Services Offered
I practice a wide range of modalities, including:
- Deep tissue massage uses deep, focused pressure to realign underlying musculature and connective tissue in order to relieve tension and pain, and increase mobility.
- Medical massage focuses on relieving chronic or acute pain from surgery, injury or a medical condition. Can alleviate depression associated with any such condition and speed the recovery process. I have advanced certification in medical massage.
- Pain management helps manage and relieve chronic or acute pain.
- Sports massage helps treat injury, prevent future injuries, decrease pain, and increase mobility, improving athletic performance. I have advanced certification in sports massage.
- Myofascial release stretches and elongates connective tissue in order to reduce fascial restrictions and improve posture and flexibility.
- Trigger Point therapy applies direct pressure to specific hyperirritable points located within taut bands of muscle tissue or fascia. This increases blood flow to the area and releases the trigger point. This therapy decreases local and referred pain, improves mobility, and helps prevent further trigger points from developing.
- Prenatal & Perinatal Massage - These facilitate stress reduction, pain relief, and improved health for both the mother and baby throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum recovery. I have advanced certification in prenatal massage.
- Swedish massage is a soothing, relaxing massage using firm but gentle pressure. Main benefits include stress reduction and improved circulation.
- Shiatsu massage is an ancient Japanese healing method performed with client in loose, comfortable clothing. Shiatsu works energy meridians with point pressure and passive stretching in order to strengthen the vital organs and harmonize the body, mind and spirit, reducing pain and disease due to blocked or unbalanced energy.
My work usually incorporates a combination of different techniques in order to best meet my client’s needs.
