## Swedish Relaxation Massage

A classical form of European massage that involves the use of hands, forearms and elbows to manipulate the superficial layers of the muscles. Active or passive movement of the joints may also be incorporated into the massage. The benefits of Swedish massage include increased blood circulation, mental and physical relaxation, improved range of motion, and decreased stress and muscle tension. Natural oils are used - with no chemicals - to ensure the utmost relaxation.

## Therapeutic Massage (Deep Tissue & Myofascial Release)

Therapeutic massage involves a combination of techniques, including deep tissue massage and myofacial release, to treat specific conditions on a case-by-case basis. These techniques can help with physical discomforts as well as psychological states of mind, such as depression and anxiety. Massage can provide relief from acute and chronic pain. Various conditions that massage can help with but not limited to include:

- Postural realignment
- Headaches
- Pinched nerves
- Upper and lower back pain
- Hip discomfort / Knee pain
- Neck injuries (whiplash or torticollis)
- Muscle strains or spasms
- Carpal tunnel (wrist pain)
- Sprained ankles
- Sports Injuries and workout stiffness
- Reducing Knots in various places around the body
- Reducing restricted movements
- Increasing blood and lymphatic circulation

Pain relief and rehabilitation is not always limited to the massage treatment alone. Rehabilitation exercises are critical to your success. Specific exercises will be provided on an ongoing basis to tailor to your body as it changes throughout the course of treatment. We are hopeful that we can attain your goals if we work together as a team!

## Remedial Exercises

Remedial exercises are designed to address postural imbalances within the body. It's important to counterbalance your personal program with both strength and stretching exercises. Over time, daily targeted exercises can help your body return to a balanced state. Exercises are given to suit the needs of the individual. Body structure, fitness level and lifestyle are all taken into account. Treating the body as a whole and teaching body awareness is a focus that will be maintained.

## Traditional Northern Thai Massage (AKA Thai Yoga Massage)

Thai classical massage has a deeply soothing effect due to its emphasis on stretching while simultaneously working energetic lines throughout the body. The roots of Thai massage originate in the science of the Ayurvedic medicine system, which is one of the oldest medical systems in the world. In Thailand, Thai massage is used as preventative health care and is widely accessible to local populations. Thai massage is also known as lazy yoga because the practitioner puts the receiver into yoga like positions throughout the massage. You, the recipient of Thai massage, should wear loose comfortable clothing that will provide access to flexibility in all parts of the body. You will relax on top of a thick blanket on a firm floor. No need to do much, just lie down and try to relax. Performing your own breathing exercises throughout the massage can help to connect much more deeply with the shifts occurring in your body. A full Thai massage session typically lasts 90 minutes. This includes rhythmic pressing and stretching of the entire body; this may include pulling fingers, toes, ears etc., cracking the knuckles, arching the recipient's back in a rolling action etc. There is a standard procedure and rhythm to the massage. Please note that oil is not used in traditional Thai Massage.
