Massage Therapy

With five rooms to relax and renew, your appointment to unwind is just a phone call away. Our massage therapists are licensed and qualified to perform a variety of massages.

The benefits of massage are many. Skillful manipulation of muscles assists the circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid, stimulates the organs of digestion and improves the performance of the lungs and skin. As the muscles improve in tone, so do the nerves that supply them, right back to the spinal cord and the brain. Most people find massage increases awareness of the body, raising levels of energy and leading to an enhanced feeling of well-being. Massage can be used to help preserve health and modify illness.

Types of Massage

Aromatherapy:

Use of essential oils to reduce stress and tension, refresh and invigorate the body, soothe emotions, and clear the mind.
Essential oils are used in conjunction with other appropriate techniques, such as massage or reflexology. The essential oil is absorbed through the skin and into the body to affect physiological change. When inhaled the aroma directly affects the limbic area of the brain that is related to emotions and memories.
