Massage aims to boost circulation, reduce tension & stress, aid in digestion, revitalize and increase relaxation, as well as mental clarity, among other things.
We offer different types of massage and add-ons.
Relaxation
Massage Add-Ons
*Swedish: Long, flowing, relaxing strokes to calm the mind & body. Pressure is light to firm, not deep.
*Opening the Poles: Head, neck, shoulders, hands & feet. May include Reflexology and/or Swedish-style strokes.
*Deep Tissue: Therapist uses elbows, knuckles and other sharper areas of his or her body to venture deeper into the body to work out tension in muscle tissue located closer to the bone. This massage is not for the faint of heart
*Full Body Stretching: Patient wears loose fitting workout clothes during the entire session. The CMT will use stretches, compressions and acupressure points. This treatment can be delivered on a massage table or on a mat on the floor.
*Prenatal: Depending on the stage of pregnancy, the patient will receive a Swedish style massage. Special pillows will be used for moms-to-be who cannot lie on their tummies.
*Warm Stone: This Swedish-style massage incorporates warm stones from a babbling brook heated either in a crockpot or a heating cabinet. The heat from the stones warms the muscles, bringing relaxation faster.
*Polarity: This energy-based massage combines the “best of's” from Ayurvedic, Shiatsu and Reiki-style massage modalities.
*Lymph drainage: Using an exfoliating glove and starting at the feet, the CMT will gently apply strokes toward the heart to cleanse the lymph nodes, releasing toxins from the body and helping reduce water retention.
*Aromatherapy: Patients can chose from a variety of scents that help them achieve the mood/feeling they seek, such as revitalize, calm, headache relief, etc.
Note: Mix and match the add-ons. Add 15 minutes to your session when you choose 2 add-ons. Add 30 minutes when you choose 4 add-ons.
