Swedish Massage technique is applied to the outermost layers of muscle/tissue and consists of five styles of long, flowing strokes including sliding/gliding, kneading, rhythmic tapping, cross fiber friction and vibration/shaking.  It is known in most countries around the world as "Classic Massage" and is possibly the most common massage technique used in Western countries.

Myofascial Release is a safe and very effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. This essential “time element” has to do with the viscous flow and the piezoelectric phenomenon: a low load (gentle pressure) applied slowly will allow a viscoelastic medium (fascia) to elongate.

Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or surgical procedures create Myofascial restrictions that can produce pressure on pain sensitive structures that do not show up in many of the standard tests (x-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, electromyography, etc.) 

If you're experiencing persistant or chronic pain, NeuroMuscular therapy (NMT) is for you.  By definition, NMT is the use of static pressure on specific myofascial points to relieve pain.

NeuroMuscular therapy manipulates the soft tissue of the body to balance the central nervous system.  Nerves transmit impulses responsible for every movement and function of the body.  Injury, trauma or stress cause nerves to speed up their transmission, inhibiting equilibrium and making the body vulnerable to pain and dysfunction.  If the levels of neurological activity can be stabilized, normal function and overall health can be restored and maintained.
