Reflexology or Abdominal Massage Therapy

Reflexology focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet, hands and cranium and is an in-depth science that aims to harmonize the entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet, hands and ears. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, digestive complications and depression, to name a few.

Abdominal massage is a wonderful treatment for digestion, bloating, myofibril and myofascial therapy and lymph drainage. This is very sensitive work that can have outstanding benefits for the organs and nervous system.

Description of Techniques

SWEDISH MASSAGE

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils and/or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve 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.

DEEP TISSUE (DT) MASSAGE

DT is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries and aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Due to the nature of the work, open communication during the session is crucial to inform practitioner of trigger points, and areas of sensitivity; to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable and the session is as productive as possible. 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 therapy.

During intake the client and practitioner will discuss specific areas where the DT focus work will be done. Sometimes the therapist will find areas that which the client was not aware and these can be addressed during the service as well.

SPORTS MASSAGE

Sports Massage is designed for highly active people who engage in any type of athletics, both amateur and professional. 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.

Please book a Customized Full Body Massage and indicate whether this is for pre- or post- workout or competition. 

LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE

With a hand over hand sweeping motion that encourages blood circulation and redistribution to the heart through the lymph, this technique is good for periodic bloating or excess water weight, inflammation around the ankles, a stagnant mind, digestion and after elective surgery.

DRY BRUSHING

Dry Brushing is a technique to exfoliate the skin and is often performed before a mud wrap and can be used to increase circulation to the heart as well

ENERGY WORK 

Energy work clears the body of stagnate electromagnetic activity aka "life force", and brings the endocrine system back into balance for optimum health. Anytime emotional, physical illness or trauma has been experienced, one’s life force has become unbalanced.

Working directly with the energy field to restore balance and flow to the entire system this technique uses a subtle approach to repattern and reconnect pathways that have been compromised or broken due to stress, trauma or lethargy.

The body will respond with a subtle nudge or awakening, and thus ignite mind/body awareness. 

HOT STONES

Heated stones are placed at specific sites on the body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Targeted superficial muscle groups are heated using the stones to release tension and stress more quickly, and help to access deeper intrinsic muscle layers. Stones can be used as a hand tool for deep tissue techniques as well as placed or moved on the body. The overall experience is relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
