Our Eastern Style Massages are fully clothed, oil-less massages. They are pressure point based modalities that follow the energy lines of the body. We provide comfortable clothes for our Traditional Thai and Japanese Acupressure massages and upon request for our other services. Our Foot Reflexology massages are performed in a relaxing lounge chair, and our other Eastern massage services are performed on a comfortable floor mat.

Our Western Style massages are oil based, clothless massages that are performed on massage tables in a private room. A sheet will be used to cover your body and your therapist will only expose the part of the body that is being worked on. These are Swedish based techniques that involve kneading, sliding, and stroking of the muscles. Lotion may be requested as a substitution for oil.
Deep Tissue

Detox Therapies
Our Detox Therapies combine our Thai Herbal Compress treatment with traditional forms of massage. The Thai Herbal Compress has been used for centuries as a detoxification treatment. It has countless benefits for the body and is frequently used to aid in muscle and soft tissue aches. Soft balls are filled with a special blend of Thai herbs and are steamed before being pressed onto fatigued muscles. The heat induces muscle relaxation while the herbs relieve muscle and joint pain, help to increase circulation, and provide nourishment for the skin. The heat also increases blood oxygen flow, thus oxygenating vital organs and allowing them to be more efficient. By blending the Thai Herbal Compress with massage, one can receive maximum benefits for the body. The heated muscles will become more open to manipulation while the herbs will provide a detoxifying boost to any form of massage. This special treatment can also have a therapeutic effect due to the scent of the special herbs. The herbs used in the Thai Herbal medicine ball typically include tamarind, kaffir leaves, lemongrass, ginger, and eucalyptus which will have a relaxing yet uplifting aromatherapy effect.

Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy with acupressure massage: Cupping therapy or negative pressure, rather than compression, is a great bodywork modality to release the muscle and fascia layers, and do Deep Tissue work as well. Cupping therapy rapidly relaxes soft tissue, loosens and lifts connective structures, breaks up and drains stagnation and toxins, and is also good for weight loss. The therapist uses soft cups that glide effortlessly over your skin giving you a very strong, vigorous but relaxing massage with attention to imbalances of your acupressure meridians, and points. Cupping with acupressure is very good for anyone with very tight muscles, or injuries, sports people, office workers, and people who would like to jump start weight loss.

Reiki
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation. It is administered by "the laying of hands" and is very different from massage. Reiki is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. Some people experience great stress relief and emotional well-being after a Reiki session.

Trigger Point
Trigger Point Therapy is a bodywork modality that directly addresses tightly wound nodules and bands of muscle tissue, allowing them to unwind to provide relief from referred pain and discomfort for long-lasting results. A trigger point is a small patch of tightly contracted muscle, an isolated spasm affecting just a small patch of muscle tissue rather than the whole muscle mass. That small patch of knotted muscle cuts off its own blood supply, which irritates it even more, causing a vicious cycle. This type of bodywork can be greatly beneficial for athletes and people with targeted muscle issues.

Tuina
Tui Na is an ancient form of Chinese massage which uses acupressure, massage and various body manipulations to treat internal and external disorders in the body. Treatments can include gentle and relaxing techniques to heavy pressure and vigorous movements. Tui Na can be used to alleviate pain and injuries, improve circulation and lymphatic flow as well as produce a deep state of relaxation.
