Be Sound Massage Treatments

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is a relaxing treatment both physically and mentally.

It can help to release tension in the muscles, improve skin and muscle tone, improves circulation and aids lymphatic drainage, helping to rid the body of toxins and is particularly effective at tackling stress.

Some deeper massage techniques may/can be used in tight or knotted areas to manipulate the soft tissue (skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments).

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue or Remedial Massage uses techniques that focus on the deeper layers of muscle tissue.

Slower strokes and direct deep pressure or friction is applied to the muscles, tendons and fascia. This can help to break down areas of scar tissue or adhesions realigning the muscle fibers to aid in relieving pain and improving range of movement.

Deep tissue or Remedial Massage also includes all the benefits of a Swedish massage.

Sports Massage

Sports massage is similar to remedial or deep tissue massage except the techniques used are tailored to assist in treating or preventing sports injuries.

Sports massage stretches muscle tissue, releases tension from joints to keep the body flexible. It can also help to stimulate the circulation, reduce swelling, remove waste products and speed up the healing process. Sports massage can assist soft tissue injury healing and ultimately enhance your sports training and performance.

All treatments are $75.00 for a one-hour appointment.

Be Sound

To "be" is to live.

As "sound" is to be free from injury and disease,

in harmony with one's self.

For the past five years, I have been determined to make a difference, promote wellness and "serve" others. It is an honor to act as a facilitator in one’s personal journey to achieve a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

I am a full time certified and licensed massage therapist in OR. I graduated from Irene's Myomassology Institute in Southfield, MI in 2005.

Modalities I practice include Swedish, Deep Tissue/Remedial, Sports Massage, Trigger Points, Carpal Tunnel, Thai, Myofascial Release and Reflexology.

From my heart, my hands…to yours.
