Swedish Massage
Enjoy a relaxing massage focused to help wind down after your long day. Proven to encourage relaxation and deep recovery, Swedish massage uses a variety of effleurage and petrissage to encourage circulation in the body tissues. When the circulatory system is being flushed during this type of massage, muscle stiffness can subside and those “knots”, called adhesions, are gradually released. 60 mins $95 | 90 mins $133 | 120 mins $173

First timers love Swedish massages, and they make great gifts as pampering sessions for the workaholic or the busy parent who needs a little bit of Zen time. This amazing introductory massage treatment will leave you feeling ready to enjoy a soak in a hot bath and relax for the rest of your day or evening.
This massage encompasses a little bit of everything. It’s a multipurpose massage, making it the best choice for visitors who just need a little pick me up, or some much overdue rest and relaxation. It’s one of the most popular massage offerings for people who don’t have a specific area of concern they’d like to focus on, although special attention can be paid to areas that need some extra care.
Visitors who require something a little more focused would most likely benefit from a deep tissue massage, although many people with arthritis or aching backs swear by the reparative power of a Swedish massage. If you’re unsure which one you’d benefit from the most, just ask us.
Deep Tissue Massage
Known for the deep techniques and use of trigger point therapy, muscle energy techniques and muscle stripping, this massage is for those who have more chronic pain and tension. This treatment is suitable for releasing tight, strained muscles and helping with postural deviations, range of motion and whiplash syndrome as well as dealing with the everyday stresses of work and life. 60 mins $100 | 90 mins $140 | 120 mins $184

A deep tissue massage is the more sophisticated and intensive parent of a Swedish massage. Deep tissue massage is often known for the pressure that it utilizes, but it’s what that pressure does that makes this massage a standout for people who are looking to address special concerns. Since this massage is given with firmer pressure, it’s capable of affecting deeper layers of muscle and connective tissues. Adhesions and scar tissue from old injuries or overuse of a muscle are released, helping you improve your ability to live your life to the fullest without nagging dull aches or stiffness.
The immense relief provided by deep tissue massages is what makes them a top choice for people living with chronic muscular pain or conditions like fibromyalgia. Because deep tissue massages are easily able to be targeted to problem areas, you’re able to experience the relief exactly where you need it.
Hot Stone Massage
Our Hot Stone Massage is a form of massage therapy that peruses the similar principles of our Swedish Massage with the addition of calming heated stones, which helps lead to deeper relaxation by reducing tension. Adding heated stones to specific areas of the body enhance the feelings of relief and peace. Heated stones are perfect for individuals suffering from fibromyalgia, arthritis or other chronic pain. The penetrating effects of the heated stones allow the massage to be delivered without excessive pressure. 60 mins $108 | 90 mins $155

Cold causes things to contract, which is why many people put ice packs on injuries that swell. Heat causes things to expand, making it the perfect solution for muscle tension. A massage with hot stones causes a pleasant warmth to penetrate through the skin to the affected muscles. The motions of the massage help to reduce tension felt deep within the tissue.
The warmth and stimulation will improve the circulation within the area, encouraging oxygen rich blood to flush the tissues. This blood carries the nutrients your muscles need to heal and function properly. The gentle massaging motion helps to pull away any lymphatic byproducts and lactic acid that may be contributing to muscular discomfort, essentially cleaning out the muscle.
The gentle nature of hot stone massage makes it an excellent option for patients who have sensitive nerves or lower pain thresholds, as hand massages typically apply more pressure. The heat overcompensates for that pressure, allowing for a gentle experience that won’t sacrifice the quality or benefits of a traditional massage experience.
Hot stone massage can be performed on targeted areas where the patient feels the most pain, or be utilized as a full body massage to promote a general feeling of overall wellness and relaxation.
Prenatal Massage
Mommy-to-be needs some care! This is a relaxing massage for mommy and baby. Energize and ease tension for mom with a massage to help relax her back and changing body. Maybe baby can get a little massage, too! Becoming a mom is one of the most wonderful things in the world, but as your baby grows, your body changes. Your muscles in your abdomen may slightly separate, and you might experience some back pain from your normal pregnancy “sway”. 60 mins $95 | 90 mins $135

When you’re feeling your best, your baby is also feeling his or her best. A prenatal massage can help release tension, making things like pregnancy yoga or light exercise a lot easier. In the later stages of a pregnancy, it can sometimes be a little difficult to get up off of the couch with grace and finesse. We can help relax you by minimizing or eliminating a lot of the tension that stems from your baby growing bigger, stronger, and healthier with each passing day.
A prenatal massage is a wonderful experience for both people – babies usually roll around and move more when the mommy’s tummy is massaged. Share the joy of life through massage by booking one for yourself or your special someone who is bringing a new life into the world (we’re looking at you, soon-to-be daddies)! Baby will be glad you did.
Sports Massage
Much like deep muscle therapy, this treatment is geared towards increasing range of motion, circulation and stretching worked muscles. Through the variety of muscle energy technique, compressions and active and passive isolated stretching, this treatment is great when you want to feel energized, mentally aware and focused, yet relaxed and rejuvenated. 60 mins $95 | 90 mins $140 | 120 mins $184

Athletic people often overuse specific muscle sets. If you do a lot of kicking, running, jumping, or skating, you’re putting a significant amount of stress on the muscles you depend on. It’s important to help those muscles repair and grow stronger, allowing you to achieve a higher level of athletic ability. Sometimes, some good old-fashioned rest and a sports massage can be exactly what you need to get back out there and do your best.
Even casual runners, joggers, and fitness enthusiasts can benefit from a sports massage – it’s not just for people who compete. Because sports massages centers on specific areas, anyone who lives an active lifestyle can benefit from the occasional sports massage. You don’t even necessarily need to have a sports injury. Regular sports massage can help reduce the potential for sports injuries by tending to the affected muscles before they’ve been worked past their limits. You’ll experience better flexibility and greater endurance the next time you set yourself in motion.
Massage For Pain & Injury
Many people are living with chronic pain somewhere in their body every day. Regular and continuous massage therapy can reduce and relieve pain from many specific areas that are suffering from pain. Some doctors recommend these kinds of massages as a follow up to a medical treatment, or to be used in conjunction with a larger treatment plan to remedy an injury. 60 mins $105 | 90 mins $144 | 120 mins $190

Since massage can help release the brain’s natural hormones that combat pain, serotonin in particular, people using massage therapy to treat their injuries or chronic conditions are able to experience relief on multiple levels. The increased natural production of these hormones can linger for a while, creating a gentle wave of calm that will follow you even after the massage is over. That’s why these kinds of massages are great for people whose pain makes it difficult for them to get a decent night’s sleep, which is a crucial part of the body’s natural recovery process.
Massage therapy can also aid in reducing scar tissue, improve circulation and mobility to help the affected areas of pain. To acheive the best results for treating pain and injury management, sessions are done weekly or bi-weekly, increasing time in between appointments upon improvement. It’s part of a larger process to help people affected by pain regain their autonomy and live their lives to the fullest.

Massage Add-Ons
Cupping
Integrating cupping into massage therapy offers many benefits that extend beyond those of standard massage techniques. Whether it’s enhancing circulation, reducing pain, minimizing inflammation, promoting detoxification, or improving relaxation, cupping adds a valuable dimension to the holistic care of the body.
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction.

Cupping has been used for centuries in various cultures for medical purposes. Modern wellness trends now incorporate cupping into massage therapy due to its unique benefits.
Cupping is believed to aid in the body’s natural detoxification process. The suction from the cups can help to mobilize blood flow to promote the removal of toxins from the body’s tissues. This is particularly beneficial when the cups are placed on the back, where toxin build-up can occur. By incorporating cupping into a massage, therapists can help clients stimulate a more effective detoxification process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should I get a massage for stress relief?
A: For managing everyday stress, one massage per month helps maintain relaxation and prevent tension buildup. If you’re experiencing high stress levels, weekly or bi-weekly sessions provide more significant relief by consistently reducing cortisol levels and promoting overall well-being.
Q: Will I be sore after a deep tissue massage?
A: Some mild soreness similar to post-workout muscle fatigue is normal after a deep tissue massage and typically resolves within 24-48 hours. Drinking plenty of water after your session and applying heat or gentle stretching can help minimize any discomfort while your muscles recover and release tension.
Q: Should I eat before my massage appointment?
A: It’s best to eat a light meal 1-2 hours before your massage rather than arriving on a full or empty stomach. A heavy meal right before your session can cause discomfort when lying face down, while being too hungry can make it difficult to relax and enjoy the experience.
Q: What's the difference between Swedish and deep tissue massage?
A: Swedish massage uses long, flowing strokes with light to medium pressure for relaxation and stress relief. Deep tissue massage uses slower, more intense pressure to reach deeper muscle layers and address chronic tension, pain, or specific problem areas. Your therapist can blend both techniques based on your needs.
Q: Do I need to undress completely for my massage?
A: You should undress to your comfort level. Most people remove all clothing for full-body massages, but you can keep undergarments on if you prefer. You’ll be professionally draped with sheets throughout your session, and only the area being worked on will be exposed, ensuring your privacy and comfort.
Q: Can I request a male or female massage therapist?
A: While we strive to accommodate preferences when possible, availability may vary based on our schedule and therapist specialties. We recommend mentioning your preference when booking to help us match you with the right therapist for your needs.
