Several modalities may be used during your integrated massage, unless a specific modality is scheduled, or discussed before your massage
Swedish Massage
Deeply relaxing, a great stress-buster. Improves circulation, works tension out of your muscles and improves general health.
Relaxation Massage
A gentler version of Swedish massage. By stimulating the body's parasympathetic nervous system, blood pressure decreases, heart rate slows, and digestive activity increases. Breath deeply and let your troubles float far away.
Deep Tissue Massage
For chronic pain due to repetitive strain injury, soreness due to heavy physical activity, or for clients who have sustained physical injury. Deep, focused work can facilitate the healing process and help you to manage your pain.
Connective Tissue Therapy
A form of intense massage that aims to release myofascial (connective tissue) restrictions in the body. It has also been known to help relieve chronic tension, to increase the body’s range of motion, to improve posture and to enhance the natural harmony of the entire body and mind.
Trigger Point Therapy
A trigger point is an area of highly contractile muscle tissue within a taut muscle fiber (what most people call knots). Trigger points often refer pain and can be very uncomfortable. Trigger point therapy deactivates these points through finger pressure.
Gua Sha
An East Asian technique which promotes the flow of Qi (energy) and blood throughout the body for overall health. It is used to to treat (as well as prevent) the common cold, flu, bronchitis, asthma, as well as any chronic disorder involving pain. Gua Sha involves repeated pressured strokes over lubricated skin with a smooth edge. Gua Sha treatments are not painful. However, a Sha "rash" often remains for 2-4 days after treatment. Red spots are an indication that toxins are being released. Where the area is deep purple the blood is old and extremely stagnant. A dark green discolouration is a sign that stagnant blood and toxic Qi are being released from the system.
Cupping Treatment
Cupping is an ancient Chinese healing technique. Special cups are placed on the skin creating a suction which draws up the underlying tissues. The cup is then left in place for a few minutes. Blood stasis is formed and localized healing takes place. Cupping helps to release toxins, activates the lymphatic system, clears blockages, strengthens the veins, arteries and capillaries, and rejuvenates the skin. Also improves the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite.
Fertility Massage
This abdominal massage increases circulation, aligns and tones the uterus, breaks up adhesions, clears blockages, and supports normal reproductive health. Whether you are just starting to plan a family, or you've been trying for sometime, this massage can help to bring a new little one into your life. Self massage and castor oil pack treatments are taught within the first session. Follow up sessions can be a refresher or a part of a longer massage.
