Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is a system of massage techniques that were developed in the 1930's by Dr. Stanley Lief in England. It uses a holistic approach towards healing, emphasizing and stimulating the body's natural ability to heal itself. Neuromuscular therapy also enhances the function of joints and muscles, and accelerates the overall healing process by facilitating the release of endorphins.
Active Isolated Stretching
Developed by Aaron Mattes, Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) is a dynamic system for improving your flexibility and overall well-being. As you probably already know, stretching your muscles not only reduces your chance of injury, but also strengthens your tendons and improves your circulation.
Chair Massage
Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.
Chair massages are also available for company events such as employee appreciation day, healthcare awareness or retirement parties. If you would like to schedule an event the hourly rate would apply and if more than one therapist is needed arrangements can be made to accommodate your request. Call me to discuss the length of time you would like to have chair massages available and the number of therapist you will require.
Pre & Post Event Massage
I have been privileged to work some very special events over the years such as the Scottish Highland Games and the Davita Bike Tour. At these events table massages are provided for the athletes before and immediately after their participation. These massages provide relief from muscle spasms as well as improve circulation and flexibility and this, in turn, enables the athletes to perform at their best. If your organization is interested in having pre and post event massage provided for your athletes call to make arrangements.
