Swedish Massage is extremely therapeutic as it reduces stress, relieves muscle tension and pain, increases circulation, improves flexibility, helps with posture, and aids in the reduction of insomnia, anxiety and depression. Swedish Massage is generally performed with  gentle, light pressure. 

By treating the origin and insertion of specific muscles, this technique reaches deeper layers of muscles. It is used to break down muscular adhesions (knots), to treat chronic and acute strains and sprains and addresses injuries or conditions caused by repetitive use.  This massage can be beneficial for everyone, from competing athletes to those who sit or stand for extended periods of time.

Myofascial release therapy utilizes gentle, sustained pressure into the  connective tissue to eliminate pain and restore flexibility and motion to the body. This technique is combined with stretching the restricted fascia and using active release and pin and stretch methods. 

Rehab Treatments are offered by Gabriela Velazquez, an L.M.P. for over 20 years. She has worked with numerous Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, and Naturopathic Physicians.  Rehab treatments include post-surgical procedures, such as Total Hip Replacements, Spinal Surgeries and Fusions, Rotator Cuff surgeries, etc. and most musculoskeletal injuries, work-related repetitive injuries and M.V.A’s.  

Prenatal Massage supports the dynamic physical and emotional changes of pregnancy and is one of the safest and most effective ways to reduce stress, tension, pain and anxiety during and after pregnancy. Benefits may include decreasing muscle tension, increasing venous and lymphatic circulation, reducing swelling and normalizing blood pressure. 

Prenatal massage is available with Mary Frances Little Brave and Krista Zerby. Krista Zerby does not accept clients in their first trimester of gestation.

Hand-chosen basalt river stones are heated and used with oils to soothe, warm and massage tired, sore muscles. The stones allow your body to relax deeply, releasing tension and stress. The stones are used in hand and include deep tissue techniques (when requested). This treatment is a must for those cold, grey wintery days to lighten your spirits and elevate your mood.  Hot Stones are available as an “ADD On” with select therapists. 

Cupping therapy is a traditional, time-honored practice that utilizes the techniques of decompression and negative pressure, rather than compression. It is a safe, non-invasive modality that uses suction cups to create decompression which helps relive muscle tension and stiffness, reduce inflammation and adhesions, and provide relief for many conditions. 

Cupping is available as an "ADD-ON" service to treatment with select therapists. 

This advanced therapeutic service is designed to help regulate your nervous system and release deep, emotionally held tension.
