Aromatic Therapeutic Massage

The power of bodywork combined with aromatherapy is undeniable. Our aromatic therapeutic massage sessions incorporate the use of essential oils to enhance the benefits of traditional massage techniques. Whether you're seeking a luxurious treat, stress relief, or pain management, our aromatherapy massages can help manage stress and promote relaxation.

The benefits of touch and massage therapy are numerous and wide-ranging. Research has shown that massage can help treat chronic diseases, neurological disorders, injuries, and even alleviate the tensions of modern lifestyles. At Integrated Holistic Massage, we offer a variety of bodywork modalities to address your unique needs, including Swedish massage, deep tissue/neuro-muscular therapy, and abdominal massage.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is a popular and effective massage technique that utilizes long strokes, kneading, friction, and other circular movements to energize the body and promote relaxation. Swedish massage can help improve circulation, reduce stress, and alleviate muscle tension, making it an excellent option for those seeking a general full-body relaxation experience.

Deep Tissue/Neuro-Muscular Therapy

Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue to alleviate chronic pain and tension. Our deep tissue/neuro-muscular therapy sessions incorporate techniques that utilize deep-tissue/deep-muscle massage to affect the sub-layer of musculature and fascia. This type of massage is particularly effective for those seeking relief from chronic muscular pain, injury rehabilitation, and inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendinitis.

Abdominal Massage

Abdominal massage is a specialized form of bodywork that focuses on the abdominal area, including the colon, digestive organs, and surrounding muscles. Abdominal massage can help strengthen and relax the abdominal muscles, reduce inflammation and adhesions, and promote healthy digestion and elimination. This type of massage is particularly beneficial for those seeking relief from digestive issues, such as bloating, constipation, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Essenian and Egyptian Therapies

As a certified practitioner of Essenian and Egyptian Therapies, Isabelle incorporates these ancient healing techniques into her massage sessions, as permitted by the client. These therapies focus on the body's energy system, meridians, and chakras, promoting overall well-being and balance.
