The goal of Swedish Massage is to melt away muscle tension and increase the blood flow to your heart. Swedish Massage is extremely therapeutic as it decreases muscle toxins, increases oxygen levels in the blood, and improves flexibility in the body.
Therapeutic massage is a general term that describes any type of massage modality that helps relieve pain, reduce stress, and work on a specific problem—such as a frozen shoulder. While this modality is firm it is not considered deep tissue.
Cupping therapy is a traditional medical practice that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. The suction is created by using heat, which is either a flame or a vacuum pump, to remove the air inside the cup. This creates a vacuum effect, causing the skin and underlying muscle tissue to be drawn upward into the cup.
Cupping therapy is believed to have many benefits, including the relief of muscle tension, reduced inflammation, and improved blood flow. It is also believed to enhance the body's natural healing processes, boost the immune system, and alleviate pain.

Lymphatic drainage massage, also known as manual lymphatic drainage, relieves swelling that happens when medical treatment or illness blocks your lymphatic system. Lymphatic drainage massage involves gently manipulating specific areas of your body to help lymph move to an area with working lymph vessels.
Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that’s mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue.
Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefit. Aromatherapy has been used for centuries. When inhaled, the scent molecules in essential oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional center of the brain.
Essential oils can also be absorbed by the skin.
Stomach massage is a practice that has been around for centuries. It has been shown to improve digestion and stomach upsets as well as improve the body’s immune function.
In addition to alleviating gut-related pain and digestive issues, stomach massage may also be used to strengthen weak abdominal muscles – improving posture and preventing injury.
