Myofascial Cupping
Myofascial cupping is a deep type of massage that adds a third dimension to bodywork. It is used to treat musculoskeletal conditions, chronic pain and muscle spasms. Instead of using compression techniques like trigger point therapy that squishes tissue together. Decompression techniques like Myofascial cupping pulls tissue apart and makes it possible to work on compression sensitive tissue. Cupping is relatively safe but can leave marks on the skin.
Facial Cupping/ Lymph Drainage for the face and neck
Facial cupping is meant to increase blood circulation and stimulate the facial cells that are responsible for collagen production. In turn, this can brighten your skin, minimize the appearance of scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and tone your chin, jawline, and neck by decreasing puffiness (Lymph Drainage). This technique uses light suction with the cups to where there should be little to no marks. This is an add on service.
Deep Tissue/ Neuromuscular
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.
Pediactric
Pediatric massage is a style of bodywork specialized for children age 6 and up. This is a time when children are growing into their bodies physically and emotionally. Pediatric massage can help prevent chronic musculoskeletal problems through early treatment of fascial restriction and myofascial trigger points for children who have growth spurts or are active in sports. Emotionally, massage can decrease anxiety, insomnia and depression.
Kinesio Tapping
Kinesio tapping is a technique that is designed to facilitate the body's natural healing process while providing support and stability to muscles without restricting the body's range of motion as well as providing extended soft tissue manipulation to prolong the benifits of massage therapy. This is an add on service.
