Services available are the following: * Swedish Massage -- is the foundation for all traditional massage work. Swedish massage is all about relaxation! Gentle pressure and smooth, comforting strokes combined with gentle music to sooth the senses, melt tension away, and rejuvenate the mind, body, and spirit. * Deep Tissue Massage -- is tailored to each individual's needs. Deep tissue massage is designed to stimulate the body's own healing processes, working out tension from the deepest muscles of the body to correct dysfunctions in joint mobility and movement, increase flexibility, decrease pain and inflammation, and restore health to muscles that need more focused attention than is provided with a Swedish. * Prenatal Massage -- is designed to address the aches and pains unique to the process of incubating a precious cargo. Prenatal massage is a medium pressure massage that focuses on the hips, low back, and legs of a pregnant woman. Done in a side-laying position, prenatal massage reduces the inflammation and pain often associated with the widening of the hips and the change in gait and muscle movement associated with it as well as muscle soreness in the mid- and low-back associated with the growing weight if the baby pulling down on the stomach. Please note that massage in the first trimester as well as massage during times of doctor-ordered bed rest or other complications with the pregnancy is strictly prohibited without a note from the obstetrician who is overseeing your pregnancy. * Sports Massage -- is using massage techniques and a wide array of stretching moves. Sports massage is designed to help the serious athlete maintain their health, overcome injury faster, and prevent injury due to sports and other heavy, repetitive-use activities. Focusing on increasing flexibility, balancing strength on all sides of the body, and releasing cellular waste products from muscle tissues as they are strengthened in their particular activity, massage therapy is an excellent way to improve your performance, no matter what your activity of choice happens to be!
