MASSAGE SERVICES & RATES
While several massage techniques are incorporated into massage treatments to enhance your overall experience, each massage is custom fit for your specific needs that day. You will experience a comfortable, relaxing session where communication is welcomed and encouraged between patient and massage therapist. As my client, I will spend time listening to your needs/goals for the session prior to massage and am open to your requests during massage, i.e. if you would like less or more pressure, etc. Communication is important in order to give you the relief you deserve. I also understand the importance of relaxation so I encourage you to relax and enjoy the nurturing touch that massage offers. I am here for you and want to provide you with a great healing massage. Relax, renew, and rejuvenate through healing hands at Middlebury Massage.
SWEDISH: Focuses on the body's soft tissue to promote a balanced state of health. Techniques such as effleurage and kneading are used to relax muscles during massage. Swedish Massage has been proven to decrease heart rate and blood pressure, improve circulation and lymph flow and increase the body's own pain killers called endorphins. It is also beneficial in pre and post sport events, stress reduction, improving joint movement, soothing muscle aches, pain, stiffness and decreasing spasms.
DEEP TISSUE: Deep Tissue Massage aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. It is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is important to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. For many clients who seek a deeper tissue massage, I incorporate CUPPING THERAPY to release fascia and chronic "knotted" muscles. Plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
BAMBOO Massage: A style of massage where heated bamboo of different sizes are massaged onto the body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation to the muscles. Muscles which are heated with the bamboo become relaxed and soothed. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
PREGNANCY/Prenatal: Pregnancy massage is massage therapy specifically tailored for the expectant mother's needs. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Pregnancy Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.
