Swedish massage is one of the most common and well-known massage techniques, Swedish massage is a vigorous system of treatment designed to energize the body by stimulating circulation.

Swedish massage uses a combination of kneading, rolling, vibrational, percussive and tapping movements with the application of cream or oil to reduce friction on the skin.

The many benefits of Swedish massage may include generalized relaxation, stress reduction, improved circulation, and reduced swelling from injury.

Although Swedish massage is a very relaxing and comfortable massage it is not deep and pressure ranges from light to moderate.

Athletes and sports enthusiasts get great benefits from neuromuscular bodywork. For example this bodywork can restore range-of-motion (ROM) to the shoulder-arm complex allowing for better sports performance. Perfect for avid tennis and golf players.

• If you want to reduce stress and/or pain and aches or improve your range-of-motion you will need to actively participate in your therapy. By following my instructions you will be moving your body (arms, legs etc.) while I work deep to stretch your muscles and tendons. This is a very rewarding experience and my clients love it!

Ask me about the results that I've had with my previous clients.

This technique is the most popular treatment involving a mixture of Swedish massage therapy and neuromuscular therapy in order to address specific areas of pain and accumulated tension.

The treatment involves focusing on relaxation along with gaining the benefits of releasing deep hyper contracted muscular tissue.

Typically, the majority of clients have complaints of neck pain, shoulder pain, lower back pain or headaches which will be specifically addressed during this therapy session.

I can relieve your tight aching muscles of the neck, shoulders and back without the need to dress down like in a table massage. 30-minutes usually does the job. Deep penetration of hypertonic muscles and trigger points are possible using this technique. I offer this service at my office and in your location.

For on site corporate massage it is customary to work on as many employees as possible. This massage is a 10 to 20 minute procedure that uses acupressure massage to the muscles of the neck, shoulders, arms, hands and back. Usually performed weekly at your place of employment or at conferences, conventions and other events.

Performed on-site, the client remains fully clothed seated in a specially designed massage chair while I work the upper body - head, neck, . No oils or lotions are used.

The benefits are improved mental well-being, reduced stress, reduced muscular tension, reduced aches and pains, reduced hypertension, enhances mental clarity and alertness and increases creativity.

The person receiving the massage sits comfortably, fully clothed, on a specially designed portable massage chair. The therapist uses a variety of massage techniques to ease tension and stress, helping the client to achieve a relaxed but alert mental state.

By incorporating a regular chair massage clients find greater production through relaxation that actually energizes the body. Fatigue is eased and vitality returns. Production at work is best when your employees feel their best! Give your employees the treatment they deserve.

The MyoKinesthetic™ System goes after the cause of your pain, which is the nervous system.

Treatments are performed by an LMT and certified Myokinesthetic System Therapist using a treatment protocol developed by Dr. Mike Uriarte, DC. of Shawnee Mission KS.

The treatments are performed without lotions or oils. The client may remain fully clothed or dressed down. This technique is an interactive massage therapy treatment which calls on the client to move muscles (move arms, legs, neck, head, feet, hands, fingers, toes etc.) in a specific way as the musles are stimulated by the therapist. This system reduces and removes pain (headaches too) in about 10-25 minutes depending on the nerve source.

Myokinesthetic System Therapy is Specific and gets consistent repeatable results.

In my years of research as a Certified Personal Trainer and Licensed Massage Therapist I have discovered, and am continuing to improve on a new concept of specific SPORTS MASSAGE therapy techniques that are administered during and after strength training sessions. The results are improved muscle toning, an increase in strength and visual muscle definition improvement.

Muscle recovery time is reduced and delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) is reduced.

Combined with strength training, proper nutrition and rest, AMTET results in DRAMATIC muscle definition. It shows!

Those who may benefit from AMTET are:
• People who have been working out for months and are not seeing much improvement in muscle development.
• Anyone wanting that "cut" look in the arms, abs, buttocks and/or legs and is willing to work for it.

In addition AMTET helps women who have relatively low to moderate body fat composition and would like their arms, legs or buttocks to look firmer and have more muscle definition ... A toned and fit look.

Of course, Body builders can benefit from this also.

Call me for an evaluation, I know of no one else using these methods of body improvement.
