European (Swedish) MassageEuropean Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion. This technique has been proven to reduce heart rate and blood pressure, improve blood circulation and lymph flow and increase endorphin production - the body's own natural painkiller. It is also beneficial in pre and post sports events, stress reduction, relieving sports injuries, improving joint movement, soothing muscle aches, pain, stiffness, and reducing muscle spasms. Work can be deep or more superficial. I take pride in tailoring your session to meet your specific needs.

AMMA MassageAmma, the oldest Chinese word to describe massage, is part of an ancient healing system dating back approximately 5,000 years. Like acupuncture, Amma is rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This is a specialized form of massage therapy that combines deep tissue manipulation with the application of pressure, friction and touch to specific points and the channels on which they are found. With the focus on the balance and movement of energy, or "Qi" (pronounced "Chee"), within the body, techniques aim to remove blockages and free the flow of Qi, thereby restoring, promoting and maintaining optimum health.
