This is accomplished using deep tissue and “intention” techniques. Expect “this feels good” pain but we want to avoid “get away from me” pain as we find and hold trigger points, adhesions and tender spots. We often use a few hot stones to help speed trigger point release. We recommend 90 minute appointments for a through treatment.
Relaxation massage can be just the ticket when what you really need is a “mini” vacation. Our focus here is total relaxation and “fluffing” of your para-sympathetic nervous system. Clients often fall asleep during a relaxation massage. If you have significant neck and shoulder or low back pain, you probably will be better served with a Clinical Treatment massage.
Hot Stone massage is the ultimate relaxation technique. The heat from the stones gliding across your tissues sooths and relaxes tired muscles while sending a “grounding energy” deep through your body. We find our stones on local beaches. They work with us for a while, then we return them to the beach and invite other stones to participate for a bit.
SIDE BY SIDE We offer side by side massage for couples. When you want to share the experience with your significant other, we put two tables in our treatment room and we work on both of you simultaneously. Each of you can choose to receive any of the specific types of treatment.
TANDEM MASSAGE A unique treatment. Both of us work in tandem on you for the duration of the appointment. If needed, one of us can be doing “energy work” while the other continues traditional massage. Otherwise, we both work down opposite sides of your body complementing each others strokes. This is a truly sensory experience and I think it is the ultimate in massage treatment.
PERSONAL TRAINING I offer “one on one” personal training and weight management coaching. Whether your goal is to simply “tone up” or to finally lose unwanted pounds I will design a work out specifically for you. Intensity is the secret for success, but intensity needs to be geared to your level of fitness.
