Swedish Massage

Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when most people think about massage. As the best-known type of bodywork performed today, one of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body.

Swedish massage is exceptionally beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, decreasing muscle toxins, improving circulation and flexibility while easing tension.

Ion Cleanse

At an ionic foot bath session, users immerse their feet in a basin filled with salt water. Electrodes in the water add a small electric charge.

Some companies claim that users experience reduced pain, higher energy levels and relief from allergies, insomnia and other conditions after a treatment.
