Different Types of Massage Therapy:
Swedish & Deep Muscle Massages
We offer two different types of massage therapy to ensure that we can provide services that will meet your needs.
A Swedish massage is a relaxing and reinvigorating experience. The Swedish style utilizes long, flowing strokes to increase circulation.
A deep muscle massage is firmer and applies more pressure to reach the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It releases chronic muscle tension through slower strokes and more direct pressure. This style of massage targets specific areas and may cause some soreness during and right after the session. This resolves within a day or two, leaving your muscles feeling refreshed.
Deep tissue massage benefits individuals who suffer from neck and back pain, as well as those who have other specific areas of concern.

Foot Reflexology

It is an effective and enjoyable method of detoxifying the body. Benefits of reflexology treatment include increased circulation, reduced tension, and energy point stimulation.
