Swedish massage
Deep tissue massage
I offer two different types of massage; Swedish and Deep Tissue. They use different movements, motions and pressures to provide you with different benefits.
Swedish Massage
If you are looking for a relaxing experience with light to medium pressure, then a Swedish massage is the one for you. The main goal of this is to relax the body and mind and to promote well-being. This is done by massaging the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood going back to the heart.
Benefits include:
Deep Tissue Massage
If you are looking for firmer pressure to help with chronic aches, pains, stiffness and muscle tightness then a Deep Tissue massage is the one for you. I use firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles).
Some strokes may feel similar to those used in Swedish massage but deep tissue uses a particular technique to break up scar tissue and physically break down muscle “knots” that can disrupt circulation and cause pain, limited range of motion, and inflammation.
Deep tissue massage has been used for centuries for the therapeutic and health benefits. If you have a specific problem area let me know before hand and I can focus on that area to help relieve any pain or tension.
Benefits include:
There are a few important things to remember after you’ve had a massage:
Face and Scalp Massage:
Face and scalp massages are known to be extremely relaxing and healing, they can help to release the tension and stress of the day. This is because your scalp is covered in nerve endings and a massage focused on the scalp, sinuses, face and jaws can leave you feeling re-energized from head to toe.
