Active Isolated Stretching
The Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) method of muscle lengthening and fascial release is a type of Athletic Stretching Technique that provides effective, dynamic, facilitated stretching of major muscle groups, but more importantly, AIS provides functional and physiological restoration of superficial and deep fascial planes.Over the past few decades, many experts have advocated that stretching should last up to 60 seconds. For years, this prolonged static stretching technique was the gold standard. However, prolonged static stretching decreases the blood flow within the tissue, creating localized ischemia and lactic acid buildup. This can potentially cause irritation or injury of local muscular, tendinous, lymphatic, as well as neural tissues, similar to the effects and consequences of trauma and overuse syndromes.

Deep Tissue Massage
Techniques that utilize deep-tissue/deep-muscle massage are administered to affect the sub-layer of musculature and fascia. These techniques require advanced training and a thorough understanding of anatomy and physiology. The muscles must be relaxed to perform a deep-tissue massage effectively. Otherwise, tight surface muscles prevent the practitioner from reaching the deeper musculature. It helps with chronic muscular pain and injury rehabilitation and reduces inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendinitis.

Massage & Bodywork
The primary focus of the typical massage is to promote relaxation and improve the client’s well being. Bodywork is using a variety/combination of therapeutic modalities for manipulating body structure and restoring health. A significant difference is that during a typical massage, you will be feeling very relaxed and comfortable for the majority of the session, with short term lasting affects. During a bodywork session there may be some discomfort; your massage therapist will communicate to ensure it stays in your comfort zone. Bodywork is used if you are; experiencing discomfort (chronic/acute, physical/mental), difficulties with range of motion, looking to increase sports and everyday function. The great thing is that there is a longer lasting extreme feeling of relaxation and relief when the body is restored and balanced.Common Injuries/Conditions Treated With Massage•Plantar Fasciitis•Hip-Pelvis Balance & Decompression•Compartment Syndrome of the Leg•Knee Treatment (incl.

Myofascial Release
Myofascial release is the three-dimensional application of sustained pressure and movement into the fascial system in order to eliminate fascial restrictions and facilitate the emergence of emotional patterns and belief systems that are no longer relevant or are impeding progress. First, an assessment is made by visually analyzing the human frame, followed by the palpation of the tissue texture of various fascial layers. Upon locating an area of fascial tension, gentle pressure is applied in the direction of the restriction. Myofascial release is an effective therapeutic approach in the relief of cervical pain, back pain, fibromyalgia, scoliosis, neurological dysfunction, restriction of motion, chronic pain, and headaches.
Neuromuscular (Trigger Point) Therapy
Trigger points are hyper-irritated areas in the muscle that often refer pain to other areas of the body. These spots are commonly referred to as knots. Releasing these pressure points reduce pain referral to other areas in the body. Balancing the body structurally reduces tension and pain naturally throughout the body.
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Stretching
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a more advanced form of flexibility training that involves both the stretching and contraction of the muscle group being targeted.PNF stretching was originally developed as a form of rehabilitation, and to that effect, it is very effective. It is also excellent for targeting specific muscle groups, and as well as increasing flexibility, it also improves muscular strength.
Sports Massage
Sports massage focuses on improving performance and everyday function. A combination of massage and stretching is used to relieve tension and improve flexibility/range of motion. This is great for injury prevention, eliminating/reducing chronic pain, and recovery from fatigue/over training. This type of bodywork reduces recovery time, allowing you to get back to training faster and more efficiently. These sessions are designed specifically to the type of sport or activities in your life.

Excellent! My husband recently got a massage here, and they were so incredibly professional and the massage therapist knew exactly what she was doing. Her name is Laurea. We highly recommend and he will be going back soon!

This was my third time here. The first time I had a great massage from Louis. The second time I had a horrible experience from someone else who doesn’t seem to be working here anymore. So I decided to take a chance and I’m glad I did as I had a great massage from Abiy.

I went here because I am a stenographic court reporter and do a lot of repetitive movements. Because my job is tied to when people speak, I don’t always get to break or pause when I want to. I overdid it one day and wasn’t recovering properly, so I researched places near me that had experience with injuries and other medically adjacent massage. I picked the soonest day I could attend in the morning. Thang had a free appointment spot. He is really good at his job! I was worried I would feel uncomfortable because I have never gotten a professional massage before. But I didn’t! He made me feel totally normal. My arms felt much much much looser and the next day, I felt amazing. I had this weird pain in my elbow when I went in and I literally felt the pain dissolve during my appointment. It was like magic. Will be back. Highly recommend Thang for anyone who works a lot with their hands, e.g. pianists, people producing tons of writing, chronic over-texters, and the like. 🙂

I had a great experience with Louie as my masseuse. He had a detailed conversation with me before hand about my needs. I have severe neck and shoulder pain, and his technique on that area was phenomenal. He took his time and checked in periodically to make sure the session was going well. He made great conversation, and explained different things I can do to improve the curvature on my neck and to help with the cause of my neck/shoulder pain. I did 60mins and definitely will come back for a longer session. He also made it clear that it’s helpful to voice my needs, I can be shy and it was useful to hear that. I have a larger chest, so the face cradle adjustment feature was awesome! It lifted high enough to take some pressure off my chest. I also really liked the hotpad he put around my neck when I lay on my back, it really helped with the discomfort. Professional, courteous, thoughtful, kind, very clean space. Highly recommend them!

Gabe was freaking AMAZING!! On a business trip from Oklahoma, woke up with a severe knot in my back. Decided to try this place out. He worked out the knots as well as some other tight knots that I had been dealing with forever. He took the time to listen to my issues and understand what I needed for my treatment. I truly can say that was the best massage I have ever experienced!
