Choose this service option if you're a first-time client or haven't had a massage in over 12 months at our clinic.

During your first visit, a comprehensive clinical assessment will be conducted to determine if there are any structural or mechanical injuries and/or dysfunction present. This assessment is crucial in identifying the underlying physical structures that may be causing pain or dysfunction.

The initial assessment and client interview typically require approximately 15-20 minutes of your scheduled appointment time. For instance, if you booked a 60-minute massage, then 15 minutes of that time will be allocated to the assessment. 

It is advisable to book additional time for your first visit to ensure that you receive the full hands-on treatment time that you are looking to receive. This allows for a thorough evaluation and customized treatment plan to address your specific needs effectively.

Deep tissue massage involves the skilled application of sustained and steady pressure to target the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues. This technique is specifically designed to reduce muscle tension, release scar tissue, and improve range of motion.

By targeting the root causes of chronic musculoskeletal injuries and conditions, deep tissue massage helps to alleviate pain and tension. The focused pressure applied during the massage works to release knots, trigger points, and tightness in the muscles, providing relief from discomfort and promoting overall physical well-being.

Sports massage is a specialized technique tailored to focus on area-specific rehabilitation. This brief but effective treatment is performed with the client’s clothes on, and it is advised to wear loose-fitting and comfortable clothing. The session involves joint mobilizations, integrated stretching techniques, and basic lymphatic drainage techniques to provide consistency in training as well as prevent injury.

Through its targeted approach, sports massage aims to reduce inflammation, optimize lymphatic circulation, and support the body's innate healing processes by focusing on the affected areas.

Cupping Massage is an alternative therapy technique that utilizes negative pressure to create a vacuum, which lifts the skin into plastic cups, thereby separating the fascia layers. Through this vacuum pressure, cupping therapy facilitates the breakdown of damaged tissue, promoting healing and accelerating the recovery process. 

FYI: Cupping therapy is used in conjunction with massage therapy and is used for approximately 5-15 minutes.

The ergonomic design of the instruments ensures optimal effectiveness in addressing fascial restrictions, scar tissue, and adhesions.

Our clinic is proud to offer this specialized service, provided by a therapist with advanced training in TMJ massage therapies®. This expertise ensures a comprehensive and effective approach to managing TMJ dysfunction, tailored to meet individual needs.

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunction refers to a range of conditions affecting the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, leading to symptoms such as jaw pain, headaches, and facial discomfort. These issues can arise from various factors, including stress-induced jaw clenching, teeth grinding, or misalignment of the jaw.

TMJ massage therapy offers a non-invasive approach to alleviate these symptoms. By employing techniques like myofascial release, remedial massage, trigger point therapy, and cranial sacral therapy, this treatment aims to:

• Relieve jaw tension
• Reduce jaw pain
• Alleviate headaches
• Enhance circulation
• Improve jaw mobility

These benefits contribute to a significant reduction in discomfort and an improvement in overall well-being.

Please be aware that obtaining special consent is mandatory before a TMJ massage can be initiated. To facilitate this, a consent form will be promptly emailed to you 24-hours before your appointment.

Infant massage is a gentle and rhythmic massage technique. It is a specialized form of touch therapy designed for infants aged 0-2 years.

The calming effects of massage often extend to sleep patterns, potentially assisting in the establishment of more regular and restful sleep for the infant.

FYI: Parents/guardians are invited to join the session. Your massage therapist will provide instructions on techniques that you can practice at home with your precious little one.
