Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is all about working with the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to improve mobility, relieve pain, and address chronic tension. While many people associate it with intense, painful pressure, true deep tissue work is more about targeting specific areas effectively—not just pressing harder. I adjust the pressure based on your needs, ensuring a therapeutic experience that releases tension without unnecessary discomfort which can be anywhere from light to firm pressure.

Whether you're dealing with postural imbalances, muscle tightness, or just need focused relief, deep tissue techniques help restore proper muscular and structural function.

Sports Massage

Sports massage focuses on improving range of motion, flexibility, and muscle function to support physical activity. It helps prevent injuries, aids in recovery, and targets overused or strained muscles. Techniques often include joint mobilization, cross fiber friction and ciculatory work to enhance movement and reduce tension. Whether for injury treatment or maintenance, sports massage keeps your body performing at its best.

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger Point Therapy targets tight, irritable spots in muscles—often called "knots"—that can cause pain and restricted movement. These trigger points can refer pain to other areas of the body, contributing to headaches, back pain, and muscle stiffness. By applying focused pressure and release techniques, this therapy helps deactivate trigger points, relieve tension and restore normal muscle function.

Medical Massage

Medical massage focuses on addressing specific medical conditions, injuries, or chronic pain. It combines various techniques, such as deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release, to target underlying issues and promote healing. Often recommended by healthcare providers, medical massage aims to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and accelerate recovery. It's designed to provide relief from conditions like muscle injuries, joint and nerve pain and post-surgical recovery. 

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage, also known as relaxation massage, is one of the most popular and widely practiced forms of massage. It uses long, flowing strokes, kneading, and circular movements to promote relaxation, improve circulation, and reduce muscle tension. This gentle yet effective technique helps to calm the nervous system, alleviate stress, and improve overall well-being. I love using Swedish massage in conjunction with other pain-relieving techniques. It enhances their effectiveness by helping you to relax and allowing deeper treatments to be more comfortable and effective.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy massage is designed to support the unique needs of expectant mothers by relieving the aches and pains that come with a growing belly and hormonal changes that make your joints looser. It helps reduce swelling, improve circulation, and ease tension in areas like the lower back, hips, and shoulders. I use a specialized bolster to support the belly so you can lie facedown, or we can accomodate your in a side-lying position. We can work together to assess which will be the best option to keep you and your baby comfortable and safe. Regular pregnancy massage can also help with better sleep, reduced stress, and overall relaxation during this special time.
