TYPES OF MASSAGE EXPLAINED
1. NST (Normalization of Soft Tissue)
This type of massage is focused on a particular area of discomfort or dysfunction. Often described as therapeutic or deep tissue work. Using postural analysis and a complete health history background, the muscles and joints that are limiting full movement, causing the experience of pain, causing pain patterns, or inhibiting performance are addressed using a variety of techniques to increase blood flow, improve tissue pliability, and restore proper function. Frequently the client is directed through stretches and/or exercises that will further enhance their function between treatments.
2. MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage)
This type of massage is focused on the Lymphatic system and dysfunctions that might occur when it is not properly functioning (Please refer to the information specifically about this work on the website).This technique is, in terms or pressure, the opposite end of the spectrum from NST work. MLD is extremely gentle, and non-invasive, therefore, it is effective in the treatment of acute injuries that might be too tender to touch with significant depth.

3. Swedish Massage
This type of massage is most familiar to the general public. This type of massage focuses on relaxation, yet also benefits the overall health of all the tissues of the body because is strives to improve and increase circulation of blood throughout the body. Frequently techniques characteristic to Swedish massage are used during NST to gently transition the deeper work from one part of the body to the next.
