Swedish Massage (Back to Top)
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.
Deep Tissue Massage (Back to Top)
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don’t get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Sports Massage (Back to Top)
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce joint pain and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body’s natural immune function.
Reflexology (Back to Top)
Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into the feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.
CranioSacral Therapy (Back to Top)
CranioSacral Therapy is a bodywork method that focuses on gently stimulating your CranioSacral system (membranes and fluid that surround the brain and spinal cord) to heal the body by improving the functioning of the central nervous system. CST effectively complements your body’s natural healing process, and has been known to help alleviate a wide variety of problems including:
- Central Nervous System Disorders
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
- TMJ
- Fibromyalgia
- Headaches
Trigger Point Therapy (Back to Top)
Trigger Point Therapy is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing “trigger points” in your body. Trigger points are tender areas of tension similar to acupressure points, except they occur in the belly of the muscle tissue rather than along the energy pathways of the body. These ‘knots’ are built up throughout a person’s life due to physical, mental, and/or emotional stress. During a session, focused pressure is applied through a variety of techniques in order to release your trigger points. This process can be quite painful at times, yet the effects are lasting and profoundly transformative.
Stone Therapy (Back to Top)
Stone Therapy is a type of bodywork that uses deep penetrating heat and/or alternating cold from specialized stones. The physiological benefits of alternating hot and cold to the body have long been scientifically and medically proven.
Stone Therapy delivers a profound expansion and contraction inside your circulatory system, improving the function of your lymphatic and immune systems, and enhancing your body’s self-healing mechanisms. This style of bodywork takes you into deep states of relaxation, releasing stress and anxiety, detoxifying the body, and balancing your nervous system.
Lymphatic Drainage (Back to Top)
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy aims to gently and rhythmically move the lymph through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system. As both a preventative and remedial technique, MLD can be used for a wide range of purposes including faster recovery from injury, reduction of swelling and discomfort from pregnancy, and strengthened resistance to illness.
Herbal Remedies (Back to Top)
Herbal Remedies are the therapeutic use of plants, and they are one of the oldest forms of health care in the world. Different herbs have been effectively used for a wide range of medicinal purposes including pain relief, hormone balancing, sleep enhancement, improved digestion, skin soothing, antibacterial and stress relief.
Lypossage (Back to Top)
Lypossage is a non-invasive alternative to lyposuction. In a series of sessions, using patented formula creams which are applied to problem areas and worked in using a rolling massage technique, cellulite and fatty deposits are broken down and toxins are released. Results are smooth skin and lost inches. You will notice the difference after the first session.
An introduction to the technique is available by ordering a 45 minute "Lyposauna", which is a combination of Lypossage and our Far Infrared Sauna, which helps sweat out the toxins released during the massage.

Far Infrared Sauna (Back to Top)
Radiant heat relaxes muscles, relieves chronic pain, eases joint stiffness, improves the immune system, removes toxins and heavy metals, enhances skin tone and burns calories by increasing your metabolic rate and circulation. Good for pain relief from arthritis, fibromyalgia, bursitis, or injury.
Nature's Mud Wrap (Back to Top)
A combination of algae, essential oils and herbal extracts to nourish the skin. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Sea Salt Body Glow (Back to Top)
Fine sea salt and jojoba oil with a blend of Lavender and Juniper Berry will exfoliate your outer layer of dead cells and rejuvenate new healthy cells.
Massage Cupping (Back to Top)
An ancient technique used in traditional Chinese Medicine, Massage Cupping is used to drain excess fluids and toxins, loosen adhesions and lift connective tissue, and bring blood flow to stagnant muscles and skin. Through suction and negative pressure, scar tissue softens, lymph drainage assists healing, and sedates the nervous system reducing blood pressure, anxiety, and neuralgia.
