No liability will be held on therapist for failure to disclose any health concerns. Massage therapists are not qualified to perform any spinal or skeletal adjustments.

In general, massage is given while you are unclothed. However, you may choose to wear underwear. You will be covered with a sheet throughout your entire session, and only the area being worked on will be exposed. This is your massage and you should be as comfortable as possible. Feel free to ask your therapist any questions before, during, or after the session. Your therapist is a highly trained professional and will be happy to make you feel informed and comfortable. Relax and focus on your breathing, which will also help your muscles relax so you can get the most out of your massage session. We are happy you chose us for assistance in your healing journey and are looking forward to helping you in any way we can! -
This massage session is targeted to specifically treat symptoms of TMJ (Temporomandibular joint) dysfunction, or other issues associated with pain and tension in the jaw area. The temporomandibular joint is located at the junction of your jaw and temple and is put under a lot of stress from chewing, talking, teeth grinding and general stress.
TMJ dysfunction can cause many uncomfortable issues such as headaches, a tight or painful jaw area or jaw popping. Many of these issues can be relieved by massaging the small muscles directly connected to the jaw joint.
In this session we work the upper back, neck and shoulders first. Then we will work with the jaw and related muscles that are around the cheek, neck and temple area.
We use a massage stone to carefully perform sliding strokes along the cheek and jaw line to release tension in the underlying muscles. Small cupping tools are also used in a sliding motion across the jaw area to aid with releasing tension in the cheek and jaw muscles.
We then take a gloved hand and work the deeper muscles of the jaw inside the mouth, that are located behind the top and bottom molars. Stretching techniques of the cheeks or ears may be used. *Disclaimer: We are not diagnosing TMJ dysfunction, or claiming to resolve it. This massage is intended to alleviate symptoms of this dysfunction.

The heat within the stones relaxes the muscles, making them more pliable. This allows your massage therapist to work deeper muscles, without having to use very deep pressure. Hot stones feel calming and soothing to the body, and are glided along large muscle groups and sometimes placed to rest in certain areas to efficiently help release tough tension. This service is sure to leave you feeling deeply relaxed by melting away your tension.

Relieve the aches and pains that come along with pregnancy with our prenatal massage. Our skilled therapists utilize gentle and soothing techniques specifically tailored for expectant mothers, promoting overall well-being and relieving tension. In our prenatal massage, the client is positioned on their back or side, using the appropriate cushions to ensure pregnancy related pressure areas are relieved. Client also has the option to lie face down in our comfortable pregnancy wedge that is designed to allow space for the belly and chest, while giving them the opportunity to lay on their stomach so the back of the body can be massaged.
Our prenatal massage can be targeted towards any of your main trouble areas like low back, legs or shoulders, while also providing full body relaxation and stress relief. Prenatal massage is a wonderful form of self-care during this special time.
*Note - Our expertly trained staff is happy to offer prenatal massage at any point during pregnancy. Some mothers choose to not receive prenatal massage in their first trimester. There is not significant data to prove that this it is unsafe to receive prenatal massage during this time.
