 For
the ultimate in tension taming, nothing is better than a relaxing massage. Well,
nothing, except a massage customized to your individual needs.
Available
at spas throughout the nation, there's a massage specialty to suit every ache,
pain and point of stress.
Swedish Massage
Candidates: Have Tension and stress concentrated in their upper to lower
back, Enjoy a medium to firm pressure massage.
Description: Characterized by its long, sweeping motions and gentle to firm pressure, the Swedish
Massage is, undoubtedly the most popular of all massage techniques. This massage
is perfect for the massage neophyte who may be a little apprehensive about the
treatment. Traditionally, this massage is customized to focus on the client's
main areas of concern in their back and upper body.
Full
Body Massage Candidates: Wish to work out tension not only in their back
and upper body, but lower body as well.
Description: A continuation
of the Swedish Massage, this technique covers the whole body rather than just
the back and upper body. Traditionally, firmer pressure is applied, but can be
customized to the client's preference.
Hot
Stone Candidates: Can endure a more intense massage; respond well to heat
therapy on aching muscles and concentrated tension.
Description: A "step up" from the standard Swedish Massage and technique, the Hot Stone
technique employs, you guessed it, heated natural, smooth stones, to ease tension
through massage. Throughout this massage, clients can expect medium pressure from
firm stones accompanied by the lasting warmth of the stones. Whether the stones
are strategically place to let the heat soothe aching areas r they are used in
conjunction with massage oil to knead out stress, this massage is for the spa
aficionado looking to expand their massage experience.
Reflexology
Candidates: Have significant muscle pain or rage of motion difficulties.
Description: This unconventional form of massage is based around
applying g pressure to the underside of the feet, which correspond to different
points throughout the body. Massage Therapists certified in Reflexology can identify
a pressure point located on the bottom of a client's feet to address their concerns.
Lymphatic Drainage Candidates: Want
to promote a healthy lymphatic system, circulatory system, respiratory system,
muscular system and endocrine system.
Description:This type
of massage therapy offers a holistic approach to wellness by using a specified
technique to improve the body's lymphatic system. The lymphatic system's function
is to move toxins away from healthy cells in the body. The massage is focused
on the lymph nodes and the therapy is believed to relieve allergies, menstrual
cramps, colds and viruses as well.
Pregnancy
Candidates: Are in their second or third trimesters of pregnancy and are
experiencing low back pain, swelling, headaches or stress.
Description: Designed to ease the stress on a pregnant woman's aching body, pregnancy
or prenatal massage, can help reduce stress, swelling and pain in a woman's changing
body. Because pregnant women should not lay flat on their backs (as the weight
of the uterus constricts the vein that returns blood from the legs to the heart),
pregnancy massages are often performed on a special massage table to allow the
pregnant woman to lie face down, or are preformed while the woman lay on her side.
