The deep tissue massage is ideal for those who have high levels of daily stress, and is especially good for highly active individuals.   This massage is a deep penetrating intensified approach to release muscle tension that relieves aches, pains, and removes lactic acid build-up in muscles and joints.  Using slow strokes with deeper more intense finger pressure that run across the muscles, this technique works best on targeted areas to release muscle tension or adhesions due to chronic injuries or conditions.  The vital therapeutic benefit is to make you feel energized, balanced, and relieve chronic pain.

Sports massage is a type of massage which combines Swedish massage technique to stimulate circulation of blood and lymph fluids.  A focused massage is applied with a vigorous motion to deeper muscles and connective tissue using oil or a suitable penetrating muscle rub.  This pre-event sports massage helps athletes avoid injury, function properly during training, and helps athletes prepare their bodies for optimal performance.  With regular maintenance, massage over time enhances performance, promotes the health and agility of an athlete at any level, expedites recovery time after an event and rehabilitation after injury.

Swedish

30 minute: $40
60 minute: $65
90 minute: $105

Swedish massage refers to a combination of five different hand stroke techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying firm gentle pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.  It involves the use of kneading, stroking, friction, tapping, and vibration and may provide relief from tension, restore circulation, stiffness, numbness, pain, constipation, and other health problems.   The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles. Other possible benefits include stimulation of circulation, an increase in muscle tone, and a balance of the musculo-skeletal systems.  Swedish massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes.  It increases circulation without increasing heart load.
