Massage Treatments at
Tranquility LIFE Spa
& Hair Design, LLC
Massage Treatments are a type of therapy in which muscles and other soft tissues of the body are manipulated to improve health and well-being. Massage has been practiced as a healing therapy for centuries in nearly every culture in the world to help relieve muscle tension, reduce stress and evoke feelings of calmness. Massage affects the body as a whole and particularly influences the activity of the musculoskeletal, circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems.
Here are some of the types of Massage Therapy we offer.
Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage Treatments are designed to promote a sedative effect on our guests. They are great for beginners (people new to massage therapy) and those who have trouble falling asleep and/or staying asleep. Light effleurage stroking, friction and petrissage produce a calming effect over reflex areas and nervous systems which can help improve your general health. Sometimes our Massage Therapists will add a vibration technique, which helps to stimulate the circulatory system. The main purpose is to relieve tension and improve circulation.
- 30 minute session: this session can cover the entire body but is recommended for specific areas of the body (example: back and neck).
- 60 minute session: this session covers the entire body from head to toe except adbomen area unless the Massage Therapist feels it would benefit the individual.
Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic Massage Treatments are designed to promote a stimulating effect on our guests. They are great for someone who is looking to relieve tension and to create movement in areas in which our guest's muscles appear to be tight or knotted. This massage starts out light and goes into deep effleurage, friction, petrissage, tapotement, compression, vibration and range of motion of each joint area to create homeostasis (balance) in the entire body. You will feel very relaxed after this massage. You can get a 30 minute or 60 minute session at Tranquility.
Sports Massage
Sports Massage is designed for athletes, but it is useful for anybody with chronic pain, injury or range of motion issues. This massage is performed lighter on the body and of quicker motion in order to stimulate circulation and lymph fluids.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy is a soft touch therapy performed to release restrictions in the functioning of the central nervous system.
