SW, in West Seattle. With over 26 years of licensed professional experience, our therapists will assess your needs so you receive the greatest benefit for injury treatment, chronic pain, and many medical conditions. Swedish Massage is extremely therapeutic as it relaxes muscles, decreases muscle toxins, increases oxygen levels in the blood, and improves flexibility in the body. Hot steam towels for the face and feet will be used in each treatment.
By treating the origin and insertion of specific muscles, this technique reaches deeper layers of muscles. It is used to break down adhesions knots and relieve pressure points throughout the body.
This massage can be beneficial for everyone, from competing athletes to those who sit or stand for extended periods of time. Massage supports the dynamic physical and emotional changes of pregnancy and is one of the safest and most effective ways to reduce stress, tension, pain and anxiety during pregnancy.
Benefits may include decreasing muscle tension, increasing venous and lymphatic circulation, reducing swelling, and normalizing blood pressure. Hand-chosen basalt river stones are heated and used with oils to sooth, warm, and massage your muscles. This allows your body to relax and release tension and stress.
I actually massage with the stones in hand and include deep tissue techniques when requested. This treatment is a must for those cold, grey wintery days to lighten your spirits and elevate your mood. This is a 90 minute treatment. Hot Stones may be "added on" to any treatment.
