"THERE ARE MANY UNIQUE TYPES OF MASSAGES. WHAT ARE SOME TREATMENTS OUTSIDE THE NORM?"

“One of the most popular treatments at Tamaya Mist Spa & Salon is our Lavender Dry Brush therapy. The 80-minute treatment includes a dry brush exfoliation and lavender-oil massage to rejuvenate tired skin, and a hands and feet exfoliation with our Tamaya blue corn meal, desert sea salt and lavender flower scrub. In 2023, Tamaya Mist will also be introducing a line of CBD treatments, something new to the spa that our guests can enjoy.”

“I’m a massage therapist, but my work also contains the knowledge of all the other modalities I’ve studied - shiatsu, biodynamic craniosacral work, Reiki, and SourcePoint Therapy. I offer either solely manual work, solely energetic work, or a blend of the two. Often I find that people benefit from having both. Working this way enables me to pull from all the tools in my belt and communicate with people’s bodies in a very nuanced and tailored way.”

A:“We do offer a variety of massage treatments that no other spas offer. At Love’s Healing Touch our goal is to provide more than relaxation as we aim to make individuals feel their best. To list a few modalities that are different:

1. Table Shiatsu: This technique is a Japanese technique meaning finger pressure. It is most beneficial for clients who suffer from Fibromyalgia, autoimmune disorders, and over-stimulated nerves.

2. Lymphatic Drainage: Our therapists are specially trained in clearing the lymphatic system. It is beneficial to those with extreme swelling and bruising. Our Ayervedic approach to body scrubs are simultaneously a therapeutic treatment to the lymphatic system while exfoliating the skin.

3. Therapeutic Massage: This massage is geared to focus on specific areas of pain. Our skilled therapist uses multiple techniques to relieve an individual’s specific pain issues.

4. Structural Relief Therapy: SRT for short, this technique is a gentle approach to pain relief that does not add pain to those who are already in pain and is highly effective. It can provide relief for those with Thoracic Outlet syndrome, frozen shoulder, knee pain, low back pain, plantar fasciitis, whiplash, and so much more.

-This specific treatment is only offered by a small handful of Massage therapists in the USA.”

A:“At Sacred Healing we know that the condition of our physical body is a representation of our internal world. We identify clients by their soul and customize every massage to nurture the soul's deepest need.

Reiki, polarity, craniosacral, and aroma therapy are all essential modalities that are integrated into treatments in addition to Swedish and deep tissue massages. Sacred Healing prides itself on being a safe inclusive community for people to reconnect with their authentic selves.”
