Massage Types
- Swedish Massage Swedish massage, more commonly referred to as relaxation massage, is focused on increasing relaxation and reducing stress. Swedish massage can be helpful with reducing pain, joint stiffness and increasing circulation. Kneading Wellness recommends this massage type for new clients as it is one of the more commonly requested for its gentle relaxing nature.
- Deep Tissue Massage Deep Tissue massage allows access to the deeper layers of the soft tissue. This massage type begins gently and eases into a more firm, higher pressure massage. Kneading Wellness does not recommend this type of massage on your first visit as some may have an adverse reaction.
- Injury Treatment Massage Injury treatment massage is just that, for treating injuries. Sometimes deemed medically necessary, this type of massage has been shown to be very beneficial in aiding in the healing of damaged muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue. It has also been shown to relieve pain associated with old and / or new injuries.
- Pregnancy Massage Pregnancy massage can aid in relieving discomfort associated with such problems as back pain, carpal tunnel, aching joints and sore feet. Decreasing stress as well as blood pressure can benefit both the mother and the baby.
- Child Massage Children suffer from the same ailments as adults. They are affected by injuries and stress in much the same ways, because of this they can be treated in the same manner and will experience all of the benefits.
- Senior Massage Seniors, perhaps most of all, will benefit from Swedish massage. Many of the common ailments experienced with aging can be relieved through massage. Circulation issues, muscle stiffness as well as general aches and pains are only a few of the problems that can be alleviated.
- Aromatherapy massage Aromatherapy massage utilizes essential oils mixed into a base of lotion, oil or cream and applied to problem areas. Essential oils offer many benefits such as, stress relief, muscle relaxation, analgesic (pain relief), antidepressant and antispasmodic. Aromatherapy massage is very highly recommended by Kneading Wellness. Many consider this to be a widely un-tapped resource of health care.
