Everyone whom truly enjoys the benefits of a deep tissue/sports massage. ___________________________________________________________ For your Information… Chair Massage: Working the neck, shoulders, arms, upper & lower back. Works loose the knots of tension and eases stress. 15 – 30 minutes. __________________________________________________________ Sports/Deep Massage: Deep therapeutic massage applicable to all movement injuries, sports related or not.

Based on Egyptian and Chinese theory, over 6000 years old. Points on the feet correspond to specific body parts and that massage of these points can correct metabolic problems ___________________________________________________________ WHAT ARE THE THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF MASSAGE? Massage increases the circulation in the blood and lymph systems, thus carrying off harmful metabolic waste by-products. These accumulate in the cells of the muscle tissue from overwork, tension and/or fatigue. Increased nutrition and oxygen from the blood assists healing processes and heightens the body’s overall vitality. Some additional benefits include; 1) alleviating pain in sore muscle; 2) releasing tension, stress, and/or fatigue; 3) aiding in weight reduction; 4) increasing tone of skin and muscle tissue; 5) stimulation of nerve supply to virtually every cell and organ in the body. ___________________________________________________________ HOW LONG DOES A MASSAGE TAKE? A thorough treatment can last from one (1) to one and one-half hours (1½). This depends on the client. ___________________________________________________________
