The general intention of most massage therapy techniques is to increase circulation, rid the body of toxins, and enhance overall wellness. Studies show that therapeutic massage also increases awareness of body-mind connections, which helps foster a feeling of calm and general well-being, and a greater sense of being in control of stressful situations. Additionally, massage has been proven to reduce heart rate, lower blood pressure, relax muscles, improve flexibility, increase energy levels and lessen or relieve symptoms of:
- Fibromyalgia
- Carpal Tunnel
If you suffer from any of these conditions, we encourage you to seek the advice of your physician or chiropractor for a coordinated treatment plan with your massage therapist.
At Oasis, your massage therapist will work with you to customize the massage you need.

Swedish
The main goal of Swedish massage is relaxation. Therapists utilize a routine of smooth, gliding strokes, kneading and gently stretching the muscles. From head to toe, every one of the body's systems is affected by a Swedish massage. This general technique is what most people expect when coming in for a common relaxation massage.
RATES: $35/30 minutes; $63/60 minutes; $90/90 minutes.
Deep Tissue
The main goal of deep-tissue massage is to alleviate soreness or tightness in muscles. Therapists utilize slower strokes and deeper finger pressure on contracted areas. Typically the deep, slow strokes follow the muscle line, as well as go across the grain of constricted muscles and tendons. As the name implies, the focus of this massage is the deeper layers of muscle tissues.
RATES: $35/30 minutes; $63/60 minutes; $90/90 minutes.
Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)
NMT works with the relationship between nerves and muscles. Our specially trained therapists are educated in the physiology of the nervous system and its effect on the muscular and skeletal systems, as well as kinesiology and biomechanics. By utilizing soft-tissue manipulation (massage) in balance with the body's central nervous system and musculoskeletal systems, this technique allows the therapist to find neuro trigger points to break up knots and relieve pain.
RATES: $35/30 minutes; $63/60 minutes; $90/90 minutes.
Hot Stone
The main goal of hot stone massage is to relieve muscle tension and enhance relaxation. During the course of a massage, smooth river stones are heated to a comfortable temperature and then applied to the body in long, deep strokes. The heat that is transferred to the muscles results in increased circulation and deep relaxation for the client.
