All massage therapists at
relax are skilled at Swedish and
relaxation massage techniques. Many of our therapists have continued their educations to specialize in one or more of the following areas.
- Swedish Massage– The “traditional massage” with an emphasis on enhancing circulation and relieving muscle tension. An oil or lotion is usually used with this type of massage. A full body Swedish massage can be very relaxing.
- Trigger Point, Myofascial, and Deep Tissue Massage– These techniques can be added to full body massage, or used on an isolated area to address deeper muscular pain associated with post-exercise soreness, “knots” or adhesions, and stiffness.
- Sports Massage – This style of massage uses a combination of Swedish, stretching, deep tissue and other techniques designed to enhance athletic performance. (cont'd)
