Massage Sessions
Whether you are looking for Swedish, Deep Tissue, or Sports therapy; allow my 30 minutes to help relieve focus areas that are giving you trouble. We will spend detailed time in select areas that are bothering you the most.
This massage is all about focusing on one or two specific problem areas you want addressed. It is short and sweet with all the added benefits of quality work.
TMJD also known as pain and compromised movement of the jaw joint and the surrounding muscles.
The temporomandibular joint or TMJ acts like a sliding hinge, connecting your jawbone to your skull. Dysfunction can lead to pain and discomfort.
This affects more people than most would expect. The jaw clenchers and teeth-grinders of the world are numerous, and you may even be one of them! TMJD is often involved with Neck pain, and it can also be a major factor with headaches, including migraines! Many people with TMJD do not realize that their jaw muscles are a source of their symptoms. And if they do, they do not know that their symptoms can often be treated successfully with specific massage techniques!

A 30 minute targeted stretch session that focuses on specific problem areas while using PNF, joint compression and/or traction to improve mobility, facilitate recovery and reduces aches and pains. Please wear comfortable workout clothes that don't inhibit Range of Motion.
A 30 minute session to assess ROM, muscle balance across joints, joint and overall body mechanics and any required test to rule out injury that would require the next level of care. A brief custom home exercise program will be provided based on the needs of the client.
Sports Therapy techniques consist of stretches and active involvement from clients to increase Range of Motion in the body due to tight muscles and past injuries. Coupled with Deep Tissue, Sports Therapy can be even more effective. Sports Therapy is highly suggested for athletes to prevent injuries.
Prenatal massage techniques are designed to help illuminate tight muscles that come about during pregnancy. Prenatal massages avoid certain trigger points, too much heat, and Rosemary essential oil (this is to be avoided during pregnancy). Enjoy massages throughout your pregnancy to fully enjoy the beauty of your pregnancy without all the tight muscles!
Deep tissue techniques are designed to relieve tight muscles from daily and athletic activities. This technique will take you to the edge of your comfort with maximum results.
Deep Tissue can be coupled with Sports Therapy for additional effectiveness.

Swedish massage techniques are designed to relax and rejuvinate tight muscles. Swedish massage increases blood flow while reducing blood pressure.
Ashiatsu is a technique used with the therapist's feet on the client. The therapist has bars overhead for stability and has additional certifications to insure your safety. Ashiatsu technique allows for deeper pressure, but over a broader surface (feet are generally bigger than hands/elbows) which allows for a more comfortable experience while still getting much needed work done.
This 60 Min Spa Day Massage offers a relaxing Swedish therapy with three different add-ons during the session. Hot Stones, Aromatherapy of your choice, and a Foot Scrub.
A therapeutic stretching session is going to address the Range of Motion in the muscles throughout the body. From head to toe we will use different methods of stretching both with and without assistance from the client. We will be able to assess where improvement can be made and spend extra time in those areas.

This recovery massage is focused on relieving sore muscles after a sporting event. Pressure will range from light to firm depending on how you are feeling. This session includes the use of techniques such as cupping, guasha, and heat/ice.
Myofascial Release is a whole body approach to treating your body. There is a web of fascia
(connective tissue) that covers your body from head to toe. This web is constantly moving and
changing. Once there has been trauma introduced into the system restrictions occur. The fluid
around the fascial web solidifies and over time pain and limited range of motion follow. This can
be a car accident, a surgery (minor or major), or trips and falls. Whether you are aware of it or
not your body “remembers” the trauma and stores this in the body tissues.
There are three components to this modality of bodywork. First, there is the structural
component where structural imbalances will be assessed and treated. This is where myofascial
work can become quite intense and deep (more pressure is applied to the restricted areas).
Sometimes this is necessary for the body to respond especially if the trauma is an old injury and
you have been dealing with this for a long period of time. Balancing the pelvis and working with
a frozen shoulder are good examples of this.
The second component is rebounding. Rebounding is rocking the body and creating a rhythm
in the body fluids (our bodies are approximately 70% water). The rocking motion is a great
assessment tool for additional restrictions that may not have been discovered in the initial
assessment (prior to your session is an assessment to determine where treatment will begin) as
well as a follow up to the structural work. The session can also end with rebounding as it can
be relaxing, calming and recommended for anyone highly stressed out and needs a way to be
able to relax. Note: if you suffer from motion sickness please make us aware prior to your
session.
The third and last component of myofascial release is unwinding. Unwinding can occur when
you are completely relaxed and have developed trust with your therapist. It involves being able
to let your body move and as your therapist I hold space for you as you unwind. Your body will
spontaneously move during an unwinding. My role during an unwinding is to keep you safe and
to direct you (if needed) to better enhance your session. From personal experience unwinding
can be very freeing and you will be surprised how light and energized you will feel afterwards.
These three components work together and it is the synergy of all three that promote a positive
response in your session. Clients report that they feel lighter and have more energy after a
myofascial release session.

A 60-minute upper and lower body therapeutic assisted stretch session that utilizes PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) and joint compression and traction techniques to downregulate the nervous system, improve mobility and accelerate the recovery process.

Richard is the best massage therapist I've been to in years! I've been dealing with chronic tension and headaches for a long time, and Richard has been an absolute game-changer. His skill, knowledge, and attention to detail make every session incredibly effective. He knows exactly how to target problem areas, and I always leave feeling so much better. Whether it's working out deep knots or helping me relax, Richard is hands-down one of the best massage therapists I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!
