This integrative style incorporates deep tissue bodywork techniques that aim to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue. Integrative 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 this tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial, and client participation is needed to activate opposing muscles.
First-time bodywork sessions will include an assessment, and comfortable clothing should be worn. I will then create an individually designed therapy session to fit your needs.
Swedish-style massage uses light to moderate pressure for a very relaxing style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with various strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Stretching is a dynamic system for improving your flexibility and overall well-being. As you probably already know, stretching your muscles reduces your chance of injury, strengthens your tendons, and improves your circulation. In this session, we will do a body assessment and target the fascial nets and areas of restriction. This will be performed on the mat using props (yoga blocks, bolsters, and straps.)

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.

Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule. Events include travel within 30 miles, over milage additional charges apply.
