Massage therapy is a safe and effective way to support and heal the soft tissues of the body. By encouraging the flow of blood and lymph throughout the body, massage brings oxygen into the cells and surrounding tissues. This can heal injuries, relieve sore muscles and decrease muscle fatigue. Massage works to calm the nervous system and decrease stress. Swedish style massage tends to be lighter in touch with long flowing movements where as deep tissue style work is more pressure on specific trigger points and releasing the muscle fibers from a contracted state.
The therapist will customize your massage to include deep tissue work as well as Swedish style depending on your needs and preferred pressure.
