Dream students often say doing Hatha Yoga is like getting "an internal massage." Yoga does work out a lot of tension and tightness. But deep tissue, therapeutic, sports and other massage and Healing Arts Services can support your yoga practice or any other physical activity you do.

 

Other benefits of massage include:

  • Decrease stress and anxiety.
    • Lower your heart rate and blood pressure.
    • Increase circulation and lymph flow, enhancing the immune system.
    • Increase flexibility and range of motion.
    • Boost levels of endorphins (the body's natural painkillers).
    • Improve alertless.
    • Experience a greater sense of overall well-being.

 

Come see for yourself the difference a good massage or other therapeutic healing art can make for you! Schedule an appointment with one of our excellent massage therapists. See three ways to schedule below.

Deep Tissue Massage

Aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle & fascia, Deep Tissue Massage uses many of the same techniques as Swedish Massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense.  Administered in conjunction with other bodywork therapies, such as Sports Massage & Neuromuscular Therapy, Deep Tissue relieves chronic muscle tension and breaks up connective tissue adhesions.  Great for alleviating tension & pain due to overuse, injury, poor posture, stress, etc.

Therapeutic Sports Massage

Designed to enhance athletic performance and recovery, Sports Massage combines Swedish, Deep Tissue & Neuromuscular techniques with cross-fibering, compression, myofascial release, lymphatic drainage and other methods to maximize the supply of nutrients and oxygen in the bloodstream while enhancing elimination of the metabolic by-products of exercise.  More and more professional and amateur athletes are finding massage to be a critical component of their training program. There are three contexts in which Sports Massage can be useful to an athlete: Pre-event, Post-Event and General Maintenance/Injury Treatment and Prevention.  Regular massages can greatly reduce the chance of injury, increase range of motion, speed recovery time and enhance the mind-body connection, all allowing for improved power and performance.

Swedish Massage

This classic form of massage uses strokes of various pressure and a variety of techniques to lengthen muscle tissue; relieve pain from tight, cramped muscles; ease restricted areas; and stimulate circulation. This is the most basic form of  massage, recommended for those new to massage or those wanting tension release and relaxation from their session. Swedish Massage:

  • Reduces pain in shoulders, neck and back.
  • Relieves soreness and stiffness.
  • Helps remove toxic metabolic waste products
  • Boosts immunity and sense of well-being
  • Refreshes mental and physical fatigue
  • Improves digestion and elimination.

The deep relaxation helps your body to heal and act more efficiently.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy

Our bodies are 87% water, so connecting to the fluid body is very beneficial.  CST is a gentle, light touch technique that can be performed with the client clothed.  The pressure is minimal and the client is ushered into deep states of relaxation and release.
