A convenient alternative for receiving treatment while remaining in an upright position. The chair is adjustable and maximizes patient comfort by aligning you ergonomically while still providing your therapist with access to your entire body. The recipient remains fully clothed during the massage; however, in specific cases where accessibility to certain muscles are indicated (such as Cupping or Gua Sha), the patient will be instructed to remove some layers of clothing. Don't feel like laying down for your treatment? Perhaps you're experiencing discomfort or mobility issues which limit your ability to get changed or hop in and out of a Massage Table. Simply put; same therapy, different position. That being said, with any form of massage therapy, there are certain contraindications to consider. Limiting conditions include: pregnancy, recent surgeries, skin conditions, etc. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to see if Chair Massage is right for you.

Cupping is a modality used in conjunction with massage to draw inflammation within your body to the surface layers. Think of it like vacuuming the nooks and crannies of your body where your circulation is sub-optimal. The visible red circles produced by cupping at the skin indicates how much inflammation (usually in the form of stagnant blood) was present inside the muscle. Dark red = more stagnation; generally, as the redness fades away, so does your muscle soreness. Duration of red circles will depend on: how much stagnant blood you have; whether we use static or dynamic cupping; your overall cardiovascular health. Following cupping, circulatory massage techniques help to sweep away and break down the visible redness drawn towards the skin. In my practice, we use a combination of static and dynamic cupping during treatment. Static cupping is used to draw deep inflammation to the surface. Dynamic cupping is used to draw superficial and mid-level inflammation to the surface.

Therapists use firm pressure and slow strokes to reach underlying muscles and fascia. This technique can break up scar tissue, improve blood circulation, and promote relaxation. Deep tissue massage is effective for relieving chronic pain, reducing muscle stiffness, and enhancing mobility, but it may cause temporary discomfort during the session.

Gua Sha / Cao Gio is a scraping technique of the body often performed with a lubricant (oil/lotion or balm/ointment) and a smooth rounded edge (including a spoon, jade stone, coin, buffalo horn, etc.) The instrument of choice repeatedly strokes over lubricated skin in patterns that follow muscle fibers. This repetition produces petechiae; red or purple dots on the superficial layers of the skin. The technique aims to release blood stasis (stagnant blood) within sore, stiff or overworked muscles to stimulate new oxygenated blood flow to the areas treated, thereby promoting local cellular healing and regeneration. Applying this technique to muscles that are deemed healthy/normal will likely not produce petechiae. The depth of redness can be used as an indicator to healing time. As the body's circulation picks up the stagnant blood, the petechiae fades. Contraindication: if you bruise easily; are taking blood thinners; or you don't want your skin discolored for a week or two.

Heat is often a soothing experience for the human body when the temperature is just right. This Hot Stone Massage therapy allows for the integration of heat into a relaxing experience. Hot Stone Massage is exactly as it sounds. Heated stones are placed on your body as well guided in hand by your therapist. These smooth and flat stones are made from volcanic basalt which retain heat very well. Hot stones are generally used to improve circulation and draw out stagnant blood to the superficial layers of your body; then, the massage itself helps to redistribute the blood towards your heart and kidneys for further usage. Hot Stones are typically viewed as a whole-body relaxing therapy and likely better off as a stand-alone category. That being said, it can also be used in a focused treatment which aims to progress the patient towards their goals regarding specific function.
