All Charlotte Massage Packages below are "hands-on":
Therapeutic Massage- may consist of Swedish, Deep Tissue, and other massage elements that are designed to fit each client's specific needs.
Swedish Massage, the most common type of massage, leaves the body relaxed and rested. When performed correctly, it is very therapeutic. It increases flow of the circulatory and lymphatic systems, releases metabolic waste from the muscles, and helps relieve the body of unwanted discomfort and stress.
Deep Tissue Massage focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue and is especially helpful for tense and contracted areas such as sore shoulders, lower back tightness, and stiff necks. To do this, the massage therapist often uses direct deep pressure to help alleviate tension and stress in the body.
Sports Massage is designed to assure the health and well being of the athlete and to enhance athletic performance. Compared to classic Swedish massage, Sports Massage addresses more specific muscles related to a particular activity; and addresses and assists in treating and preventing injuries. Treatment typically consists of deeper pressure, stretching and ROM (range of movement) activity.
Pregnancy massage supports and nurtures the mother-to-be. Focusing on the requirements of the Mother-To-Be, pregnancy massage is a very gentle form of massage. The therapist blends techniques to provide relaxation and relief from low back stress and other pregnancy related discomfort. The therapist always works with an awareness of the special needs of the mother-to-be.
Hot Stone Massage uses heated basalt stones to provide deeper work with less pressure while relaxing and re-energizing the body. Each session is always customized to your needs and comfort level. The pressure can be as deep or light as feels good to you. The temperature of the stones can range from very warm (soothing and relaxing) to cool (refreshing and revitalizing) or a combination of the two depending on your needs.
