Massage Therapy, Tailored To You

Techniques That Can Be Incorporated​

Every massage is tailored to your goals, preferences, feedback, and how your body responds. When appropriate, techniques such as deep tissue massage, trigger point work, cupping therapy, and PNF stretching can be incorporated into your session at no additional charge. Trigger point work, cupping therapy, and PNF stretching are reserved for 90-minute or longer sessions to allow enough time for them to be incorporated effectively.

PNF

​Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is a form of assisted stretching that uses gentle muscle contraction and resistance to help improve flexibility and range of motion. Unlike passive stretching, PNF involves your active participation while I guide the muscle through a series of controlled movements. It can be especially useful for addressing persistent tightness and improving mobility in restricted areas.

Free on sessions 90 minutes or longer
Cupping Therapy

Cupping uses controlled suction to gently lift the skin and underlying tissues, creating a decompressive effect. Cups may be placed stationary or moved across the body to complement massage and myofascial techniques. Cupping can help reduce the sensation of muscular tension and improve soft-tissue mobility. Temporary circular discoloration can occur and is a normal response to cupping.

Free on sessions 90 minutes or longer

Trigger Point

Trigger point therapy focuses on specific areas of muscle tension that refer pain or sensation elsewhere in the body. Sustained pressure is applied to the trigger point, which can feel quite intense at first, and is held until the referred sensation has completely subsided. Because I cannot feel what you are feeling, communication is essential—you’ll be asked to tell me when you feel a referral, when it begins to decrease, and when it is completely gone.

​Free on sessions 90 minutes or longer
Deep Tissue

​Deep tissue massage uses slower, focused techniques and firmer pressure to work with deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Rather than simply applying more pressure, the approach is adjusted based on the area being addressed, your comfort, and how your body responds. Deep tissue techniques can be incorporated throughout your massage when appropriate to help address persistent muscle tension and restricted movement.

Included with sessions of any length
