Descriptions of Massage Modalities

Deep Tissue Massage - Slow strokes and deep pressure applied to contracted areas, muscles, tendons, fascia, to reduce chronic patterns of tension in the body.  Focuses on deeper layers of muscle tissue.  Friction and compressions break down adhesions.

Swedish and Classic Western Massage -  Long strokes, petrissage, friction, joint movements, light stretches and tapotement.  Focuses on the more superficial muscle layers.  Some of the benefits include stress reduction, improved circulation, and relaxation.  This is the style of massage we use for pregnancy massage.
 
Sports and Remedial Massage Techniques - The basic techniques in sports massage are similar to basic techniques in deep tissue massage.  Frictioning, broad and specific, is often used to break down adhesions and soften scar tissue making muscles more pliable and less prone to injury.  Compressions and stretching are also used.  The goal may be recovery from strenuous activities or injury, or to maintain flexibility and conditioning.
