Sports Massage
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body’s natural immune function.
Prenatal Massage
Prenatal massage helps relieve increased stress on your back, neck, shoulders and abdominal muscles. A body/pregnancy pillow system is used to allow you to lie comfortably, flat and fully supported during the treatment.
