Swedish Massage
Relaxing massage incorporating five different strokes and
kneading techniques on the soft tissues of the body (muscles, tendons,
ligaments). The strokes move blood and lymph fluid in the direction of
the heart. Swedish massage increases
local circulation, improves muscle and skin tone and decreases muscle
tension.
Hot Stone Massage
Intended to be extremely relaxing, a
heated stone massage involves the placement of sanitized, warmed, smooth
rocks upon
different parts of the body. Typically, the treatment is done in
conjunction with traditional massage techniques, such as Swedish
massage, and the stones may be used with applied pressure by the massage
therapist during the treatment. Often, stones also are placed--and left
for a period of time--on certain body parts such as the spine, hands or
belly, and replaced once they cool. Cool stones may also be used to
address muscle injury.
Sport Massage
Sports massage is a systematic manipulation of the soft tissues of the
body that focuses on muscles relevant to a particular sport.Sports massage is reported to have many beneficial effects in athletes.
Sports massage can be used pre-performance, post-performance, during
training or for rehabilitation. Athletes of all levels may benefit from
sports massage. If you are looking for a way to improve your athletic
performance, then sports massage may be for you.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is similar to Swedish massage, but the deeper
pressure is used to release chronic muscle tension The focus on the
deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia (the protective
layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints).
A study in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
found that people's blood pressure fell after a single 45 to 60
minute deep tissue massage. Additionally, a 2010 meta-analysis in
the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry found that massage modalities
like deep tissue reduce stress hormone levels and heart rate while
boosting mood and relaxation by triggering the release of oxytocin
and serotonin.
Paraffin Hand Wax and Massage
Paraffin therapy is one of the most
effective methods of applying deep heat to relieve pain and stiffness.One of the overlooked benefits of paraffin therapy is that it soothes
and moisturizes the skin, opens pores, increases circulation, and
promotes a sense of calm in the client.
