Deep Tissue Massage
This transformative style of massage can power through problem knots, alleviate chronic pain, and free impingements around old injuries. I solicit your feedback throughout to determine the optimal amount of pressure for deep relaxation. You’ll enjoy a good detox, better posture, and more fluid movement. And besides, deep tissue work just feels good!

Trigger Point Massage
Excellent after injuries, overuse, and for those who work long hours in the same position! You probably have trigger points in your muscles. Trigger points are your body's response to injuries and microtears, locking down the injured area to prevent further injury. Depending upon their location, they can cause anything from headaches, low back pain, to a lack of flexibility. Focusing on your issues, we search out and release trigger points in likely muscular culprits in an effort to alleviate your discomfort.

Get more from your body, with less effort! The focused strokes of Sports Massage improve your athletic performance pre-event, enhances your training post-event, and can improve recovery time on injuries that have been through a basic healing period. And, over several sessions, reduce your race times by improving tracking on key joints.

Massage For Jaw Pain
Do you have a chronically tight jaw, or grind or clench your teeth in your sleep? This hour massage focuses entirely on releasing and balancing the muscles related to the joint of the jaw, also known as the TMJ. Some of the major jaw movers can only be accessed from inside the mouth. So, this massage includes intra-oral work. (I use gloves for your safety.) Massage is an excellent way to ease jaw pain!

Pregnancy Massage
I tailor this massage to your trimester, comfort level and your experience… everyone’s pregnancy is different! First trimester clients will be shown a reflexology point for relieving nausea and receive a safe overall body massage. Second and third trimester clients may see a larger focus on gently easing lower back pain and swollen hands and feet. Plenty of pillows guarentee your comfort.
