Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massage in South Edmonton and West Edmonton

Therapeutic Massage Therapy

60 Minute $105 | 75 Minute $130 | 90 Minute $150

Deep tissue massage is designed to penetrate deeper muscles or to break down scar tissue. Deep tissue massage does not necessarily require deeper or stronger pressure. Lighter pressure and movement may be the most effective way to alleviate and improve existing conditions. It might be used with trigger points and mild pain may be experienced. 
By relaxing, stretching and lengthening muscles surrounding tissue, circulation is improved, internal muscle scar tissue is broken down, fascia is released, and your body’s natural healing process begins providing pain relief.
Pressure may be a client preference.  Please communicate with your Alberta Momentum Registered Massage Therapist throughout your massage treatment to ensure your comfort level. Your therapist should ask you how the pressure is during your treatment.
Neuromuscular Therapy can alleviate minor strains and chronic muscular pain and discomfort.

Relaxation massage is part of an integrated therapeutic massage ideal for the stress, aches and pains of everyday life. Swedish Massage is based on Western concepts of anatomy and physiology as opposed to energy work. It can be slow and gentle, or vigorous and bracing, depending on what the therapist wants to achieve. It is great for people who want to unwind and release stress. The person releases endorphins which can connect and soothe both the body and mind.
 
Relaxation massage promotes quality sleep, reduces emotional and physical stress, and is a great way to create a quiet and reviving experience for you in the middle or end of a busy work week.
Hot Stone Massage Therapy in South Edmonton and West Edmonton

Specialty Massage Therapy

60 Minute $130 | 75 Minute $160 | 90 Minute $180 | 120 Minute $220

In a Hot Stone Massage, the therapist uses smooth, heated stones as an extension of their own hands, or by placing the pure basalt stones on the body while massaging other areas. The heat is deeply relaxing and helps to warm up tight muscles so the therapist can work at a deeper tissue level. Natural basalt or river stones have excellent heat retention. Deeply heating muscles and ligaments during treatment, your therapist will be able to achieve a soothing and beneficial massage, combining elements of relaxation and deep tissue. Hot Stone Massage is a favourite during cold or rainy day weather, as a gift, and for any client who enjoys the even, calming warmth of this delightful treatment.
 
Jade Stone Massage is a specialty treatment in which the therapist uses both hot and chilled jade stones to assist in therapeutic treatments. The chilled stones are used sparingly in a treatment, often for acute conditions. The heated stones allow the therapist to work deeper into muscle layers and the chilled stones can help to treat inflammation. Jade stones are mined, cut, shaped and polished into specific shapes that allow the therapist to use more therapeutic techniques than a traditional hot stone massage would allow. Jade itself has been said to have healing properties that help to balance the body. The stone is made of calcium, magnesium, and iron which allows the stone to hold a hot and cool temperature equally well.

In Hot Bamboo/Rattan Massage, hollow bamboo sticks of different lengths and diameters are used. Larger bamboo sticks glide and roll on larger muscles. Shorter, thinner stick are used on tension or trigger points. Even smaller sticks may be used on hands and feet. Pressure may be gentle or deeper, depending on client needs. Bamboo may be combined with other methods. Muscle tension may be released, lymphatic drainage improved, and fascia released. For many therapists, the bamboo is an extension of their hands and they feel energized in providing the massage.

Myofascial Cupping creates a negative pressure or suction through use of a plastic or glass cup. The tissues underneath the skin, including the fascia, are pulled up close to the skin. They are separated and stretched.
 
The therapist may glide a cup over a muscle or place it on a trigger point for a short time.
 
Light or dark red marks may appear. They will disappear in 5 to 10 days.
 
It is often incorporated into other massage therapies including trigger point release and injury rehabilitation.
Thai herbal compress is a great alternative to deep tissue massage and leaves you intensively relaxed and energized. It involves a massage with a herbal compress ball infused with herbs such as eucalyptus, turmeric, ginger, jasmine, and lemongrass. The herbs are steamed prior and during treatment to have deep moist heat for optimal relaxation of muscles and joints.
 
Thai herbal compress massage is known for its healing properties, and stimulating effects. Some benefits include:
  • improved circulation
  • relieve muscle tenderness
  • ease arthritis or fibromyalgia pain
  • reduce stress and anxiety, reduce muscle spasm and tone
  • cleanse and heal skin.

The combination of herbal compress with Swedish relaxation massage just might leave you feeling incredible!
