DEEP TISSUE SPORTS MASSAGE

Combining a Deep Tissue & Sports massage is great for the weekend warrior or the athlete.  This massage is a wonderful way to prepare and recover from sporting events. Overusing muscles can lead to decreases in range of motion and increases in the levels of lactic acid, which can cause muscle soreness and stiffness.  Various techniques including deep tissue and stretching may be incorporated to prevent injury and enhance recovery. The focus is on preventing and treating injury and enhancing athletic performance. It is not uncommon for clients to feel sore for one to two days after deep tissue massage.

 A Deep Tissue/Sports Massage targets teh deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. I use slower strokes and friction techniques across the grain of the muscle using my forearms, elbows, and body weight to add pressure. This technique includes passive stretching (its like doing yoga with "you" doing any of the work) and working with pressure points dimlar to Shiatsu.  I use my finggers with firm pressure, in  arhythmic sequence along the meridans of your body. This improves the flow of energy and helps to align all of the body's systems.

  My massage can also be used in conjunction with other forms of therapy. I am happy to establish a relationship with your doctor, acupunturist, or physical therapist in order to suport you and your healing plan.
