Massage Options
A combination of Swedish and Esalen techniques,
relaxation massage uses long strokes and firm pressure to relieve
stress on outer–layer muscles and joints.
Slow strokes and deep finger pressure relieve
chronic stress from deep within the body.
Utilizing acupressure points along the energetic
pathways of the body, Shiatsu brings the entire body back to balance,
harmonizing the mind, body and spirit. Shiatsu is received through
loose–fitting clothing. It does not use any type of oil, and
it is not a massage — it uses acupressure points.
This type of massage targets muscles used to perform
repetitive activity. Athletes in particular find it beneficial before
or after an event and to facilitate rehabilitation after an injury.
A light, gentle touch focusing on the bones of
the skull and face down to the sacrum (tail bone) can help alleviate
migraines, sinus.
