Therapeutic massage is designed to relieve severe tension in the muscle and the connective tissue or fascia. The massage focuses on the muscles located below the surface of the top muscles. Therapeutic massage is often recommended for individuals who experience consistent pain, are involved in heavy physical activity, such as athletes, and patients who have sustained physical injury.
Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. The massage therapist uses slower strokes or friction techniques across the grain of the muscle. This massage is used for chronically tight or painful muscles, repetitive strain, postural problems, or recovery from injury. People often feel sore for one to two days after a deep tissue massage.
Aromatherapy massage is massage therapy with the addition of one or more scented plant oils called essential oils to address specific needs. Therapists will select oils that are relaxing, energizing, stress-reducing, balancing, or whatever your specific needs may be. Aromatherapy massage is particularly suited to stress-related conditions or conditions with an emotional component.
Prenatal massage is designed specifically for the needs of pregnant women. Certified massage therapists safely position and support the body while modifying techniques to ensure comfort and effectiveness. This personalized approach can help reduce stress, ease aches and pains, decrease swelling, and promote emotional well-being throughout pregnancy. Each session is tailored to the mother’s individual needs, providing gentle, supportive care for both body and mind.
