Massage
Deep Tissue Massage releases chronic muscle tension using slower strokes and more direct pressure or friction applied across the grain of the muscles.
Sports Massage is for athletes who train continuously. It focuses on the muscles relevant to the particular athletic activity. It also includes pre-event, post-event and maintenance techniques that promote greater athletic endurance and performance and lessen chances of injury and reduces recovery time.
Myofascial Release is a form of soft tissue therapy used to treat pain and restriction of motion. Fascia is the soft tissue component of the connective tissue that provides support and protection for most structures within the human body, including muscle.
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is an alternative medicine therapy. A CST session involves the therapist placing their hands on the client to gently work with the spine, skull and fascia to ease restrictions of nerve passages. CST can relieve mental stress, neck and back pain, migraines, TMJ syndrome and chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia.
