Select type of massage for full description...

SPORTS MASSAGE:
Whether you train hard, compete hard, &/or work hard, this is just the treatment to help improve your performance. Every time movement occurs, a muscle or group of muscles must contract or shorten. All repetitive shortening needs lengthening to maintain balance and function.

Sports Massage is therapy applied in the context of athletic training & competition to meet the specific goals & needs of an athlete.

Benefits include:
• Support of high-quality training & competition
• Reduced recovery time from training & competition
• Assist in prevention of injury
• If injury occurs, amplified recovery & rehabilitation

Function of motion & flexibility are the primary focus. Various stretching & traction techniques are utilized.

SM combines compression, body mobilization, & stretching techniques that are intended to utilize & condition the body’s joints & skeletal muscle tissue relative to every athletic need.

Sessions are conducted with clients comfortably clothed.

CLINICAL PROGRESSION MASSAGE:
Everyone experiences soft tissue abnormalities or "knots". Muscular imbalance incurs soft tissue compensations that have tendency to inhibit circulation &/or impinge nerve function, causing discomfort & disrupting function. Typically compared to a "Deep Tissue" treatment, Clinical Progression Massage combines a host of specialized techniques to help treat any imaginable causal factor (that which has an effect on tissue, action, &/or postural alignment) at every level of tissue structure (deep or superficial).

The intent of a Clinical Progression Massage is to assess soft tissue to locate areas of pathology and to facilitate change in that tissue to promote ideal function.

By using Kinesiology (study of muscles & movement), adverse conditions affecting soft tissue integrity are treated.

These conditions include, but are not limited to:

• ADHESIONS: Binding of adjacent layers of soft tissue
• BLUNDT INJURY OR SURGERY: Altered tissue from trauma &/or scar tissue
• SOFT TISSUE STRAIN: Traumas to a muscle or a musculotendinous unit due to repetitive movement,excessive contraction, or forceful stretch
• SOFT TISSUE STIFFENING: Formation of fibrous tissue as a reparative or a reactive process in an area it does not normally occur
• ISCHEMIA: Lack of blood flow through an area or tissue
• MYOFASCIAL TRIGGER POINTS: Myofascial trigger points (palpable tender spots due to overstretched &/or weakened skeletal muscle tissue that are hyperirritable when compressed, that refer or radiate pain in a characteristic pattern)

Multiple sessions may be necessary on similar area if extensive soft tissue pathology exists.

Unique specifics of muscle addressing can always be created based on cut required.

THERMAL THERAPIES:
Maybe you enjoy the relaxing essence of a Hot Stone Massage. Or, maybe you prefer the invigorating stimulation of ice Therapies. Perhaps you want both with Contrast Therapy (hot & cold).

Thermal Therapies are the application of a variety of agents that induce temperature changes within the tissues of the body for therapeutic effect.
(Heat / Ice / Contrast)
These treatments are used in conjunction with a Clinical Progression Massage for more chronic pains & tissue abnormalities, or as a relaxation & stimulus agent.

Note: Hot Stone Therapy available only at select locations.

STRESS REDUCTION MASSAGE:
Imagine reversing the constant stressors of gravity and daily life.
Gravity is a massive force constantly pulling us toward the center of the earth. Most every position we exist in can be a strain on our kinetic chain. Every body could benefit from this tissue tune-up.

Stress Reduction Massage or relaxation massage is therapy that involves techniques to primarily improve circulation and decrease tissue tension.

Skin lubrication is used.
Proper draping is always used.

This treatment reverses the constant stressors of gravity and daily life.
30 min sessions include: Head, Neck, Shoulders, & Back.
60 min sessions include: Full-Body Addressing.
Complimentary Aromatherapy Available Upon Request.

Benefits Include:
• Increases general & local circulation & venous return of blood
• Stimulation of skin's sensory receptors
• Enhances joint mobility
• Encourages Para-Sympathetic Nervous System response (relaxation)
• Stimulates release of endorphins ("feel-good hormones")
• Increases lymphatic flow (immune system)
• Improves digestion through relaxation
• Improves self awareness
• Produces general feelings of well being

CHAIR MASSAGE:
Chair Massage improves professsional morale & productivity. Treatment is given with the recipient seated in a specialized massage chair. These sessions are ideal for quick refreshers & to help combat the tension effects of gravity & stress. Benefits can be attained in relatively short duration (5-20 min).

This allows multiple clients to receive treatment just about anywhere.

Sessions are conducted with clients fully clothed.

Basic Chair Massage utilizes techniques from Stress Reduction.
Clinical Chair Massage utilizes techniques from Clinical Progression.
