Welcome to The Cottage! Some therapeutic massage services may require a referral. The classic Relaxation Swedish Spa Massage is what most people envision when planning professional massage services. The therapeutic goal is to melt away muscle tension and increase blood circulation throughout your body.
Swedish Massage is extremely relaxing as it warms the muscles, increases the blood, and improves flexibility in the body. Pressure is light to medium but may included firmer pressure to targeted areas. Similar to acupressure or acupuncture Reflexology professional massage focuses on specific points in the hands, feet, and ears to stimulate corresponding areas of the body. An extremely relaxing practice, our Head, Hand and Foot professional massages services focus on treating these pressure points.
These Dosha-specific massage services utilize ancient Indian practices that focus on the specific needs of the body. This massage helps to restore balance within your unique constitution.
We will start the treatment with a detailed history to determine your Dosha the best treatment course. In addition to specific massage techniques the choice of oils and application will vary depending on your assessment. Stones are heated and used with oils to soothe, warm, and massage your muscles.
This allows your body to relax and release tension and stress on a deeper level. In addition to stones, many of our add-on spa services such as LightStim hand and foot treatments, aromatherapy essential oils and more can also be incorporated into the treatment. The benefits of pregnancy massage are well established. Massage during pregnancy can help to ease stress, promote relaxation, and aid in muscle tension caused by shifting alignment. In addition to massage we use gentle stretching techniques to aid in common aches and pains associated with pregnancy.
