Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. It’s 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 do not become too uncomfortable.
This allows us to do our best to reduce the amount of discomfort that is common after the treatment. Pain is the body’s way of letting us know there is something wrong. If your massage therapist is causing you pain, there is something wrong. Plenty of water should be ingested to reduce the effects of any residual pain as well as aid with the flushing and removal of bodily acids that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Swedish Massage
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.
We also offer comfort touch, a technique used for our clients who are not able to withstand pressure.
Medical Massage, AKA Therapeutic or Orthopedic Massage
Different from regular Massage, this bodywork is specifically directed to resolve certain conditions, many of which are often diagnosed by a medical doctor. A variety of modalities or techniques are used during the treatment, however, the focus is on the specific areas of the body related to the diagnosis.
This enhances the body’s natural self-healing process and reduces the needed recovery time from injury.
Trigger Point Therapy
A trigger point is a specific area within a muscle or muscle group that, when stimulated or compressed, can cause pain and discomfort in other parts of the body. Trigger points are commonly found in areas of the body that are prone to tension and stress, such as the neck, shoulders, and back. They can be caused by various factors, including poor posture, overuse, injury, or stress. Trigger points are characterized by local tenderness, a palpable nodule, and often referred pain or discomfort in other areas of the body.
Sports Massage
Sports Massage is designed for highly active people who engage in athletics and is normally performed while at an event. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage Therapy 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.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage is a form of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time in which a woman’s body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical, mental, and emotional changes. Using various techniques specifically for the new mother, Pregnancy Massage helps alleviate discomforts experienced throughout the pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the reduction of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, improved breathing and relaxation, and relief from uncomfortable digestive issues.
Emotional Freedom Technique*
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping, is a therapeutic approach that combines psychological and acupressure techniques. By tapping on specific meridian points on the body while focusing on emotional or physical issues, EFT aims to restore the body’s energy balance and alleviate distress. This technique is used to address various problems such as anxiety, phobias, trauma, and limiting beliefs, as well as chronic pain.

Rapid Mind Renewal*
RMR is based on the scripture Romans 12:2 “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” The limiting thought processes and the belief systems that have been stifling your life are literally about to be shattered through your Q&A session with God almighty Himself. The goal of your session is to supernaturally renew your mind, so that what you believe is transformed rapidly. This happens at both a conscience and subconscious level.
