Soft Tissue Therapy

The soft tissue of our bodies include muscles, tendons, and ligaments. When one or more of these becomes out of balance our overall state of wellness can be affected. Chronic head aches, low back pain, reduced flexibility and so much more can often be treated with this form of therapy. Working down deeply layer by layer through the soft tissue you will feel your body begin the process of recovery. Sessions can either be limited to specific areas or target the known problem areas while also working on the related tissue from head to toe. Though minimal or no clothing is worn you will be covered with a sheet or towel to respect your modesty. Generally an unscented lotion is used to control the friction of working deep.

Sports Care

This is a subspecialty of massage therapy that focuses on techniques designed to enhance athletic performance. Each session or series of sessions are designed to meet your goals in getting the most out of your body whether it is Post-Event, Pre-Event, Training/Maintenance, or Injury Care. Techniques used will depend on the goals of the session. Often these involve compression and deep cross fiber friction therapies. Wearing a pair of gym shorts during these sessions is recommended to allow a greater range of stretching and also to ensure your comfort.
