What is Massage Therapy & Craniosacral Therapy?

Our Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) treat your body’s soft tissue (muscles, connective tissue, fascia, skin, ligaments and tendons) to alleviate tension, stress and pain. Our highly experienced RMTs utilize a variety of massage techniques and other related soft tissue treatments to relieve pain, reduce stress and improve movement and function.

Our therapists are trained in both relaxation and deep tissue release techniques as well as Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) and craniosacral therapy.  Through every phase of life, from prenatal support, through infant/pediatric concerns, to lymphatic relief, sport/injury recovery, concussion management to trauma recovery and mental health support... each treatment may vary depending on your therapeutic goals and individual needs. 

Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a hands-on healing technique which is performed by applying a gentle touch to the regulate the parasympathetic nervous system.  This technique promotes relaxation of the tissues surrounding the central nervous system which can aid in healing and overall wellness.
