A Unique Massage for a Unique You

Your body and its needs are unique and so should be your massage.  Exhale Healing Arts offers professional therapeutic massage - combining different modalities (listed below) - to customize a massage just for you.  
 
Massage Modalities:
 
       Swedish - manipulates the superficial layers of the muscles to:  
  • Increase blood circulation and oxygen flow
  • Reduce muscle soreness and stiffness
  • Stretch muscles, ligaments and tendons
  • Increase joint flexibility
  • Help restore muscle tone
  • Relax the body and mind

    Deep Tissue - focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles, connective tissue and fascia through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted and restricted areas.  It is common to feel sore for a day or two following the massage.  Common ailments addressed:
  • Chronic pain
  • Limited Range of Motion
  • Recovery from injuries (e.g. whiplash, falls, sports injury)
  • Repetitive strain injury (e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow)
  • Postural problems
  • Muscle tension or spasm

    ​Lymphatic Drainage Therapy - LDT is a gentle, hands-on technique that manually stimulates and sustains proper functioning of the human fluid system.  It helps the Lymphatic System to eliminate stagnant fluids (oedema), detoxify, regenerate tissues and stimulate the immune system.  For more information visit:http://www.chiklyinstitute.org/ldt/applications.htm

    Trigger Point Therapy - Trigger points are small, local contractions in muscle fibers (or "knots") that occur from trauma, overuse or malnourishment.  They create predictable pain patterns locally or, very often, in other parts of the body.  The pain usually isn't where the problem is--for example, a headache can originate from a contracted muscle fiber in the neck!  Trigger Point Therapy is helpful for an long list of ailments including headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, bursitis, sciatica, etc.

    Sports Massage - for maintenance/training, pre- and post-event and injury rehabilitation, Sports Massage incorporates stretching, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy and Lymphatic Drainage for every level of athlete.
     
    Reiki -  Reiki is a Japanese term for the concept of  "universal life force energy" and is a gentle yet powerful system of energy-based healing and spiritual growth practices.  Created in the early 1900's by Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist, practitioners of Reiki utilize meditation and non-invasive light touch to restore harmony and balance to oneself and others.  

    White Tantric Massage - incorporates therapeutic touch with energy work to clear blockages and restore andbalance the body's energy flow.  Work with the Energy Meridians, Chakras and the Aura clears and raises the body's vibrational level to release and transcend physical, emotional and spiritual blockages.  This massage is strictly therapeutic and professional.
