Massage New York Massage Service

If you know what style of massage you prefer, please let us know when you book your session and we’ll match a therapist to your specific needs.

Otherwise, merely tell us how you feel when you come in, and our therapists will use a variety of styles to create a custom session just for you.

Please note that not all therapists use every technique, so if you know you like deep tissue,  etc., you’ll want to mention it when you call to set your appointment.

Swedish
The most commonly offered massage technique. Swedish features long strokes and kneading of the muscles. It is used primarily for full body sessions to promote full relaxation, circulation, and to relieve muscle tension.

Deep Tissue
This massage releases chronic patterns of tension in the body through long slow strokes and deep finger pressure on tensed areas. This technique improves body alignment and freedom of movement. If you enjoy massage work with a fair amount of pressure but find deep tissue uncomfortable at times you may want to request firm Swedish massage for a portion of your session.

Shiatsu
A Japanese massage system that incorporates finger, thumb and palm pressure along the body’s energy channels. The intent is to release energy blockages, rebalance and stimulate energy flow.

Sports Massage
This massage focuses on the muscles relevant to a particular athletic activity. It is usually more vigorous and deeper than Swedish massage.

Reflexology
This ancient Chinese technique applies pressure to points mainly on the feet but also on the hands and ears which correspond to specific areas of the body.

Thai
An ancient Thai bodywork system designed to unblock trapped energy and improve vitality by applying pressure along the body’s energy pathways. It uses slow rhythmic pressing with fingers, thumbs, hands, forearms, elbows and feet, and stretches with gentle rocking motions.
