Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is a slow and gentle combination of a few different hands-on techniques including gliding, kneading, and some traditional Russian strokes. It is the epitome of a relaxation massage.
Deep Tissue and Trigger Point
Deep Tissue massage uses slower strokes with firm pressure combined with Trigger Point Therapy. Trigger Point Therapy focuses on trigger points or "knots" in the muscle that can cause pain, numbness, tingling, as well as pain referral to other areas of the body.
Hot Stone MassageHot Stone massage are stones heated in approximately 120-degree water. They are then dried and oil is applied to the client's body as well as the stones to massage the client. Hot Stone massage is a light to moderate pressure. It is not only relaxing but the heat from the stones penetrate deep into the muscle giving you similar benefits to that which you get with Deep Tissue.
Prenatal MassagePrenatal massage has a very similar technique to the Swedish and Deep Tissue massage except that once the mother is showing the massage is done with a pregnancy pillow. This allows the expecting mother to lay face down without putting any pressure on her belly. A hydraulic table is used so when the mother is face up she is elevated in way that there is not too much weight from the baby compressing nerves and blood flow. There are some areas of the body that are contraindicated to work during pregnancy and are avoided during the treatment. Prenatal massage is typically recommended in the 2nd and 3rd trimester. If you receive massage or bodywork on a regular basis and you have spoken with your health care professional first we are comfortable practicing massage in the first trimester.
Cupping TherapyThere are several types of cups and applications. Push Massage Therapy uses plastic pump cups, silicon cups, and glass facial cups. The suction of the cups creates negative pressure. The lifting of the tissue helps break up adhesions in the muscles and fascia. It also brings in blood flow to congested and stagnant areas. Cupping aids in draining excessive fluids and toxins from the muscles. There are far too many uses benefits to list here but the benefits go on.
INFRARED SAUNAInfrared light therapy offers many stand-alone health benefits and pairs well with a variety of our services at Push Massage Therapy.
Sweating is the body’s natural way to heal and stay healthy. Infrared sauna therapy is beneficial for natural healing and prevention because of its ability to penetrate human tissue resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat. It is known to assist with detoxification, immunity, weight loss, heart health, muscle recovery, weight management and relaxation. Many sauna users experience relief from conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, and neck and back pain because it warms and relaxes joints and muscle tissue. Infrared heat is completely safe and healthy for all living things. It is the same heat used in hospitals to warm premature babies. SoloCarbon® heating technology, found exclusively in our Amplify sauna from Sunlighten, is the most proven, effective far infrared heater on the market. Combined with the full spectrum heaters included in the Amplify, this sauna session gives you the benefits of all three infrared wavelengths: near, mid and far.
