Benefits of Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is the classic—the one most people picture when they think "massage." Using medium pressure and long, flowing strokes, it works out the everyday tension that builds up in your neck, shoulders, and back. You'll notice better circulation too, which helps flush out that post-workout soreness.
There's also the mental side. An hour on the table does wonders for clearing your head. Most clients tell us they sleep better that night and feel less wound up for days afterward. It's simple, effective relaxation—no gimmicks, just good hands-on therapy.
Who Should Get Swedish Massage
First time getting a massage? Start here. The pressure is comfortable, not intense, so you can actually relax instead of bracing yourself. It's also great if you've had a brutal week at work and just need to decompress.
Having trouble sleeping? A lot of our clients book Swedish specifically for that. The relaxation carries over into bedtime. Really, this is the go-to for anyone who wants to feel better without getting into deep therapeutic work. Sometimes you just need to unwind.
Tips for Best Results from Swedish Massage
Show up a few minutes early so you're not rushing in stressed. Let your therapist know where you're holding tension—they can spend extra time on those spots. And drink water afterward; it helps with any post-massage grogginess.
Don't eat a big meal right before—you'll be face-down for a while. After the massage, try not to jump straight into a hectic schedule. Give yourself time to enjoy feeling relaxed. Coming in every few weeks keeps the stress from piling up again.
Combination Massage

Benefits of Combination Therapy
Get the best of both worlds. You start with Swedish massage—full-body, relaxing strokes that loosen you up from head to toe. Then we shift to your feet for reflexology work, targeting those pressure points that connect to the rest of your body.
The result? You're relaxed all over, but also energized. Swedish handles the big muscle groups while reflexology gets into the specific tension spots. Most clients tell us this combo leaves them feeling more balanced than either treatment alone.
Reflexology Benefits
Reflexology works specific pressure points on your feet. The idea is that these points connect to different organs and systems throughout your body. Press the right spots and you trigger relaxation that spreads everywhere. It's surprisingly effective for stress relief.
Clients notice better sleep, fewer headaches, and improved digestion. The circulation boost from all that focused pressure work helps your whole system run smoother.
What to Expect
We start with Swedish—about two-thirds of your session—getting your whole body relaxed. Then we transition to reflexology on your feet. The pressure is gentle to medium throughout, and we adjust based on what you're comfortable with.
By the end, you'll feel that combination of calm and clear that's hard to get any other way. Most people walk out feeling like they hit a reset button.
Thai Massage
Think of it as yoga without doing any of the work yourself. Your therapist guides you through stretches while applying rhythmic pressure along your body's energy lines. Great for loosening up stiff joints and getting your energy flowing again.

Benefits of Thai Massage
Thai massage isn't your typical lie-there-and-zone-out experience. You'll be moved, stretched, and pressed in ways that open up your whole body. People walk out standing taller and moving easier. The stretches get into positions you'd never hit on your own at home.
It's also surprisingly energizing. Unlike Swedish, where you might want a nap after, Thai tends to wake you up. Something about working those energy lines and getting everything moving again. The combination of pressure and stretching loosens up stiff joints and tight muscles at the same time.
Who Should Get Thai Massage
Yoga people love this—it's like having someone do the hard stretching for you. Same goes for runners, climbers, and anyone whose body gets tight from training. If you sit at a desk all day and feel like you're turning into a pretzel, Thai can straighten you back out.
Want a massage but hate feeling oily? Thai is done fully clothed, no lotions involved. It's more active too, so if lying still for an hour sounds boring, you might prefer the engaged, dynamic feel of Thai work.
Tips for Best Results from Thai Massage
Wear loose, stretchy clothes—you'll be moving around a lot. Skip the big lunch beforehand since there's pressing involved and a full stomach isn't comfortable. Tell your therapist about any injuries or spots to avoid.
Breathe into the stretches; it makes them work better and hurt less. Don't be surprised if you feel energized rather than sleepy when it's done—that's normal. Drink plenty of water and consider coming back in a few weeks to keep building on the flexibility gains.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage focuses on the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue to release chronic tension, muscle knots, and stiffness. Firm pressure focuses on specific areas.

Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage
This is the heavy-duty option. Deep tissue gets into the stubborn knots and chronic tension that regular massage can't touch. If you've been dealing with that same tight spot in your back for months, this is what finally works on it. The therapist uses firm, focused pressure to break up the adhesions and scar tissue restricting your movement.
Fair warning: it can be intense. But that's the point. You're trading some discomfort during the session for real relief afterward. People with desk-job posture or old injuries notice a big difference. The deep work also helps with stress—there's something about releasing that deep-held tension that calms the whole system.
Who Should Get Deep Tissue Treatment
Anyone with muscle pain that regular massage hasn't fixed. Athletes who train hard and need serious recovery work. Office workers with that chronic neck-and-shoulder situation from hunching at computers all day.
Recovering from an injury? Deep tissue helps break down scar tissue and restore normal movement. Got posture problems from years of bad habits? This addresses those structural issues. If lighter massage has never quite hit the spot, deep tissue might be what your body actually needs.
Tips for Best Results
Hydrate before and after—this helps your body flush out what gets released during the work. Speak up during the session. Deep tissue should feel like productive discomfort, not unbearable pain. Your therapist can adjust.
Breathe through the intense spots instead of tensing up against them. Give yourself some easy time afterward—your body needs to process the work. One session helps, but coming back regularly is where you see the real changes add up.
Sports Massage

Benefits of Sports Massage
If you train hard, your muscles take a beating. Sports massage targets the specific groups you use most—whether that's legs from running, shoulders from swimming, or everything from CrossFit. The work breaks down adhesions and flushes out the buildup that causes that heavy, tight feeling after intense sessions.
Getting regular work done keeps you flexible and catches problem areas before they turn into injuries. Better blood flow means faster recovery between workouts. A lot of athletes treat this as non-negotiable—part of the training itself, not just a nice extra.
Who Should Get Sports Massage
Competitive athletes who need to perform consistently and bounce back fast. Weekend warriors who push hard on Saturday and feel it all week. Anyone dealing with chronic tightness from running, lifting, cycling, or whatever gets you moving.
Training for a race or event? Pre-competition massage a few days out can optimize your readiness, and post-event massage speeds recovery. Even people with physical jobs—construction, nursing, landscaping—benefit from the targeted muscle work.
Tips for Best Results from Sports Massage
Time it around your training. Don't book intense work right before a big workout or competition—give your muscles a couple days to settle. After hard events, come in within a day or two for recovery work.
Tell your therapist what you've been training and what's coming up. They'll adjust the approach accordingly. Stay hydrated, do some light movement after your session, and remember: this works best as a regular thing, not a once-a-year rescue mission.
Shiatsu Massage

Benefits of Shiatsu Massage
Shiatsu comes from Japan and works completely differently from Western massage. Instead of long strokes, your therapist uses their thumbs, fingers, and palms to apply rhythmic pressure along your body's energy lines. It's firm, focused work that releases stubborn tension and gets your circulation moving.
What makes Shiatsu unique is how calming it is for your nervous system. The pressure and rhythm put your body into a deep state of rest—the opposite of the fight-or-flight mode most of us live in. Regular sessions help you stay balanced instead of constantly running on stress.
Who Should Get Shiatsu Massage
If you like firm pressure and want something different from typical Swedish massage, try Shiatsu. It's great for chronic neck, shoulder, and back tension that keeps coming back. Also good if you're constantly tired or stressed—it has a restorative quality that helps you recharge.
Interested in Eastern bodywork? Shiatsu is the real deal. And since it's done fully clothed with no oils, it's a good option if you prefer to stay dressed. A lot of clients with headaches, stomach issues, or sleep trouble find the work helps—the relaxation seems to carry over into other areas.
Tips for Best Results from Shiatsu Massage
Wear something loose and comfortable—you'll stay dressed for this one. Don't eat a big meal beforehand. Let your therapist know about any problem areas or health stuff they should be aware of.
Breathe slow and steady during the session—it makes the work go deeper. Drink water afterward and take it easy if you can. Coming back every few weeks keeps the benefits building instead of starting over each time.

Benefits of Holistic Wellness Massage
This one takes a step back from just working on muscles. Holistic Wellness Massage treats everything together—physical tension, mental stress, emotional weight. Your therapist combines techniques based on what you need that day, creating a session that addresses the whole picture.
The physical stuff still happens—better circulation, looser muscles, less pain. But there's a deeper calming effect too. Stress hormones drop, your nervous system settles down, and most clients leave feeling genuinely restored. Sleeping better and thinking clearer often follow.
Who Should Get Holistic Wellness Massage
If you need a reset button—physically and mentally—this is it. Works well when you're running on empty, stressed out, or just feel disconnected from yourself. The kind of massage you book when "just a backrub" isn't going to cut it.
Good for people who want their therapist to take an individualized approach rather than running through a standard routine. If you're working on your overall health and wellness, this fits into that bigger picture nicely.
Tips for Best Results from Holistic Wellness Massage
Show up ready to actually relax, not just go through the motions. Tell your therapist what's going on—stress at work, trouble sleeping, whatever. They'll adjust the session accordingly. Breathe deep during the work.
Don't rush out afterward. Give yourself a few minutes to come back to the world slowly. Drink water, take it easy, and try to hold onto that calm feeling. Making this a regular thing keeps the benefits building over time.

Benefits of Reflexology Foot Therapy
Reflexology is all about the feet. Specific pressure points on your feet connect to different parts of your body, and working those points triggers a relaxation response that spreads through your whole system. It's surprisingly calming—most people don't realize how much tension they hold in their feet until it's released.
Clients report sleeping better, feeling less stressed, and having more energy after regular sessions. Some notice improvement with headaches and digestive issues too. The circulation boost from all that focused pressure work helps everything function a little better.
Who Should Get Reflexology
Great if you're on your feet all day—nurses, teachers, retail workers, servers. Your feet are probably screaming for attention. Also good for stress relief when you don't have time for a full-body massage. A 30-minute session packs a lot of relaxation into a short window.
Prefer to stay dressed? Reflexology only requires you to take off your shoes and socks. It's a good entry point for people who are curious about massage but not ready to undress. Works well as an add-on to regular massage too—your feet do a lot of work and deserve some attention.
Tips for Best Results from Reflexology
Clean feet, no jewelry on your ankles. That's about it for prep. Tell your therapist if you have any spots that are extra sensitive or areas you want them to focus on.
Relax and breathe during the session—fighting the pressure works against you. Drink water afterward. Coming in regularly (every week or two) keeps the benefits going, especially if you're using it for stress management.

Chair massage is ideal for office workers, drivers, students, and anyone who spends extended periods sitting or working at a computer. Those with limited time who still want the benefits of professional massage will appreciate the efficient format. People who feel uncomfortable with traditional massage or are new to massage therapy often find chair massage a welcoming introduction.

It's also perfect for corporate wellness programs, events, and quick lunchtime relaxation sessions. Anyone seeking immediate stress relief without the commitment of a longer appointment will benefit from this accessible treatment.
Tips for Best Results from Chair Massage
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing to your appointment—avoid thick sweaters or bulky fabrics that might interfere with the massage. Remove any necklaces or scarves before your session. Communicate with your therapist about areas of particular tension or any spots to avoid.
Take a few deep breaths as you settle into the chair to begin relaxing your muscles. After your massage, drink plenty of water and take a few moments to enjoy the relaxed state before returning to your activities. Consider scheduling regular chair massage sessions to prevent tension from building up over time.

Benefits of Facial Treatment
Professional facial treatments go far beyond what you can achieve with at-home skincare. Our estheticians perform deep cleansing to remove impurities, dead skin cells, and excess oil that clog pores and dull your complexion. The treatment stimulates blood circulation, promoting cell renewal and giving your skin a healthy, natural glow.
Regular facials help maintain skin health, reduce signs of aging, and address specific concerns like acne, dryness, or uneven tone. The relaxing massage techniques used during the treatment reduce facial tension and promote lymphatic drainage, which can reduce puffiness and improve skin texture. You'll leave with skin that looks clearer, feels softer, and radiates vitality.
Who Should Get Facial Treatment
Facial treatments benefit virtually everyone, regardless of skin type or age. Those dealing with acne, congested pores, or dull skin will see immediate improvement. If you're concerned about signs of aging—fine lines, wrinkles, or loss of elasticity—regular facials help maintain youthful, healthy skin.
Anyone preparing for a special event like a wedding, party, or photo shoot should consider a facial to ensure their skin looks its best. Those who want to establish or enhance their skincare routine benefit from professional guidance during treatment. Even if your skin is generally healthy, monthly facials help maintain that condition and address concerns before they become problems.
Tips for Best Results from Facial Treatment
Come to your appointment with a clean face, free of heavy makeup. Be prepared to discuss your current skincare routine and any specific concerns with your esthetician. Avoid using retinoids, exfoliating acids, or harsh products for 24-48 hours before your facial.
After your treatment, protect your fresh skin from direct sun exposure and avoid touching your face unnecessarily. Follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your esthetician. For optimal results, schedule facials every 4-6 weeks to align with your skin's natural renewal cycle.

Who Should Get Focus Relief Massage
This treatment is perfect for anyone who experiences frequent tension headaches, neck stiffness, or shoulder pain. Office workers, students, and anyone who spends hours looking at screens will benefit from the targeted relief. Those who carry stress in their upper body—whether from work pressure, poor posture, or repetitive movements—find significant improvement after just one session.
If you have limited time but need effective relief, the Focus Relief Massage delivers maximum benefit in a shorter session. It's also ideal as a complement to full-body massage, allowing you to address specific problem areas between longer appointments. Anyone seeking fast, targeted relief without committing to a full treatment will appreciate this efficient, effective option.
Tips for Best Results from Focus Relief Massage
Arrive with a clear idea of which areas are bothering you most so you can communicate effectively with your therapist. Wear a shirt that's easy to adjust or remove for access to your neck and shoulders. Mention any recent injuries or areas of particular sensitivity before the massage begins.
During the treatment, breathe deeply and try to relax the muscles your therapist is working on—tension can limit the effectiveness of the massage. After your session, be mindful of your posture and take regular breaks from screens to maintain the benefits. Consider scheduling Focus Relief sessions regularly if you have ongoing upper body tension.

Benefits of Radiant Glow Body Scrub
The Radiant Glow Body Scrub is a luxurious exfoliation treatment that transforms your skin from dull and dry to smooth, bright, and radiant. By removing dead skin cells and impurities, this treatment reveals the fresh, healthy skin beneath. The exfoliation process stimulates blood circulation and cell renewal, promoting a more youthful, vibrant appearance.
After exfoliation, your skin is primed to absorb moisture more effectively, maximizing the benefits of any moisturizers or treatments applied afterward. The body scrub also helps improve skin texture, reducing the appearance of rough patches, bumps, and uneven tone. Many clients notice their skin feels incredibly soft and looks noticeably brighter immediately after treatment.
Who Should Get Body Scrub
Anyone seeking smoother, more radiant skin will benefit from the Radiant Glow Body Scrub. It's perfect before a massage, as exfoliated skin absorbs the therapeutic oils more effectively. Those preparing for special events—weddings, vacations, photo shoots—should consider a body scrub to ensure their skin looks and feels its absolute best.
If you struggle with dry, rough, or dull skin, regular body scrubs can make a significant difference in texture and appearance. The treatment is also excellent for those who want to maintain an even skin tone or reduce the appearance of ingrown hairs. Anyone who wants to feel pampered while achieving real skincare results will love this luxurious treatment.
Tips for Best Results from Body Scrub
Avoid shaving or waxing for 24-48 hours before your body scrub, as freshly shaved skin may be sensitive to exfoliation. Come to your appointment well-hydrated, as this helps your skin respond better to the treatment. Let your esthetician know about any areas of particular concern or sensitivity.
After your body scrub, apply moisturizer regularly to maintain the smooth, soft results. Avoid direct sun exposure and use sunscreen, as freshly exfoliated skin is more sensitive to UV rays. For best ongoing results, schedule body scrubs every 4-6 weeks, or pair with a massage for the ultimate spa experience.

Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic Drainage Massage uses gentle, rhythmic techniques to stimulate the lymphatic system—your body's natural waste-removal network. This specialized treatment helps move lymph fluid through the body, supporting immune function and helping reduce excess fluid and metabolic waste. The light, soothing pressure promotes deep relaxation while delivering significant therapeutic benefits.
Regular lymphatic drainage can reduce swelling and puffiness, particularly in the face, arms, and legs. The treatment supports post-surgical recovery, helps manage lymphedema, and can improve skin health and appearance. Many clients report feeling lighter, more energized, and experiencing improved overall wellness after sessions.
Who Should Get Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage is excellent for anyone seeking gentle, restorative therapy that supports whole-body wellness. Those recovering from surgery—particularly cosmetic procedures like liposuction or tummy tucks—benefit significantly from the treatment's ability to reduce swelling and speed healing. People dealing with chronic swelling, water retention, or lymphedema find consistent relief.
If you prefer lighter pressure massage or find deep tissue work too intense, lymphatic drainage offers therapeutic benefits with a gentler approach. Those looking to support their body's natural processes and reduce inflammation will appreciate this specialized treatment. Anyone seeking deep relaxation combined with tangible wellness benefits should consider lymphatic drainage.
Tips for Best Results from Lymphatic Drainage
Stay well-hydrated before and after your treatment to support your lymphatic system's natural function. Avoid alcohol and caffeine on the day of your appointment, as these can interfere with lymphatic function. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and remove any tight jewelry before your session.
After your treatment, continue drinking plenty of water and consider light movement like walking to keep the lymph flowing. Avoid strenuous exercise immediately after the massage, allowing your body to process the treatment. For chronic conditions or post-surgical recovery, your therapist may recommend a series of sessions for optimal results.
