Massage is one of the oldest
healing practices known to man.
And still in use... For a good reason!
At the muscle shop we know every set of muscles is
different. Everyones life calls for uniques movements and
actions. A scripted routine massage will not work! We tailor each
session to your bodies needs. Our experience is in working with
people who use their muscles. Such as athletes, laborers, anyone
with a demanding job or who has to deal with stress. That's
everyone! The theraputic techniques used will invigorate you,
allow you to relax and of course maintain your ever so important
muscles.
Your massage session will be personalized for you.
The following are some Massage Techniques that can be integrated
into your massage:
Swedish Massage
Relaxes muscles, stimulates the nervous
system, encourages circulation, relieves pain and
soreness, increases flexibility and range of motion and
feels SO good! Just about every massage will incorporate Swedish.
Many just build and expound on the tried and true theories and
methods developed in Swedish. It's the base from which we
build on. Swedish Massage can be all that you desire or need. Or
as needed we'll throw in one or more of the following that
will best benefit you.
Deep Tissue
Incorporates techniques for reaching the deep muscles within your
body. Such as muscles within your abdomin, under your shoulder
blade, collar bone, or hidden under over laying muscles. This
also often includes a more concentrated and penetrating massage
on specific muscles, focusing in on local areas of the
body. Deep tissue can include a deeper pressure as
well. This may be used on areas needing special attention.
Again all this will be adjusted to fit you.
Neuromuscular or Neuro-Muscular A very
effective techniques used to get those stubborn muscles to relax.
Excellent way of working out knots. This involves the
client (you) engaging the muscle along with a focused
pressure to encourage the muscle to return to a healthy relaxed
state. You will get amazing results!
Assisted Stretching or Passive
Stretching
You can only stretch so much on your own. Stretching is a great
way of preventing injury and a must for anyone involved in
regular physical activity or who has a job demanding physical
exertion. The active release methods used can be incorporated
into massage or you can dedicate time from your session to
passive stretching. Some gyms have been known to charge 250
dollars for an hour session! Crazy right.
