Sinus Headache Massage   

Every sinus headache massage with a warm compress on your facial sinus area giving  comforting relief while your shoulders and neck are massaged. Chilled stones and a roller are then used to massage the face with cooling comfort to reduce inflammation. 

Warm Bamboo Massage  

For a warm bamboo massage, a combination of hands and gently heated pieces of bamboo are used to massage.   This is a type of holistic treatment which utilizes bamboo canes. During the treatment, a therapist will use a variety of differently sized bamboo canes. The size of the cane will vary depending on your body type; desirable treatment outcome and the area treated; the larger the area, the bigger the cane.   The heat from the bamboo sinks into the muscles and gently relaxes the body.  Heat and pressure from the bamboo allow for a comfortable deep relaxing massage. As an added bonus, bamboo is a natural antioxidant with naturally occurring silica which assists your body in absorbing minerals, giving your skin a healthy glow.

 It's not yoga and it’s not traditional massage.  Yomassage is a luxurious and profoundly relaxing experience that combines mindfulness, supported positions and relaxing therapeutic touch in a semi-private group format 

Each session begins with a deep breathing ritual, or a unique themed meditation that grounds you in the present moment. Let your concerns float away as you’re guided through a series of restorative stretches while receiving therapeutic touch and guided meditation. Through the session, you’ll move into a place of tranquility and relaxation. As the session comes to a close you’ll leave with a true sense  of peace.
