Table massage offers many different benefits. A few are listed below:
Increases parasympathetic response of the body (bringing your nervous system from a state of "fight or flight" (alerted) to a restful state (relaxed)
Assists in release of adhesions in the connective tissue and muscles
Reduced Carpal Tunnel Syndrome symptoms & pain
Reduction in Migraine Headache occurrences
We offer three different time durations
for Table Massage. 30 minutes, 60 minutes and 90 minutes.
During a typical massage session, you will start either face-up or face-down
(depending on the focus of the treatment) under a sheet.
The massage strokes begin with light to moderate pressure to warm up the
tissue. As the tissue warms and loosens, the strokes become deeper to allow
for breaking up of congealed fascia and to relax the muscle of any
involuntary contraction. If the face and/or scalp are receiving work, these
areas are worked without any lotion or oil on the hands. On the remainder of
the body, lotion, creme or oil is used.
The products that we use are high quality and will not leave you feeling
greasy. Some products may contain a light fragrance which is used for their
healing properties.
Each session concludes with gentle compression strokes to reconnect the body
and brushing strokes to gently help return you to a more present state.

Draping Technique / Dress Options
| Swedish Massage |
One of the most well-known
massage techniques, Swedish massage is a vigorous system of treatment
designed to energize the body by stimulating circulation. |
| Reiki |
The Reiki Practitioner lays
their hands over certain areas of the body to allow the Universal
healing energy to enter the body and to create balance. Sometimes the
hands are directly on your body, sometimes they are close, but not quite
in contact with your body. Reiki is performed while the client is fully clothed. When the body is in balance, the organs, hormones, nerves & all body functions can operate according to their purpose, and the body will heal. Reiki cannot cause any harm. It works for your highest good. |
| Swedish / Deep Tissue Massage |
This deep form of bodywork helps to release myofascial restrictions in
the body. It relieves chronic tension, increases range of motion, and
improves posture and enhances self-awareness. |
| Warm Stones Massage |
Warm stones of all shapes and sizes are used during Warm Stone massage therapy to elicit physical healing, mental relaxation and a spiritual connection to earth energy. Warm stones encourage the exchange of blood and lymph and provide soothing heat for deep-tissue work. Stones are placed in varying positions on the body for energy balancing or may be used by the therapist for specific trigger-point work. |
