Swedish Massage is all about slowing down and entering into a great state of relaxation.  With slow, smooth, and steady relaxation strokes we facilitate an environment of rest.  Benefits of a Swedish massage are lowered blood pressure, increased quality of sleep, improvement of lymphatic flow, and reduction of pain. This modality uses light pressure.

Deep Tissue is heavier massage using firm pressure with deeper inner work.  Often times, clients describe this type of massage as a "hurts so good" massage.  As we work out deep tension, clients do experience a more intense therapeutic pain resulting in a more immediate relief of not only surface tension but the deep roots issues in the tissues.  (not recommended for someone who hasn't received massage on a regular basis as is can be painful.

During this type of session, clients will experience passive and active stretching.  We utilize a few modalities during this session to include Swedish, myofascial, and tense and relax.  These different modalities when combined offer a session that will increase your range of motion, reduce pain, relieve tension, and drive back some boundaries you've been facing by increasing your freedom of movement.

Did you know that your spinal cord has its very own pulse apart from the circulatory respiratory rhythm?  Craniosacral Therapy (CST) requires a skilled therapist who can tune into your rhythm and constitute change.  A session of CST effects all of they systems in your body as it bathes and nourishes your nerves in cerebral spinal fluid.  The cranial sutures in the skull allow the flow of Cerebral spinal fluid to collect and build in the cranium before being sent down to the sacrum, where it also collects and builds before returning to the cranium.  This modality is utilizes traction, some moderate pressure, but 90% is a very light touch.  CST is effective in treating headaches, migraines, and trauma stored in the body.  

What is reflexology, really?  Reflexology has been around since ancient Egypt and is considered a science!  Through this modality the therapist is able to effect different regions of the body by manually stimulating the reflex points on the hands and feet.  The pressure used is all within the clients tolerance, and some have described it as a little painful in some spots but very therapeutic overall.  It is deeply relaxing as we influence area not often touched.   Most of the time reflexology is a 30 minute session that is a wonderful add-on to your 60 minute session.  Whether purchased as an individual service or added onto your 60 minute massage, you'll be giving your hands and feet the little extra attention they deeply desire!  Not only that, but there are many benefits to your entire system through these reflex points.
