Swedish
Swedish massage is the most common form of massage therapy. It uses a variety of light flowing strokes to relax the body. This is done by helping oxygen rich blood enter all of the muscles. Between the fluidity of motion and the relaxing enviroment provided during a session, both the body and the mind can be put at ease.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is different than Swedish. Instead of using quick flowing strokes as one would see in Swedish massage, long, slow strokes are used instead. This is so the therapist can gradually go in to the deeper muscles of the body which can help reduce pain in the area that is being worked on. Another major difference that seperates Neuromuscular Therapy from other massages is that it is not a full body massage. Sessions are centered on one area of the body allowing the therapist to focus on the targeted area.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot Stone massage is for those who like the benefits of a deep tissue but not the extra pressure. Our basalt stones are heated to a comfortable temperature then moved along the back and other trouble areas. The combination of the heat and the strokes provide a soothing but deep massage. (Unfortunately, hot stone is not for everyone so please discuss with the therapist if this modality is right for you.)
Prenatal Massage
Prenatal massage is geared for the mommy-to-be. It is a full body Swedish massage that is altered for the expecting mother's changing body and growing baby. Light stretches help reduce the common pains that can be experienced during pregnacy,
Postpartum Massage
This modality is to help mothers feel like themselves after having a baby. It is still a Swedish massage but it is focused on helping the problem areas a new mom may have. It's great way for a new mom to have a few minutes to herself.
Mommy and Me Massage
This massage is geared for the new mom and the new baby (ages 4 weeks to 4 months). Whether the infant is moms first or fifth child this massage can be utilized for relaxation and stress management.This massage allows for the mom to bring her little one to her appointment where she will be given information on infant massage that mom may find beneficial while caring for a fussy baby. In addition a soft, safe rocker sleeper will be availble for the baby to rest in right by mom so that mom can enjoy her massage. This is a great way for a new mom to enjoy a massage knowing her baby is close by. Massage time will be adjusted to allow time to care for your little one.
Pediatric Massage
This modality can be benefical for children/teens of all ages . It can be used as one form of maintenance in children that participate in athletics or to help calm those who may have trouble relaxing. During the session all of the control is given to the child. This includes the type of music selected, the length of the session and to what extent the child wants to participate. A guardian MUST be present during the massage at all times.
Mini Massages
Our 30 minute mini massages are perfect for those who want to treat themselves without breaking the bank. These massages can focus on the feet, the hands or the head, neck, shoulders and face. We use hot towels on troubled areas to help warm the tissue and loosen muscles. The towels can also be used to help break up congestion caused by allergies. We use one of two essential oil blends for the head and neck area, while the feet or hands recieve a sugar scrub. As always, the areas selected will be massaged during this time.
Chair Massages
Chair massage is good alternative for people who are always on the go or who may not be comfortable with getting on a table. The primary focus is on the back, neck and shoulders. All work is done through the clothing and no lotion is used, The time of a chair massage can vary but the benefits can equal to what can be done on a table. We offer mobile chair massage to local businesses. Contact us for more information.
All of our table massages ( chair massages excluded ) end with a complimentary hot towel to wipe off any excess oil, and a glass of water once the client has finished dressing.

Sugar Scrubs
Our sugar scrubs are great for those who may have dry skin on areas such as the feet or hands. We use a homeade scrub that only includes organic coconut oil, pure white sugar and a couple of drops of essential oils. The hot towels will wipe away any remaining scrub, Our scrubs will have your feet and hands soft and smelling sweet. You can choose between a clove and orange blend, a chamomile and spearmint blend or an unscented scrub. This service can be added to any of our massage services.
Aromatherapy
This form of therapy uses a scent of the client's choice in order to relax or breathe easier. We use pure essential oils in a diffuser to lightly scent the room. For some of our more popular oils, we have scented lotion that pairs with the scent in the diffuser.
