Therapeutic Deep Tissue Massage

This massage targets stubborn knots and very tight muscles. Your body will be warmed with hot stones while the therapist uses the requested amount of pressure to release the tension. This is great for those who have physical jobs and lifestyles, as well as those whose bodies hold a lot of stress. The body will have more range of motion as the muscle tension is relieved. We advise every massage client to drink extra water before and after the massage. A 60-minute therapeutic deep tissue massage is $70.00 and a 90-minute massage is $105.00.

Swedish Massage

For those who prefer a lighter touch, this soothing and relaxing massage incorporates a longer, lighter stroke which does not penetrate deep into the muscle tissue. This helps relieve tension, induce relaxation, and increase circulation. A Swedish Massage that lasts 30-minutes is $40.00, 60-minutes is $65.00, and a 90-minute massage is $95.00.

Pregnancy Massage

Being an expectant mother can bring on so many aches and pains. This massage treatment helps to ease your stressed and sore muscles. It also reduces leg cramps and swollen ankles, while soothing your baby with soft music and calm surroundings. For mothers in their second and third trimester, we do require a doctor's note before the massage begins. Pamper yourself with a 60-minute massage for $65.00.

Cupping Treatment

Cupping is a Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment in which special cups are used to create suction on the skin. It is believed to mobilize blood flow in order to promote healing. Cupping treatment helps relieve respiratory conditions, arthritis, gastric disorders, and muscle pain. A 30-minute cupping session is available for $40.00, or it can be added to any massage for $15.00.

Rolfing Structural Integration

Each Rolfing session is 90 minutes of systematic hands-on manipulation of the body's fascia, typically done in a series of sessions as a whole body intervention toward improving posture, restoring movement and reducing chronic pain. $130 per session.
