Lymphatic Massage
Lymphatic drainage massage is a form of gentle massage that encourages the movement of lymph fluids around the body.

– Lymphedema
– Fibromyalgia
– Swelling or edema
– Skin disorders
– Fatigue
– Insomnia
– Stress
– Digestive problems
– Arthritis
– Migraine episodes
Integrative Massage
Integrative Massage is the application of specific treatment protocols targeting specific problem(s) each client presents with. Herbal healing is one of such treatment methods. Medicinal herbs and aromatherapy combined with massage, can benefit the physical and emotional body. The specific healing effects of different herbs can restore the body back to its balance giving the body its correct ingredients for restoration so that you can feel better naturally.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is best for giving attention to certain painful, stiff “trouble spots” in your body. The massage therapist uses slow, deliberate strokes that focus pressure on layers of muscles, tendons, or other tissues deep under your skin. Though less rhythmic than other types of massage, deep tissue massage may be therapeutic — relieving chronic patterns of tension and helping with muscle injuries, such as back sprain.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage uses smooth, heated stones to warm and relax muscles, allowing the massage therapist to apply deeper pressure to those areas without causing discomfort. Hot stone massage may provide benefits to people with conditions of prenatal depression, pain syndromes such as arthritis or fibromyalgia, hypertension, anxiety and depression.
