Corporate Services

The number of companies that offer massage to lower stress and improve productivity is growing every year. Offering on-site massages has been proven to reduce employee absenteeism, employee turnover, and increase overall morale.

Cupping Therapy

The use of cups on affected areas creates a localized pressure that acts as a vacuum to draw blood to the surface and facilitate healing. Experienced Sandstone Therapeutic Massage practitioners tailor treatments to achieve both therapeutic and stress relieving effects to harmonize the energy pathways of the body.

Deep Tissue Massage

A technique that provides relief for chronic aches and muscle tension that may include the neck and shoulders, upper and lower back and leg muscles. Deep tissue massage releases chronic muscle tension using deep pressure and slow strokes that go into the fascial layers of muscle tissue at the source of an injury.

Hot Stone Massage

With this relaxing technique heat is transferred to the body using specialized polished stones which are placed at key points on the body. Heat makes the muscles expand and become more pliable, allowing a professional therapist to get deep into the tissue to remove knots and eliminate tension.

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy

Sandstone Therapeutic Massage massage therapists assess the body’s innate healing systems and incorporate soothing and deliberate massage therapy techniques to flush toxins, waste and excess fluids that cause tissue inflammation. Commonly applied to the face, neck and joint areas, this treatment improves circulation and enhances the body’s immune system.

Myofascial Release

The practitioner applies moderate pressure to release tension and improve mobility due to injury in the muscles and surrounding tissue. Kneading style strokes stretch and loosen the fibrous bands within the nerves and joints that extends to provide relief to muscles and connective tissues.

Positional Release Therapy

Carried out by a trained and certified Sandstone Therapeutic Massage massage therapist, positional release moves both the muscle and joint simultaneously to achieve a full release of tension and restore pain-free movement. Positional release is an effective technique that restores joint mobility, relieves fascial tension and muscle spasms while addressing a range of soft tissue dysfunctions.

Reflexology

With its roots in acupuncture, reflexology is the application of pressure on precise points of the hands and feet to stimulate healing energy in corresponding parts in the body.
