This type of massage is for burn survivors who have been burned and have damaged tissue to the skin. This massage is good for breaking up scar tissue, helping alleviate pain, increasing flexibility and moisture to the skin, as well as helps with increase circulation.
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.

Incorporates plastic, glass, or silicone cups to create suction. Once the suction has occurred, the cups can be gently moved across the skin (often referred to as "gliding cupping). The suction in the cups causes the skin and superficial muscle layer to be lightly drawn into the cup. Cupping is much like the inverse of massage - rather than applying pressure to muscles, it uses gentle pressure to pull them upward. For most patients, this is a particularly relaxing and relieving sensation. Massage cupping is combined with a Deep tissue massage to first break up stagnate tissue with the use of the cups and then going in with hands and forearms. (Caution: that massage cupping leaves markings that can last up to 2 weeks.) |
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function; With use of either quick movements or slow relaxed stretches, you will be clothed and we will be doing an active massage meaning lots of assisted stretches.
Is your son or daughter's back aching from another school year due to a heavy backpack, or are they just getting back to normal or have currently had a sports injury?

Children ages 10 and under must have the parent present in the room during the massage and all children under the age of 18 must have a signed consent form from a parent. Please see, "Helpful Forms" page for the minor constent form.
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain. I also incorporate healing crystals in my practice to help bring the healing energy further into the body.
