SWEDISH
MASSAGE
Swedish Massage refers
to a collection of techniques designed primarily to relax muscles.
Swedish Massage is also used to increase circulation, remove
metabolic waste products, help the recipient obtain a feeling
of connectedness, and a better awareness of their body. Swedish
Massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing
the tissue of lactic and uric acids and other metabolic wastes.
It improves circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches
the ligaments and tendons by keeping them supple.
Swedish Massage stimulates the skin
and nervous system while relaxing the nerves. As it can help
reduce emotional and physical stress, it is often recommended
as part of a regular program for stress management.
(FYI: Swedish is a proper name. It
is not a reference to the country Sweden.)

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
CranioSacral Therapy
is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and treating
the body through the CranioSacral system. The CranioSacral
system is made up of membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that
surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
A licensed healthcare practitioner
performs therapy on the fully clothed body. The practitioner
uses a soft touch to release restrictions in the CranioSacral
system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.
CranioSacral
Therapy complements the body's natural healing process,
whether compromised through illness, injury, or dysfunction.
It is increasingly used as a preventative health measure as
well for its ability to bolster resistance to disease. CranioSacral
therapy is effective for a wide range of medical problems
including:
- Chronic neck and back pain
- Stress and tension-related problems
- Fibromyalgia and other connective-tissue
disorders
- Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
- Post-surgical dysfunction

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
Deep Tissue
Massage is used to release chronic muscle tension through
slower strokes and more direct pressure applied across the
grain of the muscles. It uses a combination of massage techniques
that get deeper into the tissue structure of muscle and fascia.
Techniques employing breath and movement are also used for
releasing muscular congestion.

REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology
works on the premise that the body is reflected in the hands,
feet and ears. Practitioners manipulate specific points in order
to move energy more efficiently through the body. This increases
the health and well-being of these specific areas and of the
body as a whole. Reflexology is most often practiced on the
feet. In addition to addressing various internal ailments, reflexology
is also great for the feet themselves and terrific for stress
reduction and relaxation.
