Deep Tissue Massage
Used primarily to “unstick” the body’s connective tissues and/or muscles and encourage optimum functioning, deep tissue massage is performed by moving gradually deeper as the body opens up. It is commonly used in injury rehabilitation such as whiplash, low back and neck pain.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage (MLD)
A specific light touch therapy, Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage or MLD is a gentle, rhythmic stimulation of the lymph vessels that can increase lymph flow up to 20 times its normal rate of flow. This increased flow greatly promotes regeneration of tissues, making it an ideal form of therapy following most surgeries (with doctor permission); it also decreases swelling and bruising, relieves headaches, and addresses sinus and allergy issues. In addition, MLD can provide results similar to a mini facelift by decreasing puffiness and dark circles, diminishing wrinkles and releasing tension that is frequently held around the eyes, forehead and jaw.

Myofascial Release (MFR)
Myofascial Release or MFR seeks to free the body from the grip of tight fascia or connective tissue, as well as restore normal alignment and function and reduce pain. Applying mild to moderate sustained pressure to gently stretch and soften the fascia, MFR is used to treat neck and back pain, repetitive stress syndrome (RSS), tendonitis, headaches and many other conditions.

Raindrop Technique (RT)
During this technique, Young Living therapeutic grade oils are dispensed like drops of rain approximately six inches above the spine, then feathered along the vertebrae and back muscles. They are also applied to the vita flex points on the feet. Easily absorbed into the skin, these oils are woven into a massage session to assist with relaxation and/or detoxification.

Shiatsu/Acupressure
Literally translated as “finger pressure,” Shiatsu is the most widely known form of acupressure. It also combines rhythmic stretching along energy channels to stimulate chi or vital energy.

Swedish Massage
The most common form of massage in Western countries, Swedish massage consists of rubbing, kneading, brushing, cupping, friction and tapping the muscles. Swedish massage is mostly used for general relaxation and tension release.
