Swedish & Deep Tissue Massage

 

Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress-related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. Massage is an effective tool for managing this stress, which translates into:

  • Decreased anxiety
  • Enhanced sleep quality
  • Greater energy
  • Improved concentration
  • Increased circulation
  • Reduced fatigue

I blend a combination of Acupressure, Chinese Bodywork (Tui Na), Swedish, and Deep Tissue massage. I will work with you to determine which modalities best suit your individual needs.


Benefits of Massage

Massage can also help specifically address a number of health issues. Bodywork can:

  • Alleviate low-back pain and improve range of motion.
  • Increase joint flexibility.
  • Reduce spasms and cramping.
  • Enhance immunity by stimulating lymph flow—the body's natural defense system.
  • Exercise and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.
  • Help athletes of any level prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts.
  • Improve the condition of the body's largest organ—the skin.
  • Lessen depression and anxiety.
  • Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks.
  • Pump oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation.
  • Reduce postsurgery adhesions and swelling.
  • Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.
  • Release endorphins—amino acids that work as the body's natural painkiller.
  • Relieve migraine pain.
  • Ease medication dependence.

Best Massage Ever!
I am a 71 year-old woman, I have a back I refer to as ‘a masterpiece of mis-alingment’. Throughout my life I have had innumerable massages, but there is a special quality to the massage I received from David that surpasses all of them!

Because of his extensive education, and inherent sensitivity, he is able to go directly to the muscles that need attention and work out the stiffness effectively. It has always been difficult to find a therapist who can ease the pain, without too much or too little pressure.

I would (and have) recommend David over and above any other therapist I have ever seen.
