Some benefits of massage-

• alleviate acute, chronic and joint pain

• reduced stress by lowering cortisol, which can also improve sleep quality and duration

• increased sense of well being by raising dopamine and serotonin levels

• improved posture, flexibility, range of motion and overall muscle function 

• increased blood flow, bringing oxygen and nutrients to tissues

• speed up recovery after workouts or injuries by reducing inflammation and promoting tissue repair

What to expect?

Each session will be customized to your needs and preferences. I like to work slow, giving your nervous system time to settle so you can completely relax. Gentle stretching and range of motion movements help me find and loosen restrictions in your tissue. 

For targeted pain relief I often include heated packs and hot stones as aids to soften and melt the tension, and sometimes dynamic cupping to lift the fascia and bring blood flow to the area.

Aromatherapy and topical pain relief may also be included at no extra cost, and I love to spend a little extra time with cranial holds searching for balance and scalp massage to ease stress and tension.
