The Gold Standard Of Massage

 Massage therapy is a manual technique rooted in the art of touch, employed to alleviate physical discomfort and promote relaxation. It involves manipulating soft tissues of the body through various strokes, kneading, and rhythmic pressure application. This practice, often performed by trained professionals, aims to improve blood circulation, reduce muscle tension, and alleviate stress. The therapist's skilled hands work to target specific areas of tension, fostering a sense of rejuvenation and well-being. Massage serves as a holistic approach, not only addressing physical discomfort but also contributing to mental tranquility. Its soothing effects make it a popular choice for individuals seeking relief from the demands of modern life.  

Generally, the session starts with the client disrobing completely with draping or wearing only undergarments and lying face down on a padded table under a sheet. The therapist will begin with the back and shoulders before moving down the body. Once the client has flipped over about mid-way through the session time, the therapist works back up the body, usually ending with neck and shoulders and sometimes the scalp. Men may also receive a pectoral massage.

If there is a problem area that needs extra attention, such as a sore back or tight shoulders, request that the therapist spend more time focused on those trouble spots but the trade-off may be less time spent on other areas of the body. To ensure the full treatment of every body part, as well as a focus on specific issues, make an appointment for a longer session time.

We offer a full-body massage in a wide variety of specialized formats. 

Among the most popular is the Swedish massage, which focuses on warming the muscle tissue to releasing tension and breaking up muscle "knots." 

A deep tissue massage mimics many of the same movements as a Swedish massage but with higher intensity pressure. 

 Trigger point massage is a therapeutic technique aiming to alleviate muscle pain and tension by applying pressure to specific trigger points, promoting relaxation and improved muscle function.  

 Chair massage is a brief, focused massage technique performed on a specially designed chair, targeting tension in the back, neck, shoulders, and arms, promoting relaxation and stress relief. 

We will always customize our services to your individual needs, making it a versatile therapy that aids in managing stress, improving sleep quality, and fostering an overall sense of rejuvenation and balance. 

We will never be one of those  bogus "spas" that operate like the old massage parlors in the United States. Those that may offer illegal sexual contact or a "happy ending" during the session. Not only will we not tolerate (nor will you ever experience) any sexual comments, suggestions, or innuendo, we will end your session if any occurs.

At Lend A Hand Wellness, you can expect a professional quality massage every time.
