Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger Point or Neuromuscular Therapy   is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing “trigger points” which are tender areas along myofascia tissue, which  radiate pain to other areas. When these points are treated significant relief results.  The techniques used in trigger point therapy are similar to those used in acupressure, but trigger point therapy is based on western anatomy and physiology. With this treatment session, a strengthening and stretching routine is used to regain strength balance and alignment.  This process may be of discomfort at times, yet the effects are lasting and profoundly transformative.  

Athletic Performance Massage

Sports Massage is an adaptation of Swedish massage.  Its purpose is to prepare athletes for sporting activity pre-event and post-event to help them warm up before and help them recover from the exertion after.  Engaging in sports can often lead to strains and sprains. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates.  Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete whether from an injury or from overexertion by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body’s natural immune function.

BodyReflex

was created by Lisa in the 1990's after positive lasting results. This system is patterned in conjunction with  Swedish strokes, tigger point, neuromuscular and myofascial release techniques.  Gentle light and deep flowing strokes are used with holding, friction, stretching techniques using origin and insertion of muscles: searching occluded fibrotic tissue, enhancing blood circulation, forcing irritants from sensitized nerve receptors, with light sacrum rocking to relieve and release tense holding patterns within the body.

Geriatric Massage

Geriatric Massage is a form of massage designed to meet the specific needs of the elderly.

This is a CLOTHES ON Therapy Session.  

It helps to improve blood circulation, may relieve pain, and also increase range of motion. If you are elderly, geriatric massage can help you maintain and improve your overall health, as well as regain certain physical functions that have been reduced due to aging. In addition, since the elderly don't typically receive enough physical touch, this massage can also help alleviate symptoms of loneliness or depression.

MyoSkeletal

MyoNeuroSkeletal  is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of muscle tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Alignment is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries.  Due to the nature of this tissue work, open communication during the session is necessary. 

OrthoMedical Massage

 Rx Perscription Massage differs from regular Massage and Bodywork in that the treatment is specifically directed to resolve conditions diagnosed by a medical doctor.  I may use a variety of modalities or techniques during the treatment, but I focus the treatment only on the specific areas of the body related to the diagnosis.  This enhances the body’s natural self-healing process and reduces the needed recovery time from injury.

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese energy process for restoring and balancing life energy and promoting healing and personal transformation.  The practice involves a systematic process using a gentle laying of hands attuning and transmitting Reiki energy.  As a result, the body’s natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum mental, emotional, and physical health.
