Your Trusted Massage Therapy Experts
At Total Relax, we have dedicated ourselves to providing therapeutic and relaxing massage experiences since our founding in March 2012. Our approach combines Traditional Chinese Massage techniques, back walking, and Swedish methods to address individual needs while focusing on Chinese meridian points to relieve stress and tension. Our therapists utilize deep tissue pressure through body weight to target muscles and tendons in the back, shoulders, and hamstrings, finishing with soothing Swedish techniques to ensure both therapeutic benefits and relaxation. We specialize in ancient practices such as Cai Bei, an energetic Chinese back walking technique that leverages gravity to release deep muscle tension, and Ba Guan (cupping therapy), which enhances blood circulation and toxin removal. Our prenatal massage services cater specifically to expectant mothers, offering support through strategic positioning and focused relief on pressure points.Reflexology sessions further complement our offerings by stimulating pressure points on the feet, hands, and ears to promote systemic wellness. Our commitment to creating a quiet, unpretentious environment ensures every client receives personalized care grounded in centuries-old traditions while benefiting from modern adaptations. With expertise in meridian-based therapies and acupressure principles, we help clients achieve improved circulation, reduced pain, and enhanced overall well-being. Our team's mastery of both traditional and contemporary techniques positions us as leaders in holistic massage therapy, dedicated to delivering measurable results through every session.

Services
Cai Bei Massage
Cai Bei utilizes gravity-based pressure through the therapist's body weight to release deep muscle tension. This ancient Chinese technique targets back, shoulder, and hamstring muscles using controlled foot pressure, promoting improved circulation and immediate relief from chronic stiffness. Ideal for high-stress individuals and athletes seeking enhanced recovery through non-invasive therapy.
Ba Guan (Cupping)
Ba Guan employs suction cups to stimulate blood flow and remove toxins from deep tissues. By creating localized vacuum pressure on meridian points, this therapy alleviates muscle pain, improves circulation, and accelerates healing. Modern adaptations maintain traditional efficacy while ensuring client comfort through adjustable suction intensity and precise application techniques.
Prenatal Massage
Specially designed for expectant mothers, this massage focuses on pressure points in the neck, back, hips, and feet. Using side-lying positioning with supportive pillows, it reduces joint stress, improves circulation, and eases pregnancy-related discomforts. The therapy promotes better sleep and emotional well-being through targeted muscle relaxation and systemic support.
Foot Reflexology
Foot reflexology applies targeted pressure to specific foot zones corresponding to body systems. This non-invasive technique enhances nerve function, reduces stress, and promotes organ wellness through meridian stimulation. Sessions improve lymphatic drainage and create systemic relaxation by activating the body's natural healing responses through strategic point manipulation.
Meridian Acupressure
Meridian acupressure follows traditional Chinese medicine principles to balance energy flow through 14 body channels. By applying manual pressure to key points, it removes blockages in Qi circulation, alleviates chronic pain, and restores physiological harmony. This technique combines deep tissue work with energy balancing to address both physical symptoms and systemic wellness.
Questions
What makes Cai Bei massage unique compared to other deep tissue techniques?
Cai Bei uses controlled body-weight pressure through foot-based manipulation to target deep muscle layers more effectively than traditional hand techniques.
Is cupping therapy painful or safe for sensitive skin?
Cupping creates temporary suction marks but causes no pain. The pressure is adjustable to accommodate different sensitivity levels while maintaining therapeutic effectiveness.
Can prenatal massage help with common pregnancy discomforts?
Yes, our prenatal sessions specifically address pregnancy-related aches by improving circulation and reducing pressure on weight-bearing joints through strategic positioning.
How does reflexology benefit overall health beyond foot relaxation?
Reflexology stimulates nerve pathways connecting foot points to internal organs, promoting systemic wellness through improved circulation and nerve function.
What should I expect during my first meridian-based acupressure session?
The therapist will assess your energy flow patterns before applying targeted pressure to key meridian points, focusing on releasing tension and restoring balanced Qi circulation.
Are there any post-treatment recommendations after receiving cupping therapy?
We recommend staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous activity for 24 hours to maximize the detoxification effects and maintain improved circulation patterns.
