- Swedish massage is one of the most commonly offered and well-known types of massage. It is a softer, more superficial approach to massage used to improve circulation, relieve muscle pain and tension, and create relaxation.
- Deep tissue massage is a type of massage that focuses on realigning the deepest layer of muscles and connective tissues. It works by physically breaking down adhesions in the muscle to relieve pain and helps restore proper movement and function.
- Neuromuscular/Trigger Point Therapy applies direct pressure to specific tender points in a muscle. These tender points are known as trigger points and can refer pain and sensations to other parts of the body. This type of therapy usually leads to immediate release of tension and improved muscle function.
- Myofascial Release is a style that focuses on the fascia, the complex network of connective tissue in the body that extends from the head to the feet. The fascia can contain a lot of pain, tension, and tightness that can contribute to soft tissue pain. By releasing pressure on the fascia using wide stretching techniques, a massage therapist aims to release the pain of the soft tissues and increase freedom of movement.
