Our Licensed Therapists Offer
European/Swedish Massage
Focuses on the body’s soft tissue to promote a balanced state of health. Techniques such as stroking, kneading, tapotement, vibration and friction can enhance and assist in the recovery from injuries. European Massage has been proven to decrease heart rate and blood pressure, improve circulation and lymph flow and increase the body’s own pain killers called endorphins. It is also beneficial in pre and post sport events, stress reduction, improving joint movement, soothing muscle aches, pain, stiffness and decreasing spasms.
Hot Stone Therapy
An ancient art of healing by elements of mother nature to bring relief to tense muscles, stressed emotions and a weary spirit. By massaging with the deep penetrating heat of smoothed stones, your therapist is able to deeply and effectively work your muscles and balance your energy. Please note that this service has special time requirements and pricing.
Reflexology
A reflexologist uses their hands to apply gentle pressure to the feet. By working on specific points, the reflexologist can release blockages and restore the free flow of energy to the entire body. Tensions are eased and circulation is improved. The feet are the hardest working, yet most neglected part of the body! Treat them well by scheduling your reflexology session TODAY.
