Integrative Relaxation:
This style of massage is a combination of all the styles of massage. It’s main influence comes from Swedish circulatory massage. The treatment focuses on site specific pain and relaxation. It also uses passive joint mobility to free up stiffness in the joints. The massage is done on a table and oil is used to soften and lubricate the skin. It’s overall benefits include increased circulation, relief of stress, feeling of well being and total relaxation.

Swedish Massage:
This style of massage is the most commonly practiced form of massage in Western countries. Swedish massage intergrates ancient oriental techniques with modern priciples of anatomy and physiology. Practitioners rub, knead, pummel, brush, and tap the muscles. 

Neuromuscular Therapy:

This style of massage emphasizes the role of the brain, spine and nerves in muscular pain. One goal of the therapy is to relieve tender congested spots in muscle tissue and compressed nerves that may radiate pain to other areas of the body. 

Shiatsu:

This style of massage it the most widely known form of acupressure, shiatsu has been used in Japan for more than 1,000 years to treat pain and illness and for general health maintenance. Using a series of techniques, practitioners apply rhythmic finger pressure at specific points on the body in order to stimulate chi, or vital energy. 

Myofascial Release:

This style of massage is a hands-on technique that seeks to free the body from the grip of tight fascia, or connective tissue, thus restoring normal alignment and function and reducing pain. Using their hands, therapist apply mild, sustained pressure in order to gently stretch and soften the fascia. Myofascial Release is used to treat neck and back pain, headaches, recurring sports injuries, and scoliosis, among other conditions. 

Trigger Point/Myotherapy:

This style of massage applies pressure to specific points on the body to relieve tension. Trigger points are tender, congested spots on muscle tissue that may radiate pain to other areas. Though the technique is similar to shiatsu or acupressure, this therapy uses Western anatomy and physiology as its basis. 

Deep Tissue Bodywork:

This style of massage is a general term for a range of therapies that work to “unstuck” the body’s connective tissues and/or muscles to encourage them to function properly again. Among the conditions deep tissue bodywork treats are whiplash, low back and neck pain, and degenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
