The body in movement is the most eloquent communicator, the most stirring provocateur, the clearest truth-teller, and the basic essence of one's presence on earth.

SWEDISH MASSAGE--is often recognized by its dance-like, flowing style.
The intention of Swedish is to increase circulation by moving blood and lymph.
It uses a soothing manipulation of the muscles and other soft tissues to relieve tension and encourage relaxation.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE--focuses on lengthening, spreading and differentiating the fascia of the body.
Many receivers of this work describe it as a more intense session bringing about heightened awareness, increased flexibility, increased range of motion, & relief from chronic postural habits.

Therapeutic massage involves the therapist manually manipulating the soft tissue structures of the body(muscles, ligaments, tendons) to alleviate pain, discomfort, muscle spasm, stress, and to promote health and wellness.
Massage therapy improves the functioning of the circulatory, lymphatic, muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems, and may improve the rate at which the body recovers from illness and injury.
The AMTA(American Massage Therapy Association) defines massage therapy as "a profession in which the practitioner applies manual techniques, and may apply adjunctive therapies, with the intention of positively affecting the health and well-being of the client."
