Holistic Massage Therapy

Holistic Massage Therapy is a therapeutic massage which affects the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels of the body. Massage has a powerful influence on the human body as it supports and encourages the body's own healing powers.

How long is a massage?

A massage is usually 1 hour long unless one wants a shorter time period.  A 30 minute massage can also be done.  In the first session, a massage intake form is done covering health history and what your reason is for coming for the massage. This is done so that I am sure to cover the areas you want massaged and help support your healing with things such as chronic pain, injury, or simply to help you just relax and unwind.

​

What is the difference between a holistic massage and other types of massage? 

It is much alike in that we work with the many of the same techniques and foundations such as working with the muscular system, promoting circulation, and aiding lymphatic flow.  The focus, however, is a bit different. In Holistic Massage, we  provide a treatment that not only helps mechanical issues but we also look at your body as a whole system.  This includes your mind, body, emotions, and lifestyle.   We do a thorough intake so that we can offer you support with this holistic approach in mind to give you the best treatment possible.  Aftercare advice is given, such as stretches or strengthening exercises, to help prolong the effects of the massage given.​

​

What types of techniques do you use during massage?

I do deep tissue, myofascial release, swedish techniques, and others.  I am sure to check in with you to see what is working for you and what is not.
