Basic Swedish (Relaxation) Massage

Stress reducing and relaxing, this traditional massage focuses on your entire back, neck, limbs, hands, face, head and feet. It will renew your feeling of tranquility and revitalize your sense of well-being. (No deep work)

Deep Tissue Massage/Sports Massage

Designed to relieve tension, get rid of painful, tight, knotty areas, re-align scar tissue. It can also help rehabilitate injuries in ligaments, tendons and muscles. Deep Tissue/Sports Massage utilizes a combination of massage techniques such as acupressure, trigger point therapy, myofascial release and neuromuscular therapy. The therapist determines which combination of these techniques to use based on your needs and condition.

This session is also excellent as a "training massage" in between sporting events to help prevent injuries and to correct any problems before they get worse and allow you to train harder. If you are participating in a sport, this massage post-event will speed your recovery time and increase the flexibility of your muscles and joints.

Combination Relaxation with Deep Tissue/Sports Massage

Combining the relaxing benefits of the Swedish massage with the benefits of deep tissue massage and/or sports massage, the concentration is on those areas of your body requiring stronger, deeper work, with relaxation as the goal for the rest of you. An excellent choice when you need to de-stress but also need specific attention paid to tight ``knots", etc.

Seated Chair Massage

When your time is limited or you don't want to undress, seated massage is for you. The session is done with you sitting in a specially designed chair which allows the therapist to reach your back, shoulders and neck. Other areas of your body can also be worked depending on the length of session you reserved.

"Tune-Up, Fix-it" Sessions

If you have one area or spot that needs "fixing," come in for a "Tune-Up/Fix-It Session."  This is appropriate ONLY for non-chronic conditions. For example, that "kink" in your neck you woke up with, or the "twinge" in your knee when you run can probably be relieved easily. Usually done clothed, the focus is on reducing pain, breaking spasms and realigning scar tissue. You will feel much better after your quick session. (Available with a Level II or higher therapist only)

• Prenatal & Post Natal:

You can relax and take care of all your aches and pains and focus on YOURSELF! Massage has been proven to be good for you AND for baby! All those 'feel-good' hormones released in your blood during a massage also affect your baby and more oxygen is beneficial for you both too.

We specialize in massage for pregnant women and after delivery. You can lie (clothed or not) on a specially designed support pillow called the bodyCushion. You will love how it takes all the pressure off your hips, shoulders and back and allows your massage therapist to really get into your tight areas while you are relaxing comfortably!

So many therapists have asked me if they can buy these themselves, we have an arrangement with the company. If you call bodyCushion and mention our Director's name, (Irene Diamond) you will get a discount on your price.

For prenatal massage / pregnancy massage, we do recommend speaking with your health care provider if you have any complications with your pregnancy prior to receiving massage. This way we can be sure to provide you with the best care.

Many pregnant women ask about the massage tables that have the holes in them for your belly. We don't use them becuase there is no way to fit each woman's body and if your abdomen is not supported correctly, hanging through the hole can create too much strain on the ligaments and other tissue. Plus they are not comfortable. Our "Moms to be" LOVE the bodyCushion.

If you would like, we can come to you if you prefer.
