Sports Massage
Sports Massage focuses on an athlete’s performance and/or previous sports injuries, concentrating on the muscle groups utilized most during sports exercise. Pre- and post-event massages available.

Structural Integration
Various techniques are used to release myofascia, gently realign the skeletal system, and manipulate the surrounding soft tissue. The goal is to bring the whole body back into its natural state of balance and alignment.

Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy creates significant physiological, structural, psychological, relational, and spiritual changes in a woman’s life. Massage therapy, bodywork, and other somatic practices are particularly effective forms of adjunctive healthcare during this time, offering a wide range of benefits to the expectant mother and her baby.

Hot Stone Massage
Smooth volcanic river stones are heated, oiled and placed on tired, sore muscles in order to soothe the body, quiet the mind and revitalize the spirit. Hot and cold stones assist the body in releasing stored tension and toxins.

Massage can purify a person’s body, mind and soul. It revitalizes our most precious resources for physical, mental and spiritual health.
