Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It is the most basic, and most requested massage. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulatio over the entire body. 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.
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that uses structural integration techniques and re-patterning movements to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is 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 don't get too uncomfortable. Practitioners typically suggest a specific number of sessions lasting between 30-90 minutes depending on the area(s) being worked on.
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy aims to gently and rhythmically move the lymph through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system.
Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated basalt stones are used in several ways during the treatment. They are usually placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles, and/or used as a tool to massage the tissues. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
Advanced notice is absolutely required in order to have hot stone massage (time is needed beforehand for the stones to warm up.) If you would like a hot stone massage, please mention when initially booking your appointment.
For an aromatherapy massage you have the option of choosing an essential oil or blend of oils (or have me advise on what to use), and they will be blended into the massage lotion, or spread into the air by a diffuser, or both! I have a growing selection of essential oils that can be used for relief from all kinds of conditions.
Current selection of oils:
Peppermint
Lavender
Grapefruit
Turmeric
several calming blends + Kid-safe oil blends too!
Sarga is a 90 minute full-body treatment using the feet to apply slower, deeper, myofascial release techniques. This treatment must be requested in advance, and uses more setup time for the therapist. Depending on the space, table may be lowered onto the floor.
Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Pregnancy Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.

Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule. This is a great service to provide to your employees or other groups, such as Women's retreats, charity events, spa parties, sports events, and more! Please contact me to setup a contract for your event! Price varies by event size and by travel distance.
