Therapeutic massage is a general term that describes any type of massage modality—such as Swedish or Shiatsu—that helps relieve pain, reduce stress and work on a specific problem. People tend to assume it means deep tissue massages because that’s what we’re used to seeing in movies, but this is not always the case.
Deep tissue massage is great at breaking down scar tissue, but it may not be the right treatment for you on a particular day. Our awesome therapist will apply different techniques and varying levels of pressure to address your specific need—and sometimes that means using lighter strokes but working just as hard.
