Swedish Bodywork
Swedish bodywork is the most popular type of bodywork in the United States. It involves the use of hands, forearms or elbows to manipulate the superficial layers of the muscles to improve mental and physical health. Active or passive movement of the joints may also be part of the bodywork. The benefits of swedish bodywork include increased blood circulation, mental and physical relaxation, decreased stress and muscle tension, and improved range of motion.
Hot Stone Bodywork
Hot stone bodywork therapy is an age-old treatment with the addition of heat for a modern twist. Hot stone therapy promotes healing by targeting the deeper layers of muscle through the use of heated stones. Combined with regular bodywork, this treatment delivers a wealth of benefits. Warm and soothe your body with this specialized, unique bodywork. Whether you're looking to help ease chronic muscle tension or just completely relax, hot stone bodywork is for you.
Deep Tissue Bodywork
Deep tissue bodywork is designed to relieve pain and muscle tension throughout the body. This type of bodywork is extremely beneficial because it reaches the deepest layer of muscles, fascia (connective tissue surrounding the joints) and tendons. The goal in deep tissue bodywork is to breakdown adhesions (tense areas within the muscle). Adhesions in the muscle are very important to address because they cause pain, inflammation and limit motion of the muscles and joints.
