Theradeep

Our exclusive therapeutic massage therapy and accompanying massage oils are recommended for those that have chronic pain or suffer from fibromyalgia, arthritis, shoulder pain, backaches and headaches. A renewing therapy that hones your level of pressure, with therapeutic flow that allows for blood circulation, embodiment and relief of pain, relaxing and easing muscle tension with targeted focus for rehabilitating injuries.

Theradeep Therapy focuses on the different layers of tissue (muscle, tendons and fascia, trigger points, working to relax, lengthen, and release strain patterns within them so that the body’s posture can realign itself.  Physical and emotional traumas can tighten and stiffen these tissues.  When this happens, the body moves out of a state of natural alignment and loses its flexibility and gravitational balance.  Working Theradeeply does not necessarily mean applying lots of pressure.  The techniques used in Theradeep therapeutic massage are also applied more slowly, so as to avoid causing the recipient discomfort when working deeply into the muscle and connective tissue, as well as allowing the nervous system to integrate the work.
