Our goal is to facilitate healing and focusing primarily in pain relief and Reiki energy work. Deep tissue massage dives deep into your muscles, working out knots and tension that linger beneath the surface. Imagine a skilled therapist using firm pressure and slow strokes to reach those hidden layers, like a sculptor meticulously chiseling away at a block of stone.
It's not always the gentlest experience, and some discomfort is to be expected as the therapist works on those stubborn knots. Trigger point massage targets tight, knotted muscles by applying focused pressure to relieve pain and tension. This can be done manually by a therapist or using self-massage tools like balls or foam rollers.
While it can be uncomfortable, the pressure aims to release trigger points, potentially improving blood flow and easing referred pain in other areas. TMJ massage focuses on relieving pain and tension in the muscles surrounding the temporomandibular joint TMJ , the hinge connecting your jaw to your skull. It can be a helpful natural therapy for those suffering from temporomandibular disorders TMD , which can cause jaw pain, clicking, popping, and even headaches.
Myofascial Release gently stretches and lengthens the body's fascial web, targeting stiff areas to improve flexibility and reduce pain.
Unlike Trigger Point massage, it focuses on broader fascial tissues instead of isolated knots. Gentle, sustained pressure helps release tension, potentially improving range of motion and reducing chronic pain. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing.
