Many Styles of Massage Therapy, but in Duncanville, TX I have a few specialties

“Massage therapy” can mean many things to many different people. Ultimately, what most are seeking is an experience of feeling better when they leave than when they showed up for the massage.

In general, massage therapists work on muscle and other soft tissue to help you feel better. Feeling better is the end result we’re aiming for and that you’re, likely, seeking.

My Massage Therapy Specialties at Sessions Hair, Nails & Skin in Duncanville, TX

While I am always attending seminars, courses, and continuing education classes to add to my toolkit as a massage therapist, I do have a few specialties that I tend to focus on.

Reflexology Massage

A system of massage used to relieve tension and treat illness, based on the theory that there are reflex points on the feet, hands, and head linked to every part of the body.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is the most common and best-known type of massage in the West. If it’s your first time at the spa or you don’t get massage often, Swedish massage is the best place to start.

Crystal Massage

A full body massage where I place crystals under the arms, at the neck, on the chakra sites and along the legs. It is followed by a reflexology treatment.

Foot Scrub

The feet are gently rubbed with a salt/oil mixture that will exfoliate, invigorate and smooth and soothe the foot.

Chair Massage

Enjoy a relaxing massage, fully clothed, while waiting in the salon! Or just relax for as long as you want as you benefit from a neck, back, hand and arm massage.

Chakra Balancing

A procedure that increases the healthy flow of energy through the chakras and therefore through the entire energy field. A healthier flow of energy through the aura creates greater physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.

Scientific Research on Massage Therapy

There have been countless studies done on massage therapy over the years, many being preliminary or conflicting in nature. Much of the evidence that researchers are seeing points towards massage therapy having a beneficial effect on pain and other symptoms associated with a number of unpleasant conditions.

Massage for Pain Management

There is good evidence to suggest that massage therapy can be an effective form of relief for lower back pain and chronic neck pain. Some people even experience relief from headaches, though the research is still be conducted on the reasons why.

What the research does confirm is that massage therapy in many instances can reduce pain, promote relaxation, and boost people’s mood.

Massage Therapy can Boost Your Mood

For those who suffer from bouts or chronic depression, a recent scientific literature concluded that massage therapy may help to reduce depression.
