Swedish Massage:
$70.00 per hour, $105.00 1 ½ Hours
Swedish Massage is a relaxing form of massage that increases circulation, eases tension and improve flexibility. Swedish massage incorporates five individual techniques, which are used together to create the maximum effect and benefit: long, smooth strokes; careful kneading of individual muscles; friction; hacking (tapping); and consistent vibration.
A common technique called “draping” is used in Swedish massage, which means that most of the body is covered by a sheet during the massage, and the sheet is moved as the new section of the body is being massaged. Swedish massage is meant to be a quiet, relaxing experience, while playing soft music in the background.
Deep Tissue Massage:
$70.00 per hour & $105.00 1 ½ hours
Deep Tissue massage is designed to relieve severe tension in the muscles of the neck and back and in the connective tissue, called fascia. It is called “deep tissue” massage because it is aimed at the muscles located below the surface of the top muscles, and will invariably work out hard knots or adhesions that exist in those muscles.
Many of the same techniques used in Swedish massage are also implemented in Deep Tissue massage, but the pressure is usually more intense and focused. Rather than massaging the entire neck and back, Deep Tissue massage will usually be focused on problem areas and stiff muscles.
Deep Tissue massage is great if you sit or stand in one position all day or engage in physical activity on a regular basis. Muscles tend to compensate for one another, which can create an imbalance in the muscular structure of the body. Deep Tissue massage serves to ease the tension in over-compensating muscles and to alleviate stress on particular muscle groups.
Deep Tissue massage should not hurt, though it might be uncomfortable in comparison to Swedish massage.
Hot Stone Massage:
$85.00 per hour, $120.00 1 ½ hours
Hot stone massage is a specialty massage that uses smooth, heated stones. The stones are often basalt – a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well. It is a deeply soothing, relaxing form of massage. The heat helps tight muscles release.
Traditional strokes of Swedish massage are applied while holding a heated stone. The heated stones are placed in specific points along your spine, or in the palms of your hand, or even between your toes to improve the flow of energy in your body.
Aromatherapy:
$70.00 per hour, $105.00 1 ½ hours
Aromatherapy is the practice of using volatile plant oils, including essential oils, for psychological and physical well-being. Essential oils, the pure essence of a plant, have been found to provide both psychological and physical benefits. Essential oils that are inhaled into the lungs offer both psychological and physical benefits.
Not only does the aroma of the natural essential oil stimulate the brain to trigger a reaction, but when inhaled into the lungs, the natural constituents (naturally occurring chemicals) can supply therapeutic benefit.
