Modalities

Swedish massage first warms and softens the more superficial layers of tissue so that the therapist can then sink into deeper layers and use deep tissue massage techniques.  Gentle techniques associated with deep tissue massage include kneading, tapping, stretching,  rocking, and long gliding stokes. 

Hot stone massage is conducted using warm, smooth stones that are placed on the body and held in the therapist's hands.  Light pressure is used while the warmth of the stones penetrates the tissues causing deep relaxation of stressed muscles.
