Treatment Room Massage
Each session is a personalized table massage in the comfort of my treatment room. The room is set up for a most relaxing and therapeutic experience. This table massage can be done over your clothes or, more commonly, on bare skin while draped. This is a great option for relaxation, medical therapeutic techniques and overall health. My all-inclusive sessions may include static cupping, glide cupping, fascia release techniques, and a combination of medical and relaxation myofascial techniques. All therapies are used as needed, consulted and requested by you.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping is a suction therapy that helps to break up scar tissue, create space to increase circulation and move inflammation out of the area, works to release fascial restrictions and helps to restore the area to it's relaxed state. It can be a wonderful therapeutic technique to your customized massage. Although the pressure is controlled, it does have the potential of leaving temporary marks on the body. I am PESI certified in cupping and am happy to answer any questions you may have about it.
Fascia Release Techniques
Fascia is the body's scaffolding, holding everything in place. Fascia is what creates the adhesions (knots) in the body. The fascia release techniques I use consist of slow-holding fascia release (Barnes Method), to rapid movement techniques used with blunt fascia instruments.
