		Health Benefits Western Massage     Western Massage is a system of soft tissue manipulation, touch without movement (including     acupressure), and joint movements.  Deep tissue massage used upon request.  The purpose is to     enhance the normal functioning of the body and its systems to stimulate the body’s natural healing power.     Western Massage encompasses massage as a health practice, for beauty and pleasure, as well as for     healing, relaxing muscles, increasing circulation, removing metabolic waste products. Acupressure     Accupressure is applying finger pressure on key points of the body.  This redirects & balances the     flow of energy.  By stimulating specific points endorphins are released, reducing pain, increasing blood     flow & oxygen, causing the muscle to relax and heal.  Accupressure may be used in combination with     Western massage & Deep Tissue massage to release muscle tension. Deep Tissue Massage     Deep Tissue Massage uses light to heavy pressure through longer, slower strokes, more direct     pressure, and friction applied across the grain of the muscle to release chronic muscle tension.       Deep Tissue Massage increases blood circulation to targeted areas, relieving pain and helping     muscles relax. Hot Stone Massage     Heated stones of various sizes & shapes are used to massage the muscles & placed on the body     over energy centers.  Transferring the moist heat from the stone to the body increases circulation,     flushes toxins and brings fresh oxygen and nutrients to that area.  Hot Stone Massage softens     tendons making them more flexible and providing greater range of motion. Aromatherapy Massage     Aromatherapy Massage is the therapeutic use of essential oils.  These oils affect health and mood by     leaving one feeling uplifted, stimulated, invigorated, or rejuvenated, depending on the oil used.  As a     scent, the oil activates the limbic system and emotional centers of the brain.  Applied to the skin, different     oils activate thermal receptors, stimulate the immune system, and kill microbes and fungi.  One of the best     known essential oils for aromatherapy is lavender, for treating wounds, to enhance memory, and to aid     sleep by combating anxiety and insomnia. Reflexology     Reflexology is a compression massage to the feet which stimulates nerve endings.  This has a positive     effect on organs and structures of the body, initiating a natural healing response.  Reflexology     normalizes function of organs, improves circulation, and promotes relaxation.  It clears blocked     energy pathways by relaxing the surrounding muscles.                    Day Spa Home Page          Price List                          Tioga Suites Hotel Home Page
