Swedish Massage (50 Minutes)
Swedish massage is a classic Western massage based on the Eastern concepts of
anatomy and physiology, health and disease. The techniques of soft tissue
manipulation are valuable for improving circulation of blood and lymph, reducing
stress, relaxing muscles, and improving overall health. The massage is 50
minutes long; the client is undressed, but fully draped on a massage table. The
body is always covered except for the part being worked; this insures your
utmost comfort.
La Stone Therapy (50 Minutes)
Sometimes called hot stone massage, this treatment was developed over the last
few years by Tucson massage therapist Mary Hunnigan, who says it was channeled
to her from an American Indian guide. Using smooth dark stones heated in water,
the massage therapist strokes your oiled skin, and then rests the stones on key
areas, such as your palms and belly. Other stones beneath you press gently into
your body. Stones are also placed between your toes and on your eyelids. It’s
somewhere between a body treatment and a massage. This combination of the heat,
aromatherapy oils, and strokes make it special.
*Mind body benefits – Deeply relaxing, relieves stiffness, soreness, and
restores energy.
*You might like it if – you’re stressed and need to just let go, or you just
like to experiment with different body treatments.
Polarity: (50 Minutes)
Polarity therapy was developed by an American, Randolph Stone (1890-1981), who
spent his life exploring the role of energy in healing. Practitioners view
Polarity as both hands-on bodywork and a philosophy of lie. Although it grew out
of Stone’s studies in the United States, Europe and Asia, Polarity is mainly
associated with Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicine and philosophy. In
Polarity theory, health is considered a balance among energies described as
earth, fire, water and space. By contrast, imbalance is seen as the source of
physical and emotional distress.
Through bodywork – involving hands placed along the body’s energy meridians,
stretching and light rocking – the body’s own energy is brought into balance.
Polarity is good for specific symptoms because it treats them as imbalance in
the elements: too much earth, for example is felt as congestion or sadness, and
needs to be alleviated with air.
*Mind body benefits: recipients report feeling lighter and calmer.
*Your might like it if – you prefer to stay clothed for bodywork, like gentle,
non-invasive touch, or feel that standard massage does not bring relief for your
symptoms.
Acupressure (Shiatsu) (50 Minutes)
Often called “Acupuncture without needles”, Shiatsu is based on ancient Chinese
principles of energy (Ki, pronounced “chi”) balancing. Ki represents life force
and it is stored in meridians (pathways) throughout the body. The harmonious
flow of Ki along the meridians and within the organs is considered both the
cause and effect of good health. The therapist uses palming, stretching, range
of motion and finger pressure techniques to assist the person’s body to become
balanced, energized and/or relaxed. The client should wear comfortable clothing
(i.e. sweats, t-shirt, etc.)
