Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy Back to Top

image

The root word "Ashi" means foot and "Atsu" means pressure - "foot pressure."  Many cultures utilize barefoot bodywork.  I am trained in Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy.  This barefoot massage technique uses deep compression effleurage strokes that glide over the body. Bars are used above the head for balance. Centrifugal and centripetal forces are incorporated with push/pull, and pumping effleurage movements, which can relieve symptoms of chronic soft tissue damage.  If you love deep firm pressure, you'll love this modality. Check out a video. Only the purest Organic Massage Cream by Biotone is used.



Lomi Lomi Back to Top

Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Therapeutic Massage - Lomi Lomi is the Hawaiian word for "massage", and it is part of a larger native Hawaiian tradition of healing and natural body care. According to Hawaiian tradition, all living beings are seeking a state of balance and love in the world. During a Lomi Lomi session, I focus on relaxing your body through gentle touch that is more rhythmical and flowing that includes gentle stretching, range of motion, rocking, forearm, and vibration.  Many of my deep tissue clients prefer Lomi Lomi, since it can affect the deep tissue without the pain.  Only the finest natural oils are used, such as Macadamia Nut OilHazelnut, and Grape Seed Oil, which are very nutritious for your skin.  Check out a video on YouTube.com.



Deep Tissue Massage Back to Top

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.



Swedish Massage Back to Top

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.



Sports Massage Back to Top

Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function.



Orthopedic Massage Back to Top

Orthopedic massage is a style of massage therapy focused on treating painful conditions that affect the soft tissues of the body. Because orthopedic massage is designed to treat medical conditions, it requires extensive training. It involves releasing tense muscles, helping to stretch and lengthen tight muscles and tendons, and decompress rigid joints. My goal is to restore full health to the soft tissues of your body, both treating your specific conditions as well as improving your overall well-being.



Acupressure Back to Top

Acupressure is based on one the most ancient principles of healing - that simply touching a specific point on the body will release stress and improve health in the body. In an acupressure session, I apply firm pressure directly to these "points" on your body, which relieves your muscle tension and improves your circulation. This simple and powerful technique has been shown to very effective in treating headaches, backaches, and even insomnia.



Myofascial Massage Back to Top

Myofascial massage is a technique used to treat injuries and discomfort, reducing pain and increasing range of motion. Myofascial massage differs from other types of massage in that it targets the fascia - the membrane surrounding muscles - rather than the muscle itself. Since fascia completely encases every muscle in the body, imbalances in the fascia can have serious effects on your range of motion and comfort level. While other forms of massage can overlook the fascia, myofascial massage focuses specifically on releasing tension in this important membrane.



Chair Massage Back to Top

$15 per 15 minutes

Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.
