If this is your first time receiving a therapeutic massage at our location with me you're at the right place. I take my time interviewing and assessing you to create a treatment plan personalized for your needs. It can take more than 15 mins but on average this is what I'll need for your first appointment then you can enjoy your massage.
If you want a 75 minute or 90 minute massage and it's your first time you can choose one of those options in another category below but please note that an interview and assessment will be done.

Initial Assessment & Massage Treatment

You must book an "Initial Assessment & Massage Treatment" appointment if it's your first treatment with me. If you want a 75 minute or 90 minute massage and it's your first time you can choose one of those options but please note that an interview and assessment will be done. 
If you have done the initial assessment you will be receiving different tissue manipulation techniques based on your treatment plan that was created from your first appointment.

Manual lymph drainage (MLD) is a very gentle technique that helps your body remove excess fluid and waste from connective tissues, reducing inflammation and alleviating pain. It is beneficial for a variety of conditions, such as headaches, whiplash, sinus congestion, pre- and post-surgery recovery, surgical and burn scars, arthritis, strains, sprains, tendonitis, bursitis, and frozen shoulder.
MLD can also be an effective way to treat vertigo, tinnitus, or Meniere’s disease, as these conditions can sometimes be linked to excess lymph in the inner ear or surrounding nerves. Additionally, regular lymphatic drainage may improve skin conditions like acne, psoriasis, and eczema, as these often result from inflammatory responses.
Manual lymph drainage can help with several neurological conditions. For example, it can help with multiple sclerosis (MS) by reducing inflammation in the myelin sheath of nerves and improving the transmission of nerve impulses.
Overall, manual lymph drainage is helpful for a wide range of issues linked to inflammation and excess fluid in the body. Feel free to ask Brianne at your next appointment if she believes MLD could be beneficial for your needs. In the future, she plans to complete Level 3 training, which will allow her to treat more complex cases involving damage to the lymphatic system, such as lymphedema.

Please note that this technique is very gentle and does not require the therapist to apply deep pressure. However, deep pressure techniques can be incorporated into the treatment if needed.

Cupping is a therapeutic technique that involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create a vacuum, which can help enhance the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, promoting healing. This method can be effective in relieving muscle tension, reducing pain, and improving range of motion. Cupping may be particularly beneficial for conditions like chronic pain, stiffness, and sports injuries, as it can help release tightness in the muscles and fascia. It can also support recovery after strenuous physical activity. Cupping can offer a non-invasive approach to musculoskeletal health.
