Massage techniques we offer
Below are the most requested soft‑tissue options. Book a 20‑, 30‑, or 40‑minute visit on its own or combine it with your chiropractic adjustment.
| Technique | Best for | What you’ll feel |
| Therapeutic stone | Persistent tightness before an adjustment | Warm stones glide across muscles, allowing deeper work without extra pressure |
| Deep tissue | Stiff desk shoulders, post‑workout legs | Slow, firm strokes that loosen thick fascia and release trigger points |
| Reflexology foot work | Heel fatigue, plantar tightness, calf cramps | Targeted thumb pressure on nerve‑dense foot zones; many feel entire leg relax |
| Swedish recovery | Whole‑body soreness after training | Light‑to‑moderate strokes that boost circulation and speed waste removal |
| Neck & shoulder focus | Tension headaches, screen‑time neck pain | Gentle cupping or Active Release style work on upper‑back and neck fibers |
