Stretch Therapy
This therapeutic stretching treatment will decompress the joints and loosen the muscles. Your therapist will work put you in position then compress, stretch, or guide you through a series of passive or active resisted stretching exercises. No need to undress, just wear something loose you can move and be moved in. This treatment will integrate aspects of sports stretching, compression massage, and Thai massage.
Fijian Barefoot Massage
Fijian Barefoot massage is another barefoot modality. The big difference from the other types of barefoot massage I perform is that the client lays on a mat on the floor and is fully clothed during the massage. The experience of Fijian Barefoot massage is a deep compression massage with very little gliding. I found it to be deeply relaxing and a wonderful reset for a tired back.
Manual Lymph Drainage
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a gentle type of massage that promotes the movement of lymph fluid throughout your body. Moving lymph keeps us healthy and younger by assisting in creating more immune cells, transporting immune cells, and removing cellular debris from the body. MLD has positive impacts on immune strength, anti-aging, edema issues, palliative care for hospice patients, pre- and post-surgical pain and bruising, constipation and that sluggish, bloated feeling. Call today to find out if Manual Lymph Drainage is the right fit for your needs.
Reflexology
A massage where I focus mainly on your feet for an hour then finish up with hands, face, head, and ears. Many people find this massage helpful for foot pain or if they cannot receive full-body massage. Reflexology offers many of the same relaxation benefits of full-body massage and leaves your feet feeling toe-riffic!
Thai-Yoga Massage
Or Vedic Thai Massage or Assisted Asana Massage, it’s called a lot of different things, but the long and short of it is that it’s wonderful. This massage is performed on a floor mat with the client fully clothed. I will guide you through a series of yoga asanas gently extending your current range of motion and applying appropriate compression massage. This massage is great for joint decompression and stretching and leaves you feeling very open and loose.
