Cross Fiber Massage
Cross Fiber Massage is a pulling action across the muscle fibers. It is very effective for relaxing stubborn tight muscles. The therapist uses slow firm pressure to go deeper than the superficial muscles to reach and massage deep muscles. Cross Fiber is for clients who need firmer pressure to help relax or for longer lasting pain relief.

Bowen Therapy
Bowen Therapy is a gentle yet precise roll of thumbs and fingers over muscles and fascia. It initiates temporary tensing of the muscles then relaxation. Specific regions of the body are addressed in sequence. A short pause between moves lets the body respond. This helps the body bring itself into balance. There are typically 7 to 10 sets of moves during a session. The average number of treatments people have is three to four. There are always exceptions to any rule, and some people will need further or even on-going treatment. A week before and after the session, the client is encouraged to avoid other hands-on treatments in order for their body to be prepared for treatment and then afterwards to do its job of maintaining healthy balance.

Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is a light, full body technique which uses petrissage (kneading of the skin) and effleurage (long gliding strokes). The main benefit of Swedish massage is relaxation. Fascia and superficial muscles relax under light, broad rubbing of the skin. Essential oil products are used to aid in relaxing sore muscles.
