I have been asked a lot lately “What type of massage should I schedule ❓❓”
In all honesty, CONSISTENCY is more important than what type of massage!
If it is your first massage and/or relaxation is your primary goal, 🌱Swedish will do the trick. 🔥 Hot stones are an AMAZING compliment to Swedish!
Looking to work out some knots or have a specific, stubborn spot? 💪🏼Deep Tissue may be a better option. Adding Muscle Scraping 🙌🏻 will really hit the target.
Cupping is considered a decompression technique. It has the same benefits as traditional massage, but rather than hands on pressure 👋🏻 it uses suction.
***SPOILER ALERT***
Lymphatic drainage is NOT the same as traditional massage therapy. Massage therapy focuses on muscles—reducing tension, improving circulation, and relieving pain through varying levels of pressure.
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), on the other hand, uses very light, precise movements to stimulate the lymphatic system, helping the body reduce swelling, support immune function, and move excess fluid. It’s a medical-based technique, not a deep tissue treatment.
