Therapeutic Massage A customized treatment of Swedish and Deep Tissue techniques is integrated into this therapeutic approach. Combined, these therapies allow the body to feel relaxed and restored while feeling the benefits of deeper muscle work. This treatment helps to release restrictions, improve circulation and encourage nourishment to areas of congestion. In addition, a therapeutic massage will help to lengthen muscle and connective tissue while increasing joint range of motion. Each session will begin with 100% pure grade essential oils. Sound healing frequencies are introduced into the session so that the mind can shut down and the body can transform into a calmer, more relaxed state. A therapeutic massage allows the body to feel restored while benefitting from deeper muscle work.
Massage with Magnesium Magnesium Calming cream made by TheraBlend® is a pure oil that contains 21 minerals, including magnesium, sodium, potassium and calcium. These minerals naturally occur in the body to help calm and soothe our system. When our bodies get depleted of these minerals, massage with magnesium can help. They work together to soothe and ease the body, resulting in a reduction of muscle cramping and quieting over-active nerve instigators. Nourishment to muscle tissue and massage therapy together help to restore hypertonic muscle tissue. Massage and magnesium help to combat fluid retention and serves as a great tool for problematic skin, bone and nail health.
Deep Tissue Massage Myofacial heating lotion or a Jojoba Chamomile cooling lotion is used in this Deep Tissue approach. Slow, intentional strokes are a means to penetrate deep into the layers of muscle and connective tissue, utilizing lotions that respond with heating or cooling. Deep Tissue Massage helps to address specific conditions in order to alleviate pain and help restore normal muscle movement. This modality is perfect for individuals in need of a specific area of focus. It is ideal in situations of acute or chronic issues, extensive muscle tension, limited mobility, and repetitive strain motions. Deep tissue massage allows for better functional movement patterns. Therapeutic Massage with Stretching Massage and stretching are complimentary treatments. In addition to receiving the benefits of a Therapeutic Massage, adding stretching to the session will enhance muscle response and recovery. Massage and stretching work together to help elongate muscles and increase range of motion to joints. Circulation to tissues is increased where restrictions and lactic acid build up. Combined, massage and stretching aid in better movement patterns and allow the area to become more fluid and functional. Joints that are stiff or restricted are encouraged to move more freely and the body is encouraged to relax and restore. Therapeutic Massage coupled with stretching is a functional tool to movement and recovery.
