Mind, Body and Balance Massage is unique because of the way we combine several massage techniques with a deep stroke for maximum effectiveness. This method releases muscle tension, awakens and lengthens the muscle giving it more blood flow and circulation as well as increased range of motion. In other words, we just plain make you feel better. Below are massage techniques we frequently use: Swedish Massage | Swedish Massage refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bone and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart. Therapeutic/Deep Tissue | Therapeutic, deep tissue massage focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue, releasing chronic tension through slow, deep strokes and finger pressure. Deep-tissue massage loosens tight muscles, releases toxins from muscles and improves blood circulation. Shiatsu | Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese healing method. Shiatsu uses pressure point and stretching. The shiatsu involves palms, fingers, thumbs, knuckles, elbows, knees and the feet to work on the body's acupuncture points, along what they consider the body's meridians or energy channels. It helps to balance a person’s energy flow, and strengthen the vital organs. Shiatsu means, "finger pressure.” Trigger Point | Trigger Point Therapy is a type of massage therapy that reduces and sometimes completely eliminates muscular pain. Applying specific gliding, compression, and stretching techniques to tender areas in muscles called trigger points which are both painful to touch and have the capability to "refer" pain to other areas. We also offer other techniques such as Thai Massage and Hot Rock Massage. If you are interested in a type of massage not listed here, please ask about it. |
