Prenatal Massage

Your muscles will certainly appreciate a massage when they've been carrying around an extra load. Plus, the weight of your growing baby can cause leg muscles to tense and swell. This inflames nearby nerves and can lead to sciatic nerve pain. Applying mild pressure to your muscle groups helps reduce swelling by stimulating blood flow throughout your body.

Couple Massage

Studies have shown that massages stimulate the release of many hormones which boost feelings of intimacy and affection. Most notably, touch increases oxytocin (which is known to play a role in social bonding, sexual reproduction, childbirth, and the period after childbirth), as well as serotonin and dopamine.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is the most common and best known type of massage in the West. If it's your first time or you don't get massage often, Swedish massage is the best place to start. The Swedish body massage is the combination of many different techniques rolled into one session. During this therapy session the therapist will work with the soft tissues and muscles in the body to help restore balance and health.

The end result will relax all of the muscles in your body and help relieve any pain or tension that may exist.
A Swedish body massage is the perfect way for anyone who is overworked and stressed out to relax their body and mind. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish therapy can be both relaxing and energizing. It may even help after an injury.

Hot Stone Massage

During a hot stone massage, the techniques of a regular massage are applied. However, the therapist also works with hot stones that are placed on specific parts of the body.

The stones are smooth and flat and usually made of the volcanic rock type called basalt. These particular stones are chosen because they retain heat.

The stones used for a hot stone massage are placed in hot water to warm up before being applied. They are then placed onto specific areas of the body.

Some massage therapists hold the stones in their hands and use them to massage with. This allows the therapist to get deeper into the muscles without more pressure, helping their client to relax yet further.

This type of hot stone therapeutic treatment is thought to have originated in China almost 2,000 years ago. Since then, the technique of using stones for healing has been used in many different cultures, including the Americas, Africa, Egypt, and India.

Neck & Shoulder Massage

Neck and shoulder pain has become more of a problem in the last decade. Most people experience it while working, driving, exercising, or laying in bed. It can appear gradually through the build-up of tension in the soft tissues or as result of an injury, such as post-accident whiplash, or a muscle pull during your gym workout. Neck and shoulder massage is one of the most effective tools to alleviate the pain.

Neck and shoulder pain can often be associated with headaches, reduced range of movement, a “crunching” or "grinding" sensation when turning your head, and referred pain down your arms. A neck and shoulder massage can help eliminate these symptoms, bringing you release, relaxation, and optimal freedom of movement.

Prenatal Massage

Anyone who's ever had a professional massage knows that both body and mind feel better afterwards — and the same goes for prenatal massage, which can feel extra wonderful when extra weight and changes in posture stir up new aches and pains.

Benefits of a Couple Massage:

Bonding

When you get a great massage, your body releases oxytocin, the “love hormone” that creates a sense of affection and love. When you get a couple massage, that means love is literally in the air (and also flowing through the bloodstream). Increased affection is one of the biggest benefits of a couple massage.

Health

Maybe you want to celebrate an anniversary or a birthday, but don’t want to indulge in a birthday cake or a few glasses of champagne. Why not choose a couple massage? Massage is good for you! Why not enjoy and celebrate your special day without wrecking your diet or getting hung over? A couple massage is a perfect evening for two and also makes a terrific present as well.

Peace

A couple massage makes your day or evening that much more relaxing. No need to argue over who gets a massage first. Each person can decide what type of massage they want and both therapists will coordinate so both finish at the same time. All you need to do is lay comfortably while two licensed massage therapists knead your stresses away.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when most people think about massage. As the best-known type of bodywork performed today, one of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart.
In addition to feeling great, Swedish massage therapy goes beyond relaxation. Swedish massage is exceptionally beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, flushing muscle toxins, increasing circulation, improving flexibility, and easing tension.
