Unlock peak performance and long-lasting relief

Myofascial release and therapeutic sports massage target both the fascia and muscle tissue for improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced performance.

Benefits of a Therapeutic Sport Massage

Sports massage is specifically designed to help athletes recover from workouts, prevent injuries, and enhance performance. This type of massage focuses on treating soft tissue injuries, reducing muscle tension, improving flexibility, and promoting faster recovery.

Sports massage techniques may include deep tissue massage, stretching, and trigger point therapy to target specific areas of tension and discomfort.

  • Accelerates muscle recovery and reduces soreness

  • Breaks up fascial restrictions and scar tissue

  • Improves posture, flexibility, and range of motion

  • Alleviates chronic pain and overuse injuries

  • Supports injury prevention and rehabilitation

What is a Myofascial Release Massage?

Myofascial release therapy targets the fascia, the dense irregular connective tissue made of collagen fibers that supports and surrounds your muscles and organs. Through intentional manipulation of this fascial tissue, we work to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve structural alignment.

This session is ideal for those seeking lasting change in posture, movement, and overall function.

  • "I have received many, many massages over the years as a chronic pain patient and by a landslide, Alyssa's is the best. She is thoughtful, intentional and sincerely knows her craft. Alyssa's holistic approach helped me relax and feel greatly cared for. She is thorough, warm and kind and SO STRONG! My muscles and heart were so happy to have been under her care. I recommend her HIGHLY."

She provides the most loving space with the strongest yet most soothing touch. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and I learned so much about my body and how to prevent recurring problems from that first session. I’ll be a forever client of hers.”

Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is a traditional healing technique that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This suction helps to lift and separate the layers of tissue, promoting blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and facilitating the release of toxins and cellular waste. Cupping therapy can be performed using either glass or silicone cups, and the technique can be stationary or moving, depending on the desired effect.

The benefits of cupping therapy:

  • Cupping therapy can help alleviate muscle pain, stiffness, and tension by increasing blood flow to the affected area and promoting the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.

  • The suction created by cupping therapy can stimulate blood flow and lymphatic drainage, helping to remove toxins and reduce inflammation in the body.

  • Cupping therapy can induce a deep sense of relaxation and calm, making it an effective treatment for stress relief and mental well-being.

  • By promoting the release of toxins and metabolic waste from the tissues, cupping therapy can support the body's natural detoxification processes and enhance overall health and vitality.

Kinesiology Taping

Kinesiology taping is a therapeutic technique that involves applying specialized elastic tape to the skin to provide support, stability, and pain relief to muscles and joints. The tape mimics the elasticity and thickness of human skin, allowing for a full range of motion while providing structural support. Kinesiology taping can be used for various purposes, including injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance enhancement.

The benefits of kinesiology taping:

  • Kinesiology taping can help reduce pain and discomfort by supporting muscles and joints, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation.

  • By supporting and stabilizing muscles and joints, kinesiology taping can help prevent injuries during physical activity and sports.

  • Kinesiology taping can enhance proprioception, or the body's awareness of its position in space, improving movement patterns, coordination, and athletic performance.

  • Kinesiology taping can be used as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program to support injured muscles and joints, promote healing, and restore function.

FAQs

  • This massage is more focused and technical. Instead of general relaxation, we use targeted techniques like myofascial release and cupping to correct muscular imbalances and movement dysfunction.

  • You may feel some intensity during trigger point work, but we always work within your comfort level. Many clients describe it as “good pain” that brings long-term relief.

  • If you’re active or dealing with chronic issues, 1–2 sessions per month is ideal. We’ll work with you to build a plan that supports your recovery and performance.
