  • What is a Thai Massage?

    Thai massages combine the practice of massage, acupressure, and yoga where the massage therapist will gently manipulate the body to help increase flexibility and relaxation.

  • What is a Swedish massage?

    A Swedish massage uses gentle strokes, instead of intense pressure like deep tissue massages, to promote calmness and relaxation. 

  • Do hot stone massages hurt?

    No, the hot stones used during a hot stone massage are never hot enough to cause pain or burn your skin. The stones are heated in a controlled environment, resulting in the stones ranging between 110 and 130 degrees Fahrenheit. However, you should keep your personal pain tolerance in mind when scheduling and communicate with your massage therapist.

  • Is a deep tissue massage painful?

    Deep tissue massages are not painful, but you may experience soreness the day after. This is due to the focus on specific areas to release muscle tension.

  • What should I expect from foot reflexology?

    Foot reflexology is more than a massage as the practitioner will target specific areas on your feet to achieve the result to correct symptoms you are experiencing.
