​Deep Tissue Massage

$200 for 90 min
Deep tissue massage is for clients who need firm overall pressure and targeted trigger point work to achieve effective release of tight muscles. Sessions may incorporate active stretching and sports massage techniques such as instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization. This type of work is aimed at creating physical disruptions of dense, congested, or bound up tissues, and clients may experience overall soreness or localized tenderness following the session.

​Sessions may include heat therapy, cupping, or gua sha.


​Cupping Therapy

Cupping is a traditional practice from the West that uses suction to manipulate the bodies tissues. This technique carries an array of benefits for tight muscles by increasing circulation, moving lymph, and loosening adhesions. The cups may be moved in a gliding fashion across the skin, or left in one place for 3-7 minutes.
​
Cups may leave a mark on the skin that lasts for 2-5 days.
Benefits of Cupping:
- Lifts, rolls, and warms the tissues which helps to loosen adhesions and free up myofascial restrictions
- Draws fluids through tissue, increasing blood and nutrient flow to areas of constriction
- Encourages the movement of lymph fluid, strengthening the immune system
​- Opens the pores of the skin and increases circulation locally, increasing the benefit of topical salves and oils

Contraindications:
- hernia, varicose veins, thrombosis
- Infection, rash, irritation, sunburn, recent wounds
- First 3 months of pregnancy
- Caution while fasting or otherwise weakened constitution
