A massage can be a way to relax, but it can also be a way to recover. Massage therapy can effectively reduce stress, pain, and muscle tension. Your massage therapist will evaluate your muscles, connective tissue, tendons, and ligaments to address any pain points or simply promote relaxation.
Massage therapy can work for almost everyone. Whether you have back pain, muscle pain, or injury pain, massage therapy can help treat all kinds of conditions. We offer the following types of massage to promote relaxation and address pain points:
Jade is a protective stone used to heal stressed organs and discharge toxins. It slows the aging process and strengthens the body’s natural immune system. These stones are cut to various shapes and sizes and then polished providing a smooth and silky feeling on the skin. The use of massage stones is a great way to increase circulation in and around the area being massaged. Increased blood flow will help clear out toxins and assist in healing an injured or strained area.
Hot stone massage uses heated stones to increase the body’s temperature, allowing the muscles to relax for easier muscle work. Depending on your needs, your hot stone massage can be used for both relaxation and pain relief.
Your massage therapist will use a combination of the heated stones and their hands. The combination helps ease muscle tension, improve circulation, reduce pain, and promote relaxation.
Hot stone massage is not recommended for those who are pregnant, sensitive to heat, or have high blood pressure.

Prenatal massage is designed for mothers in their 2nd or 3rd trimester looking for relaxation and pain relief. During the massage, you can lay on your side or on a full-body contoured pillow, allowing you to lay on your stomach safely and comfortably.
The massage can be tailored to pregnancy-specific pain or any other issues. Some common pain points during pregnancy include lax ligament pain, hip pressure, sciatic pinching, back pain, and shoulder or neck pain, causing aches or headaches.

Recovery massage is designed to improve overall well-being both mentally and physically by increasing circulation, flexibility, and muscle engagement. It can help treat injuries, chronic pain, and decreased range of motion.

Active Release Techniques is a patented soft-tissue treatment modality recognized around the world for fast and effective results. ART providers use movement and palpation to assess tissue texture and tension to target problem areas. ART is a movement-based treatment technique that utilizes specific tension applied to a tissue as it is lengthened through a full range of motion. This helps release soft tissue adhesions and fibrosis to restore motion and improve tissue health. It is commonly used to treat muscle, tendon and ligament injuries as well as nerve entrapments.
Paul takes a corrective approach to treatment and uses muscle, range of motion and orthopedic testing to assess the root cause of pain and injuries. He uses a variety of techniques including ART and joint mobilizations to treat the symptom areas as well as the underlying factors that created the problem. He helps clients become stronger, perform better and become more resilient against future injuries.

Deep tissue massage is similar to recovery massage but is more focused on deeper, specific tissue work. It’s recommended for those who need a deeper, stronger massage for tight muscles, chronic pain, or injuries.
During deep tissue massage, your therapist concentrates on deep muscles and connective tissue. Your therapist may use muscle kneading, slow strokes, and targeted pressure as part of this massage.

Myofascial cupping can be booked on its own as a full-body treatment or to complement any other type of massage. During the treatment, your massage therapist will use plastic or glass cups to create suction on the skin. The suction gently pulls underlying tissues, blood, and other fluids to the surface, away from your muscles.
Through this treatment, the suction works to increase circulation, breakdown tissue blockages, and actively stretch muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Myofascial cupping can help increase range of motion and treat pain.
Myofascial cupping is not recommended for individuals with connective tissue disorders, fractures, or certain types of cancer. Alert your therapist if you have a hernia, deep vein thrombosis, skin damage, or open wounds, as myofascial cupping cannot be done on these areas.

Trigger point therapy is a specific technique that is used to alleviate pain through isolated pressure and release. Treatment is generally performed with the therapist’s thumbs or specific trigger pointing tools. This treatment applies direct pressure onto trigger points which breaks the cycle of pain which has built up and kept a muscle area contracted.
RAPID Neurofascial Reset is a movement based therapeutic technique that addresses the nervous system’s role in alleviating pain, tension, and restrictions in muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia.
The purpose of RAPID NFR is to desensitize nerve hypersensitivity and bring the body back to “normal”. It targets pain and restrictions in the body with a treatment goal of improving range of motion, resolving pain and reducing inflammation. This enables the therapist to affect the central nervous system which reduces tissue tension, increases blood flow to promote healing and decreases inflammation. All while reducing the nervous system sensitivity which reduces pain.
RAPID Neurofascial Reset has the potential to successfully treat many painful musculoskeletal conditions such as:
Sciatica, Plantar Fasciitis, Shin Splints, Bursitis, Frozen Shoulder, Baker’s Cysts, Back Pain, Headaches / Migranes, TMJ – D, Vertigo / Tinnitus, Arthritis, Knee Pain, Golfers / Tennis Elbow and many more!
Graston Technique is the use of specialized steel instruments used with a variety of techniques for the treatment of scar tissue and fascial restrictions. Graston Technique is very quick and effective at treating acute, chronic and post-surgical tissue adhesions that cause pain, reduce range of motion and inhibit normal functioning.
The use of Graston tools allows the therapist to target the fascia in a much more effective and targeted way than just manual therapy. Because Graston Technique is a deeper therapy it takes less time to treat problems. Patients will likely experience red flushing to the surface as blood flow that was restricted returns to the area.
Graston Technique therapy is suitable to treat all soft tissue conditions allowing patients to recover from conditions that have caused them pain for years, sometimes even decades.
Lymphatic drainage massage is a specialized therapeutic technique designed to promote the efficient functioning of the lymphatic system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the body’s immune system, fluid balance, and overall well-being. This gentle and rhythmic form of massage is performed by trained therapists and is characterized by its light pressure and specific hand movements.
Reiki is a hands on Japanese healing art.

You do not need a doctor’s referral to get massage therapy. That said, some insurance companies require a doctor’s referral to cover massage therapy appointments. Review your policy or contact your insurance provider for details.
