Massage for Health

There are many different types/modalities of massage. Here are the modalities I work in and a description of what they are. All massages can be done at my home office located in Kew Gardens NY, or in the comfort of your home…NYC, Long Island and Upstate New York.

 Swedish/European: The term "Swedish Massage" refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.

Amma Massage: The word Am-ma is an ancient Chinese word meaning “Push-pull”. Amma massage dates back about five thousand years. AMMA Therapy®, founded and developed by Tina Sohn, is an extremely specialized form of massage therapy that combines deep tissue manipulation with the application of pressure, friction and touch to specific points and the channels on which they are found. These channels are the pathways through which energy passes throughout the body.

Amma Therapy® is very much like acupuncture it focus on movement of energy by using points and channels to remove blockages and free energy (Qi). 

Reflexology - A unique method of using the thumb and fingers to stimulate reflex areas that relate to different parts of the body based in feet, hands and face. 

Chair Massage - By far, the most convenient method of massage therapy. Chair massage can be done as little as 10minutes and long as 1 hour. A chair massage is done while the client is fully clothed. A chair massage promotes better circulation and muscle stimulation. This form of massage reduces tension in the back, neck and shoulders; thus providing deep relaxation. Chair massage can be done in small locations, where  a table may be too large.
