Our therapists dedicate their passion of healing to you, at your location.  

  • Swedish Massage- Swedish massage is based on techniques designed to treat both deep and superficial tissues, prevent and treat muscle injuries, pain and soreness. The therapist uses skilled manipulation combined with in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology to bring about pain relief. Massage techniques are aimed at correcting and normalizing the body’s soft tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia) and encouraging balance between the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. It also encourages the release of endorphins, the body’s own pain relieving chemicals. Remedial massage usually incorporates both Swedish and Deep Tissue massage techniques that are geared to release muscle tension and flush the muscles of metabolic wastes such as lactic acid.  
  • Thai Massage- Thai massage is also called Thai yoga massage, because the therapist uses his or her hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like stretches. Many people say Thai massage is like doing yoga without any work.  Muscle compression, joint mobilization, and acupressure are also used during treatment.  People describe Thai massage as both relaxing and energizing.
  • Deep Tissue/Sports Massage- Deep tissue is a more intense form of massage that was developed to stimulate the deep portions of thick muscles. Slow strokes, deep finger pressure, compression and friction are utilized to invigorate the muscle fibers, release tension and hasten the removal of waste products. Strokes run across the fibers of the muscles, tendons and fascia, there is a focus on specific areas to alleviate chronic patterns of tension in the body. This therapy also aids in the elimination of scar tissue. Deep tissue is often used in conjunction with other massage techniques such as Swedish and Sports massage. 
  • Trigger Point, Neuro-Muscular Therapy and Myofacial Release- Trigger points are small, hypersensitive areas located in body tissues such as muscles, fascia, ligaments and scars. They are usually found at the junction of the nerve and the muscle at points in the body that are lacking in oxygen and circulation and prone to spasm. The therapist is trained to skillfully locate and “deactivate” these points through direct pressure that may be momentarily painful but ultimately greatly relieving.  A variety of other massage techniques may be incorporated into the session. Trigger point therapy is excellent in the management of chronic pain, injuries and headaches. 
  • Reflexology- Reflexology is based on the principle that certain parts of the body reflect the whole.  Reflex points, which relate to all parts of the body, can be found in the feet, hands and ears. These points respond to pressure, stimulating the body’s own natural healing process. The body starts progressively clearing blockages, re-establishing energy flows and balancing itself, resulting in better health. There are many different styles and approaches used in reflexology however the basic principle is constant.  Subtle yet powerful, reflexology is becoming increasingly popular in the world of complementary therapies,
  • Hot Stone Therapy- In this massage treatment, this healing stone ritual incorporates warm sculpted river stones used as an extension of the therapists’ hands to bring you deep relaxation, grounding and perfect balance from head to toe. Cool stones alternately re-energise and stimulate muscles.
  • Acupressure Pressure- Acupressure uses pressure on activation points to stimulate circulation in the body. Illnesses are looked at, as being blockages to circulation, and with the correct choice of points these stagnations, or blockages can be cleared. Developed in Asia over 5,000 years ago, acupressure is an ancient healing therapy that utilizes fingers to depress key locations on the skin’s surface to prompt healing within the body. Similar to acupuncture, acupressure uses the same reference points on the body that release muscular stress; thus encouraging better blood circulation. Acupressure is very beneficial as it can relieve pain and bring the body back into harmonious balance.
  • Shiatsu- Shiatsu literally translates as ‘finger pressure’ and is a Japanese therapy that has its origins in Oriental medial theory and traditional Japanese massage techniques. The Japanese adopted Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practices and enhanced its methods to develop the unique form of treatment no known as Shiatsu.  Shiatsu therapists treat the whole body as well as specific problem areas by also addressing both emotional and physical wellbeing. The aim is to treat the body by balancing the flow of Ki (life energy), applying pressure to obstructed or weak areas. This relieves symptoms and resolves conditions, improving the patients strength and vitality.
  • Pre-Natal- Pregnancy places strong demands on a woman’s body, massage not only relieves the tensions and aches caused by the extra weight and shift in the center of gravity to the body, but it reduces swelling, soothes the nervous system, acts as a tonic, reducing fatigue, and enhancing energy. Pregnancy massage is based on a blend of Swedish and Remedial massage techniques. To
