Treatments
Myofacial Release/Sports Massage
Deep Tissue Massage reaches deeper layers of muscles. It doesn't necessarily mean super deep and painful, it's just a much slower, more focussed type of work on particular areas that might need some extra warmth and deep movement to really help your body get the hint. This massage is beneficial for athletes, and those who sit for long periods of time.
Swedish Massage/Deep Tissue
The goal of Swedish Massage is to melt away muscle tension and increase the blood flow to your heart. Swedish Massage is extremely therapeutic as it relaxes the whole body, refreshes the mind, and can even help with injury prevention and headaches.
Slightly more spicy Treatments
Dynamic Cupping
Cupping is often paired with Swedish Massage.
in it's modern modality, this will use infrared heat and a breathing vacuum to warm, and massage your muscles. This increases hyperemia (blood flow;the red marks) which allows your body to relax and release tension and stress, recovering pain areas quicker. Especially good for DOMS and those aggressive golf ball knots.
IASTM
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization was an ancient roman technique to help recover athletes from pain and fevers.
Modern evidence based IASTM is born in the 1980s, combining Chinese Gua Sha and friction massage to reduce adhesions around scar tissue, increase mobility and invoke local hyperemia (blood flow).
Using up to 6 stainless steel tools for sweeping, stretching, and holding trigger points.
Great for longevity in sports, increased recovery, pain relief and range of motion. Perfect for myofascial restrictions, tendon issues, sprains and strains, plantar fasciatis, IT band tighness, neck, and back pain.
