What is Massage Therapy?
Massage involves a manual application of pressure and movement to soft body tissues the skin, muscles, tendon, ligaments, and fascia
(membranes surrounding muscles). Massage is believed to increase blood circulation and flow of lymph (fluid from body tissues that
flows into the blood stream). It helps the body to heal itself by promoting the flow of blood and lymph, stimulating nerves,
conditioning the skin, and stretching and loosening muscles to keep them elastic. Massage also has a positive psychological effect.
When we are stressed, our breathing becomes more rapid and shallow, our hearts work harder and digestion slows down. Chronic stress
can influence a number of illnesses including migraines, depression, and hypertension. Massage therapy can help to relieve tension
and counteract the effects of stress on the body.

Shiatsu is a unique, non-invasive therapy designed to stimulate the body's inherent ability to heal itself. After treatment, most people
experience relief from their discomforts including relief from pain, increased flexibility, calmer mood as well as a clearer mind.
Many people find that deep, restful sleep comes more easily for several nights. A small percentage of people may feel tired or
