Opt for a 60 or 90-minute session to address one primary area, or choose a 120-minute session to focus on two areas.
The treatment begins with both localized and full-body stretching to relax the tissues and identify areas of tension.
Broad techniques initiate the massage, followed by focused work incorporating Tui Na, Shiatsu, positional release, and deep tissue methods, targeting the areas identified through testing.
Meridian channels, acupressure points, and common trigger points are addressed for a balanced approach.
Optional IASTM and ice globe therapy complete this injury-focused session by reducing inflammation and dispelling excess heat.
