About massage

Massage therapy uses hands-on pressure and movement on the muscles and soft tissue. Styles range from gentle Swedish and lymphatic drainage to deep tissue, sports, Thai, shiatsu and Hawaiian lomilomi.

A typical session is 60 or 90 minutes. You'll fill in a short health form, talk about pressure and focus areas, then undress to your comfort level under a sheet. A good therapist checks in on pressure and you can ask for changes at any time.
