Foot Massage: Foot massage improves circulation, stimulates muscles, reduces tension, and often eases pain. If you've been walking the streets of New Orleans all day, went on a tour, or walk up and down the vendors aisles at the Convention Center, you are in need of a restful and rejuvenating foot massage.
A foot massage is used on the muscles located around the front and back of the feet. Techniques such as acupressure, frictions, skin rolling and trigger pointing are used to help treat chronic pain as in plantar fasciaitis, or acute pain if your feet are just very sore from walking, or post-surgery and scarring.
During a session, your feet will soak in an Mineral salt warm (or cold) water solution to start the relaxation process, then massaged to relieve soreness, and wrapped in warm towels infused with essential oils. During a mobile session, an natural exfoliant foot cream and natural moisturizer will replace the Mineral Salt soak.

Above and beyond foot massage? Foot Reflexology.
Foot Reflexology
is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body.
According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.

A facelift massage is a treatment that focuses on your facial fascia, the layer right under your skin of the face. The massage stimulates the blood flow, helps to remove toxins, release tension and reduce wrinkles and fine lines with micro-sculpting techniques. It is an all-natural and holistic approach to saving your youth for years.
The natural facelift massage uses slide and lift movements. This lifts and tones the muscles, while sweeping and smoothing techniques iron out wrinkles. These techniques loosen clamped muscles giving a softer appearance and, in just a few sessions, help achieve more defined cheekbones and jawline.
Included in the session as a FREE BONUS is my FREE AI Skin Assessment Tool we can use to get to know your skin very accurately with free information on how to age gracefully.

Traditional deep tissue massage techniques rely on intense hand, elbow, or forearm pressure for this purpose; Ashiatsu instead uses its broad surface area therapist's feet as the medium to distribute pressure more evenly, thereby decreasing discomfort while targeting deeper muscle layers effectively.
Ashiatsu massage can deliver up to three times more pressure, but without the soreness. In fact, Ashiatsu massage actually feels overall much gentler than other kinds, but with the enhanced benefit of going much deeper.

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body.
Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries.
Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.

Myofascial release is a form of soft tissue therapy intended to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and rebalance the entire body.
It does this by using massage techniques to stretch the fascia and release the bonds that exist between the fascia, muscles and bones. Fascia is the connective tissue that connects and covers all muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Direct myofascial release is sometimes known as deep tissue work. Indirect release applies light pressure and gently stretches the fascia; this allows for increased blood circulation and relief from pain.
What does it feel like when fascia releases?
The first sensation you'll get is a springing give that feels like a release. This is the tissue's elastic component giving way, which means you stop there, you won't see a long-term difference right away because it takes time to get deeper into the more plastic part of the tissue.

Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics.
Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates.
Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function.

Cupping therapy is an ancient healing technique that some people use to ease pain. A provider places cups on your back, stomach, arms, legs or other parts of your body. A vacuum or suction force inside the cup pulls your skin upward.
Cupping therapy is a form of traditional medicine that originated in China and West Asia. People have practiced this method for thousands of years.
Cupping uses suction to draw blood to or away from specific areas of your body. People mostly use cupping to relieve conditions that cause pain. Some people say it also helps with chronic (ongoing) health issues. Cupping may ease symptoms of:
Suction from cupping draws fluid into the treated area. This suction force expands and breaks open tiny blood vessels (capillaries) under your skin. Your body replenishes the cupped areas with healthier blood flow and stimulates proper and normal healing at a cellular level. Because of this effect, some people think that cupping releases toxins.
The suction force from cupping breaks open tiny blood vessels called capillaries under your skin. You’ll have red, round cupping therapy marks that should fade in a week or two. Although these marks will look like bruises, they’re not true bruises that injure muscle fibers.
Cupping shouldn’t cause pain, though you may experience some skin tightness during the procedure. After cupping therapy, you may feel bruised and slightly sore, but you shouldn’t have severe discomfort.
