Deep Tissue therapy is described differently by different therapists and schools.  I like to think of it as more focused on therapy and addressing issues such as adhesions, scar tissue and poor movement habits, all of which can cause pain.  A deep tissue massage does not have to be painful, although it is often intense.  Many different types of massage techniques are used to address issues such as these.  It has been my experience that different techniques work on different people on different days.  I have lots of tricks up my sleeve and the ability to work with you to find a level of massage which helps alleviate those issues causing you pain.

Traditional Thai Massage is believed to have originated from Shivago Komarpaj (Jivaka Kumarabhacca), who was a contemporary and physician of the Buddha.  Conducted in comfortable, stretchy clothes on a padded mat, Thai massage contains a deeply spiritual component of Metta (loving-kindness), inducing peaceful relaxation.  You will also experience physically transformative massage which includes compression, assisted-passive stretching in Yoga-like positions and thumbing along Sen (energy) lines to bring your energy into balance.

Available in 90 and 120 minute sessions.

Yes, pregnant women may receive massage in all trimesters, as long as the pregnancy is going smoothly.  I have the experience required to give a Swedish, Deep Tissue, or Thai massage to alleviate the unique tensions that occur to our bodies during pregnancy.  Are you pregnant?  I have a body cushion that has cut-outs which can allow you to lie face down or side-lying; whichever is more comfortable for you, depending on the progression of your pregnancy.  

Incorporating hot stones into your massage is an incredibly relaxing way to enjoy geo-thermal heat without a long drive to the hot springs.  The radiant heat of the stones penetrates deeply into your muscles and joints.  A truly transformative experience!  I use the stones in 3 ways, placing them on your body, having you lie on them, and massaging them very slowly and holding them at places of tension. 

Aromatherapy included in this treatment.              75 minute session
