Swedish

60 min - $90

Swedish massage is a deeply relaxing experience incorporating long gliding strokes, gentle kneading, and passive stretching. This modality stimulates lymph flow and circulation, while relieving stress and promoting restful sleep.

Deep Tissue

60 min - $100

90min - $130

Deep tissue massage, as the name implies, works deep into the layers of muscle to release chronic holding. Working in layers, this massage begins with warming techniques similar to Swedish, then moves deeper using angle and depth. This work is slow and intentional — targeting contracted tissue and areas of tension to facilitate release and decrease pain.

Energy Work

30 - $60

Energy work is sometimes described as electric and stimulating and sometimes quiet and rhythmic — each individual experiences this work differently. Energy work is a meditation, a channelling, an acknowledgement, and a holding. Techniques used in this session may feel like light pressure of a finger holding a single point, broad pressure of a hand over an energetic pathway, gentle cradling with both hands on opposite sides of the body, or the hovering of a hand over the body without touching. Internally this work can bring up heat or cold, it might feel electric or static, or it may bring up emotions or thoughts. This work is more intuitive than scientific, and it’s not for everyone. Using visualization, symbolic words, a sense of accepting openness, and a space for holding and acknowledgement, this work channels energy through the practitioner. Inviting energetic healing often catalyzes physical healing.

Shiatsu

60 min - $90

Shiatsu is a modality rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and works with the energy pathways, or Meridians, of the body. Described as both deeply relaxing and invigorating, this modality is about restoring balance. Shiatsu is done fully clothed and traditionally on a mat on the floor, but can also be performed on the table. Using compression, passive range of motion, acupressure, and stretching, Shiatsu will promote lymph flow and circulation, decrease pain and tension, and balance excess and depleted energy in your body.

Myofascial Release Therapy

75 min - $130

Myofascial Release Therapy (MFT) is assessment based and anatomically specific work. This modality can facilitate postural realignment, address range of motion issues, and target areas of chronic pain and tension. MFT can be be done clothed or unclothed (while covered by a clean linen), and does not use oil or lotion. This work uses unique warming techniques and specialized deep tissue strokes that break up adhesions, realign muscle fibers, and release superficial fascia. Sessions may include a tense-and-relax stretching technique known as Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation. MFT is highly result yielding therapeutic massage.
