Massage Techniques

SOME BASICS TO ASSIST YOU COMMUNICATING YOUR WANTS AND NEEDS WITH THE THERAPIST

MYOFASCIAL CUPPING MASSAGE

Release deep tension and restore movement with our Myofascial Cupping Massage. This treatment uses specialized cups to gently lift and separate the layers of fascia and muscle, helping to improve circulation, reduce tightness, and enhance overall mobility.

Unlike traditional massage that applies pressure downward into the tissue, cupping works by creating a decompressive effect—lifting the tissue to encourage blood flow, break up adhesions, and support the body’s natural healing process. Combined with therapeutic massage techniques, this approach allows for a more effective release of stubborn areas of tension and restriction.

This treatment is ideal for chronic tightness, muscle fatigue, and areas that feel “stuck” or limited in movement. You may notice temporary circular marks following treatment—this is a normal response and typically fades within a few days.

SPORTS MASSAGE

We will turn your down time into recovery and improvement time, quickly. Sports massage is used to boost performance to aid athletes in training, both before and after a competition. Pre-event treatment is designed to help athletes prevent injury, increase performance, and increase endurance. Post-event massage relieves pain, prevents stiffness, and decreases recovery time. Peak performance is easily acheived when attention is paid to your body. Help your body to function optimally by removing your body's restrictions.

RAPID MASSAGE

(Releases, Activation, and Perfusion Integrated Dynamics) is a specialized hands-on massage therapy technique designed to target deep layers of tissue, particularly the periosteum - the layer surrounding bones rich in sensory nerve endings. By accessing this neurobiological system, RAPID stimulates both the central and autonomic nervous systems, reducing tissue tension, increasing blood flow, and promoting deep healing. This innovative approach is highly effective in addressing complex musculoskeletal issues such as sciatica, migraines, and arthritis, offering clients a path to lasting relief and improved wellness.
