Shiatsu
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of bodywork. Shiatsu therapists apply finger and palm pressure to energetic pathways called meridians to improve the natural flow of energy throughout the body. Pressure feels more localized because finger pads are used to apply pressure for most of this treatment. This therapy improves circulation, relieves stiff muscles and alleviates stress.

Craniosacral Therapy

Your therapist will massage your head, neck and face using specific techniques to target the pressure points in these areas to relieve pressure and discomfort. Cranial-Sacral Therapy can be beneficial for many conditions including neck and back pain, computer stress syndrome, headaches, fatigue, mental stress, sleep disorders, emotional imbalance and chronic pain conditions.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is a program of recovery from acute and chronic pain. Trigger point Pressure is usually applied with the fingers, knuckles, or elbows. This approach brings balance between the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. The American Academy of Pain Management recognizes this form of therapy as an effective treatment for pain caused by soft tissue injury such as a muscle strain. After the muscle is relaxed through massage therapy, lactic acid is released from the muscle resulting in improved blood flow.
