Massage Modalities
Swedish/Cayce Reilly Massage: Swedish massage is the original & most popular type of massage. The Cayce Reilly technique is a unique method designed to improve circulation, stimulate nerve function and promote self healing through a balancing of the sympathetic nervous system. Deep Tissue Massage: This is particularly effective if you have significant problem areas of painful, tight or knotted muscles. This is a more intense massage experience, as deeper pressure will be applied to release tension in the body. Acupressure Somewhat related to acupuncture, but performed without needles, acupressure is based on oriental concepts of our energy pathways, called meridians. Gentle, direct finger pressure on specific release points has an amazing soothing effect on the body, and can relieve tension & pain by restoring harmony between the body & mind. Particularly effective for stress, fatigue, insomnia, headache, neck pain, digestive system & cramping. Clinical Bodywork: Often prescribed for painful conditions and injuries, this includes highly effective neuromuscular techniques, including myofascial release and trigger point therapy. The gentle stretching of connective tissue and direct, deeper massage of areas of accumulated stress can increase motion, flexibility, and relieve acute or chronic pain. The session includes a full assessment and development of a treatment plan that addresses the major causes of pain. This type of massage can be used to help with conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic pain, post-surgical pain, tendonitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Reflexology Our feet support us all day, every day…is it any wonder they ache or respond so much to touch? An extremely rejuvenating experience, areas of your feet which correspond to body tissues and organs will be gently manipulated and soothed to restore vital energy. Hot Stone Therapy The weight, warmth and rhythmic flow of specialized hot stones gently melt away the knots and stresses from your body. This is a deeply relaxing full body massage that includes the use of infused towels and stones selected for your specific needs, strategically placed on your body—even tiny stones between your fingers. Aromatherapy The use of plant oils for the health-boosting effects is an ancient art, reported to be at least 6,000 years old. Enhance your massage experience by incorporating one or more essential oils in a way that can positively affect emotional, mental and physical health. Several scents and combinations are available. Signature Treatments Promote detoxification and skin health by selecting a unique scrub or body masque treatment—using special blends of Ayurvedic oils and herbs to restore your natural balance.
