Investing in bodywork is an investment in your health, comfort, capacity, performance, longevity, and overall stress level! 

 

Active Release Techniques (ART) 

• Approximately 25 minutes - $50.00
• ART is:
  • For relief of tension and pain, both muscular and neural, and for increasing range of motion of muscles, joints and capsules.
  • ART is much like getting 'chiropractic adjustments' but for muscles and connective tissues. This technique is quick, muscle and region specific, and meant for immediate results.
  • ART is a more active rather than passive treatment, involving movement by the client (assisted if needed) as well as the therapist. You will feel more relaxed when you are done, but this is not usually a session of lying passively on the table throughout.
• Please Bring:
  • Due to the variety of movements and positions, ART sessions are usually partially or totally clothed.Please bring loose or stretchy shorts for lower body work.  Women please wear a sports bra or other bra you feel comfortable in, and a baggy t-shirt if desired, for upper body work.
• First Time?
  • ART involves proper assessment to be successful. If you are a first-time client with complex problems involving more than one joint or area of the body, please book a 50 or 80 minute appointment to give adequate time for thorough evaluation and proper treatment.

 

Relaxing or Therapeutic Massage short session

• Approximately 25 minutes - $50.00
• Your choice of a quick session of needed relaxation, or a deeper, tension-releasing, therapeutic massage for a chosen body region.
• You get to relax on a soft, warm table while your therapist does all the work!

• Relaxing

Warm, gentle and rhythmic movements star in this calming, relaxing total body massage for stress and tension relief, increased blood and lymphatic circulation, and pure bliss. With a longer session, clients say they are so relaxed they practically ooze off the table. Each massage is tailored for your body's individual needs, and can be whatever depth of pressure you desire. Includes beautiful, scented aromatherapy oils and weighted nurturing heat if you like.

• Therapeutic 

Therapeutic manual therapy and/or longer ART session (please bring loose or stretchy shorts for lower body work, sports/comfortable bra for women's upper body work). Longer sessions are useful for addressing complex, multi-area problems, or simply to have an extra half an hour to mix in relaxing massage with the more "intense" stuff. Can include active, upright seated positions and table work, deep tissue and joint work, orthopedic/medical massage or structural work for relief from injuries, chronic pain, range of motion problems, posture problems or stress-related tension, over-use issues and nerve entrapment issues (like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, etc) .

• Sports massage 

Sports massage for athletes (both full-time and weekend warriors) wanting support in optimization, training, relief from muscle fatigue, pain or overuse, pre or post-event work, range-of-motion and flexibility, injury prevention, muscle and joint stability, stress relief, and strains or injuries including repeated ankle strains, tennis/golfers elbow, shin splints, psoas/lumbar problems, pain with rotation or grip, rotator cuff problems, groin strains, hamstring pulls, headaches and neck tension, and almost everything in between. Longer sessions are useful for addressing complex, multi-area problems, or simply to have an extra half an hour to mix in relaxing massage with the more "intense" stuff.
