Swedish massage is the most popular type of massage, stimulating circulation, flushing the circulatory system, releasing tight muscles, restoring range of motion, and relieving pain through soft tissue manipulation.
Therapeutic massage aims to create structural changes within the body, often focusing on a specific area of complaint generally through a series of regularly scheduled massages and a plan of treatment.
Deep tissue massage involves applying firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of connective tissue and create a release of muscle tension.
Offered in 30, 45, 60, 75, or even a 90 minute session along with steamed towels on the back, there is a massage available to achieve every level of pain relief and relaxation, for every schedule and budget.
