New Client/Initial Appointment Custom or Swedish Massage

Description

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. Using oil or lotion, the therapist will massage the client utilizing the 5 basic strokes of massage at an appropriate intensity that suits the client's comfort. Swedish massage has many benefits that contribute to the client's overall feeling of well-being. By increasing circulation and assisting with returning blood flow to the heart, massage helps to increase oxygen and nutrient uptake throughout the body while it also increases the body's efficiency to eliminate waste and toxins. Because massage includes stretching of fascia, range of motion can be improved which can help relieve painful muscles and joints and reduce stress throughout the body. Your customized massage will begin with approximately, a 5 to 15 minute discussion of your health history, current concerns and assessment, based on what your goals are, we will determine our strategy. A combination of techniques may by applied, such as: Trigger Point Release(Tp), Myofascial Therapies(MFT), Deep Tissue, Swedish, and Acupressure. Some other modalities, such as aromatherapy, cryotherapy and hot packs may also be incorporated into your session in order to achieve the most effective therapeutic session possible for you. *Please Note: Most forms of massage are performed on a linen covered table with the client disrobed to their level of comfort. For the client's safety and security, only the area that is to be worked is undraped; using oil or lotion the therapist will massage the client at an appropriate intensity that suits the client's comfort.
