I bring either my massage table, or chair, depending on the service. Table is the standard for home visits and chair is the standard for offices, unless otherwise specified. You can always request the table for offices as well! This is the more comfortable option.
There are no sheets provided for offices, as it is clothed work. I will still provide clean face cradle covers to use. Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. This type of massage is done with hands, knuckles, elbows, and forearms. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, and enhanced mental clarity.
Hot Stone Massage is a style of massage where heated stones are used on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles.
Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating. Deep Tissue is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries.
Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be had to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released. Instrument Aided Soft Tissue Manipulation, aka Scraping, helps mobilize superficial fascial adhesions.
