Massage at ISIS

The core of our massage therapy at ISIS is based on the Classical Swedish system used at European clinics since the 1800's. This massage style combines relaxation, muscle flexibility and fluid drainage. It has been used to reduce stress and strain while increasing circulation by as much as 400%. So not only do your muscles feel amazingly light and relaxed, your skin glows from the increased circulation. This is the perfect blend of therapy and bliss sought after for generations in every elite vacation spot in the world.

Deep Tissue Massage Therapy is simply a more specialized form that is designed for specific sections of muscle tissue and tendinous attachments, eliminating metabolic waste deposits, reducing inflammation and increasing circulation. Unlike Sports Work which focuses on the muscles used in specific activities, Deep Tissue Therapy addresses the entire body with strong pressure and long stroking. This is the best comprehensive bodywide treatment available, especially if the only muscles you are using are your shoulders and back, typical in many occupations. Even the neck can become stiff, sore and inflexible from bending over a computer screen all day. Unwind your body with the best workout you can get outside of the gym.

There is nothing more relaxing, more stress reducing, more luxurious and more addictive than Ancient Hot Stone Massage. This ancient therapy has renewed the interest in using the earth as therapy. Smooth basalt stones are heated in hot water and applied to the body in energetic patterns during the session. The heat from the stones unwinds tense muscle tissue and relaxes the mind. Stones are also used as tools for deeper, more penetrating massage of thicker muscular areas.  This is all combined with a deep long stroking massage technique that combines the effects of muscular therapy with the penetrating heat of the earth.
