the massage to help determine quality and quantity of movement, and how these may have changed over the course of the session. The massage techniques of Sports and Thai stretching can help golfers to enhance performance in activity, facilitate faster, more efficient recovery from activity, and reduce the risk of injury and accelerate recovery from an injury.

Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression. This treatment is provided with any massage at no additional charge.

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger Point Therapy is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing "trigger points" in your body. Trigger points are tender areas of tension similar to acupressure points, except they occur in the belly of the muscle rather than along the energy pathways of the body. These "knots" are built up throughout a person's life due to physical, mental, and/or emotional stress. During a session, focused pressure is applied through a variety of techniques order to release your trigger points. This process can be quite painful at times, yet the effects are lasting and profoundly transformative. This technique is included with any massage.

Cupping is a type of alternative therapy originated from Asia. Qi is a Chinese word meaning life force. Cups are placed on the body and moved to facilitate the flow of qi in the body. This technique is meant to increase blood circulation and reduce pain. It can also be considered as a form of deep tissue massage. This treatment can be combined with any massage and requires clothing removal for access to the skin. 

Stretching

Stretching the body gives the body more flexibility which in turn provides sufficient blood circulation. As you continue to stretch the joints, it brings more comfort in being flexible, therefore, injuries are less likely to occur. Keeping the body flexible, by stretching every day, you will be achieving a goal towards absolute wellness.  Ask me for some stretching with a deep muscle massage. $30 extra charge.

Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage.
