Mostly relaxation with a concentration on tension and working out your "knots." Swedish strokes are used to release chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow and deep finger pressure on affected areas. It is called "deep tissue" because it also focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue.
Widely known as sports or regional massage. This technique utilizes specific strokes with deeper pressure to address specific pathologies, such as but not limited to: TMJ disease, headaches, Shin splints, sciatica, and the like.(See complete pathology listing... )
The use of hot stones in a therapeutic massage session allows the therapist to reach the deepest layers of each muscle and to melt away easily all tension in the soft tissues – muscles, tendons, ligaments - of the body.
This centuries-old holistic healing technique, first used in India dating back 5000 years, is
employed by Enlightened Hands to benefit clients with chronic pain. This deep healing therapy leaves those in pain completely relaxed and greatly relieved.
Christina believes that this added therapy, combined with her special blend of deep tissue massage, intuition, innovation, attention to detail, and knowledge of human pathology as it pertains to massage, will produce nothing short of a deep healing experience for anyone needing that level of relief.
For those interested simply in a relaxation massage and who just want to give hot stones a try .. IT’S THE BEST!
