Therapeutic Massage Therapy Services & Rates
Therapeutic
Therapeutic Massage combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes, such as rolling, kneading, and percussion, to help improve circulation.
The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Deep Tissue
Deep Tissue Massage relieves tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body and is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries.
You may feel sore after a deep tissue massage, and your therapist will communicate with you to ensure comfort levels are met.
It is essential to hydrate before and after these sessions.
Hot Stone
Hot Stone Therapy uses heated stones placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles.
Muscles heated with these stones release tension and stress faster and on a deeper level than with a traditional massage.
The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
TMJ Face Massage
Trigger Point therapy during a TMJ targets the internal and external muscles of the jaw, neck, and face.
This service is perfect for individuals who clench their jaw a lot, grind their teeth, suffer from lockjaw, or endure jaw-related headaches.
Plus, you'll learn some techniques to take home with you to maximize relief.
