Swedish Massage
The most well-known form of massage therapy. It gently relaxes the entire body combining various hands-on techniques including gliding, kneading, and cross-fiber friction to break up muscle knots, called adhesions. It can be slow and gentle, or vigorous and bracing, loosening tight muscles and reducing stiffness, removing energy blockages within the body and increasing blood and lymph circulation.

Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage uses firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles). It's used for chronic aches and pain and contracted areas such as a stiff neck and upper back, low back pain, leg muscle tightness, and sore shoulders.

Lomi Lomi Massage
This traditional Hawaiian massage is a great choice for an exotic massage experience, or for a full body workover. Lomi Lomi is done on the entire body at once including the underside of the body using long flowing strokes from head to toe. The massage is usually a medium firm pressure but it can be deeper or lighter depending on your preference.

Massage Cupping
Massage cupping works by lifting and separating the restricted tissue to loosen the tight muscle fibers. When the muscles become restricted the fibers stick together, called adhesions. With the cups we can separate the fibers and stretch the fascial banding around the the fibers so they can move more freely and independently. At the same time, bringing fresh oxygen and nutrient rich blood flow to further encourage healing.

Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is a holistic healing treatment that uses natural plant extracts to promote health and well-being. Sometimes it’s called essential oil therapy. Aromatherapy uses aromatic essential oils medicinally to improve the health of the body, mind, and spirit. It enhances both physical and emotional health.

Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage
Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage not only adds more pressure but it also adds compression. And it throws myofascial stretching into the mix. Compression massage squeezes the entire body from above and below. It also affects the internal organs. It is a soft structural integration that realigns the body. Skeletal adjustments often occur during a session. It also has myofascial benefits that relax and stretch contracted muscles. This unique modality combines three therapies into one.
