It could also include the use of stretching, heated himalayan salt stones, therapy cups, or aromatherapy if desired.
Swedish Relaxation Massage
Swedish massage is the basic technique that most people think of when they think of a massage. Swedish massage features long, graceful strokes which increase circulation and blood-flow, decrease muscle tension, relieve muscular spasm and pain, and reduce swelling and inflammation contributing to a feeling of calm and relaxation. The basic philosophy of Swedish massage is to manipulate the soft tissue for therapeutic purposes to enhance the body's tendency to heal itself. Swedish massage strokes and principles may be combined with other techniques based on your specific needs.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a focused massage that reaches deeper layers of soft tissue. It is especially effective in working a specific joint, muscle, or muscle group, and is a good option for clients with specific needs. This massage releases chronic patterns of tension in the body through very slow strokes and deeper targeted pressure on tensed areas. This technique improves body alignment and freedom of movement. It is applied to a focused area typically combined with Cupping Therapy and Swedish relaxation massage.
Trigger Point
Applies concentrated finger pressure to tender areas in the muscle in order to break the cycle of spasm and pain. This is typically combined with Deep Tissue and Swedish Relaxation Massage.
Myofascial Release

It boosts the body’s ability to eliminate waste and tones the tissue by reducing swelling.

Pregnancy Massage
This nurturing, comforting massage session is specially designed for the mother-to- be. Using a specialized pregnancy massage cushion system the client is able to safely lie face down even during the third trimester. Pregnancy massage has many benefits; it reduces stress, promotes relaxation, and relieves muscle spasms, cramps and pain - especially in the lower back, neck, hips, and legs. It reduces the strain on weight bearing joints, reduces water retention and helps to improve breathing. It improves the lymphatic system and stimulates circulation which provides more oxygen and nutrients to both mother and fetus and helps to prevent varicose veins. Massage helps the expectant mother to be more relaxed and able to sleep more easily and deeply. Endorphins released during massage help relieve depression and anxiety and have been found to be especially beneficial for the fetus as well.
