Star Quality Massage incorporates all the below techniques into one great “professional” 60, 75, 90, or 120 minutes session.
Deep Tissue
Massage designed to reach the deep portions of thick muscles, specifically the individual muscle fibers. Using deep muscle compression and friction along the grain of the muscle, it’s purpose is to un-stick the fibers of the muscles and release both toxins and deeply held patterns of tension.
Swedish
Swedish massage is now known as “Traditional” massage. Swedish massage includes long gliding strokes, kneading, friction, tapping, and shaking motions. It is effective for most ailments, because massaging of the skin, the body’s largest organ, sets up a chain reaction that produces a positive effect on all layers and systems of the body. This massage technique affects the nerves, muscles, glands, and circulation, and promotes health and well being for all who need this.
Sports
This special form of massage is typically used before, during and after athletic events to prepare the athlete for peak perfomance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility (stretching) and to prevent injuries. Depending on the needs of the athlete, a variety of techniques are used including classic Swedish strokes, cross-fiber friction, pressure-point work, and joint mobilization. This technique is used alot with those in the “dancer” profession, too.
*Please Note: All Massage is considered a Sensual Experience, and the Sensuality comes from within the energy and the touch and skill of the massage therapist .
