Traditionally, massage is a combination of learned techniques a therapist learns while in school and incorporates in their massage session. A therapeutic, relaxation massage is commonly defined as a Swedish massage. The massage therapist uses effleurage, petrissage, and compression techniques to relax the muscles, and release muscle tension.

Reflexology

Reflexology can be defined as a specific massage-like technique applied to the feet. When these techniques are applied with intense enough pressure they provoke an action potential. An action potential is a self-regenerating wave of electrochemical activity that allows nerve cells to carry a signal over a distance. When action potentials (also known as nerve impulses or spikes) occurs in the body through pressure, many of the body structures are affected by this stimulation including nerves, muscles, the central nervous system, organs, and glands. Reflexology is healing through deep relaxation or stimulation that allows the body to initiate its own healing mechanism. 40 ($55) or 50 minutes ($65) sessions available and also a plantar fasciitis relief treatment.

The outcome is rehydration, oxygenation and blood flow begin to take place allowing fascia to return to a healthier state.
