WHAT IT IS

WHAT IT DOES

Swedish

The most common form of massage, it involves light, fast movement along the muscle surface.

Improves circulation and helps you relax, If you just want to zone out for an hour, this is the massage for you.

Deep Tissue

Similar to Swedish but more intense, reaching much deeper into your muscles and joints.

Relieves aches and soreness. Ideal if you want to relax and yet have nagging injuries such as lower back pain.

Shiatsu

A form of Japanese healing hitting pressure points similar to those used in acupuncture.

Improves energy flow and eliminates stress. Try it if you’re curious about acupuncture but scared of needles.

Thai

Imagine lying on a mat while a therapist stretches key joints, such as the shoulders and hips.

Enhances flexibility. Rather than being relaxing, Thai massage is more like a strenuous yoga session.

Hot Stone

Just like it sounds: Therapists rub smooth, flat, heated stones all over your body.

Good for anyone who’s touch-sensitive or doesn’t enjoy the kneading motion of regular massage.
