All Muscle Detox
Deep tissue therapy aims at a deeper level of the muscle tissue and is more focused on specific areas of pain and tension. Swedish and deep tissue massage are used together in a session, which can either be a full body massage or may concentrate on areas of concern. Deep tissue massage is not designed to hurt as some may think. Discuss with your therapist what level of deep you find to be comfortable. We offer deep to extremely deep levels to suit each preference.

As the stone cools, it is replaced with another heated stone.

To The Point
Trigger Points occur when a muscle is in constant contraction typically due to how we hold and position ourselves. Generally, stiff holding patterns occur in the shoulders due to daily stress. These holding patterns go undetected to our conscious mind because they are so slight that the contraction is on the fibril level of the entire muscle. Trigger points can last years without treatment.
Typically 5-6 treatments will rid you of the full onslaught of pain. Our therapists use trigger point massage in almost all of the massages performed here. It is an effective and pain relieving, stress relieving treatment. Trigger point therapy tends to be deeper in nature, but can be performed at a light to medium level of pressure to accommodate clients needs and comfortability.
Myo My

Enjoy restored balance in the body.

Purge Power
Manual lymphatic drainage or Detox massage is a very effective way of detoxing the body plus stimulating vital immune defenses. This is a powerful, deep cleansing treatment. The lymphatic system has a vital role in the body by regulating the immune system, which protects the body against infection. It transports nutrients to cells and eliminates metabolic wastes, toxins and excess fluids from the body.
Orient Your Feet
The art of Reflexology dates back to Ancient Egypt, India and China. This technique was rediscovered in 1913 by Dr. William Fitzgerald, and was introduced to the west. Dr. Fitzgerald found that applying pressure to certain areas of the hands and feet was linked to other areas and organs of the body within the same zone. Reflexology is a complimentary therapy, which works to heal the whole body, not just prevailing symptoms. Reflexology can help restore and maintain the body's natural equilibrium. This encourages the body to work naturally to restore its own healthy balance. Reflexology - the ideal foot massage!
Un-Thai Me
What we know in the west as "Thai massage" is really more like a form of assisted yoga with pressure along energy lines of the body. An ingenious and efficient blend of stretching and acupressure, Thai massage can be relaxing, invigorating and therapeutic, all at the same time. Two hours is recommended for this massage.
Give Me A Break
Life is passing so fast…no time??? Come in for a 30 or 45 minute neck, back and shoulder massage. This is a perfect massage for targeting problem areas.

Balance Point
Oriental massage techniques in which the therapists fingers are pressed on particular points of the body to ease aches, pains, tensions, fatigues and symptoms of disease. Acupressure is used to maintain health, vitality, stamina in the body and prevent energy from getting blocked. Therapists are trained to watch and use clients breath when applying pressure to designated points which helps restore balance.
Scientific Solace
This therapy helps to relieve pinch nerves by stimulating the nervous system while applying soft tissue manipulation. Slow and steady pressure on trigger points (tight bends in muscle) is used. Neuromuscular therapy is a specific and scientific approach to muscular pain relief that brings about balance between the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system.
I Hate Needles
Dawn, our Hydra-Surge Facial massage technician provides this lifting and tightening, results driven therapy. This treatment improves muscle tissue tone and promotes conditioning of the facial muscles to reduce sagging skin. It softens the skin using natural oils and is a non-invasive procedure. It removes impurities, releases toxins, reduces puffiness, firms skin around the jaw and neckline, and reduces fines lines. It also works well as a pre and post operative treatment. Lymphatic drainage of the face and neck is a direct result of this therapy.
