Not Just a Spa Massage
Massage for Freedom and Relief
Swedish Massage
Long, relaxing strokes and whole muscle group treatment. Increases blood flow, promotes relaxation and stress reduction, reduces muscle restriction.
Myofascial Release
A mixture of massage and stretching which softens and stretches the fascial layer under the skin, eliminating restriction, lengthening muscle fibers, and increasing pain-free range of motion.
Cupping
I use soft silicone cups to create a vacuum effect, dragging tissue up instead of pressing it down. Benefits include increased surface circulation and localized metabolic increase (that is, creating an inflammatory response for stagnant tissues), increasing muscle movement and reducing pain.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue work targets specific muscles with direct pressure or friction strokes to address muscle fibers deeper below the surface. Benefits are improved blood circulation and movement of adhered (knotted) muscle fibers. Deep Tissue Massage isn’t as relaxing during treatment as Swedish Massage, but can help with long-term pain and tension reduction and increased range of motion.
Trigger Point Therapy
This bodywork targets specific areas of the body which are known to cause pain or uncomfortable neurological sensation. Trigger points can feel like “knots”, however, active trigger points can create painful sensation which radiates away from the trigger point. TrP Therapy involves pressing in the node of the point, triggering the uncomfortable sensation until it subsides naturally. Benefits include relief from chronic pain and uncomfortable neurological sensations, increased functionality and range of motion when TrPs are deactivated.

“I leave my bodywork sessions with Michele feeling great. She intuitively knows the right pressure to use on my body.”

“It’s really hard to find a massage therapist who can give deep pressure in the places I need it, but Michele delivers. Every time I leave her table, I feel like I have a new back.”
Skyler A.
“I came to Michele with chronic neck and shoulder tension. Her massage style is gentle and relaxing, and she always has suggestions for me to take care of myself at home. Thanks to her I can go weeks without a headache!”
