Swedish Therapeutic Massage
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes to help the body improve its circulation and slow down the nervous system. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity and greater flexibility.
The amount of pressure I use during your massage is dependent on your level of sensitivity. When I receive my monthly massages, I enjoy firm, slow pressure. But, sometimes I am sensitive in certain areas of my body and it actually hurts. So, I speak up and ask my therapist to ease up a bit on that area. But, there is nothing more comforting and soothing than JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE! And I've been told many times that I have a real knack for balancing my pressure in all the right places! :)
Clients often ask if I do Deep Tissue massage. I prefer to call it Firm Pressure massage. So-called Deep Tissue massage is actually counter-productive to your nervous system and serves no purpose other than to over sensitize it and send you home hurting more than when you arrived.

Cancer/Oncology Massage
Oncology Massage is a special type of massage developed specifically for cancer patients. Cancer patients have unique needs which must be addressed to make sure that a massage is beneficial to their health. I focus my attention on creating a gentle, nurturing environment for you to relax into. This is for various stages of cancer, both during and post-treatment. The benefits are reduced anxiety, pain and nausea and improved sleep.
Clothed Table Massage
Think of this massage as a full body HUG! This is similar to seated chair massage, but laying down on my warm, soft massage table (fully clothed) using compressions and stretches, head to toe. Also included is a luxurious hand and foot massage.
