massage therapy
Massage therapy is a combination of manual techniques used to manipulate the soft tissues of the body. Hands-on therapy has been used throughout the ages as a means to promote healing and relieve stress.
RELAXATION MASSAGE
Relaxation massage is a deep, medium or light pressure massage that will remove the tightness from tired muscles and promote a feeling of relaxation.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Sports massage is a deep tissue massage to prevent injury, enhance recovery and treat chronic or acute injuries. Pre and post-event massage occurs directly before or after training or competition to help the body perform at its peak and recover efficiently.
