This is the massage for those who just want to relax and restore. Feel your stress

tolerate deep work for medical reasons.

restore you to optimum wellness and mobility. Also recommended for those who
just desire a deeper massage.

TMJ DYSFUNCTION THERAPY 1/2 hr 30.00 1 hr 60.00
Is TMJ making your life miserable? Clicking jaws, grinding teeth, can't open your
mouth wide enough to enjoy eating? We treat TMJ by working deep in the tissues
of the head, neck, and shoulders, with a specific focus on the intraoral and
external muscles of mastication. If you are suffering from this condition, come and
see what just one session will do for you.
HOT STONE MASSAGE 1 hr 80.00 1 & 1/2 hr 120.00

with hot oiled stones. You will be in the Relaxation Zone within five minutes as you
feel your stress melting away.
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE requires 1hr + 15-30 mins 90.00
Finally, something non-invasive that works on allergies, edema, migraine
headaches, and menstrual problems. This gentle modality is very effective at
flushing the lymphatic system--the body's toxic dump.
ROLF METHOD OF STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION requires 2 hrs 100.00
Series of 10 paid in advance 900.00
The deepest massage you have ever had. The Rolf Method of Structural
Integration is not directed at muscles; it is directed at fascia, the body's connective
tissue. Imagine being free of pain, stiffness and stress caused by years of bad
habits, injury, and the effects of gravity. SI restores the body's natural framework,
resulting in optimal alignment and freedom from pain. It is recommended that SI
be performed in a series of ten treatments. Our expert therapist will analyze your
structure at the first session and discuss your treatment plan at that time. SI is not
a temporary change--it's a real fix. Performed here exclusively by Jack Boyd,
Certified in the original Rolf Method of Structural Integration.
And our Special Couples Massage

candlelight and soft music
two massage tables side by side
two therapists who will make every shred of stress drop off your bodies
for the measly price of 100.00 (Swedish massage only; deep tissue is 10.00 more
per person)
Or you may request this service in your home for 160.00 per couple (within a 20 mi
radius of our office. An additional charge will be applied for travel if you are

What a wonderful Anniversary Gift! And hey, if you're in the doghouse, we can
almost guarantee this'll get you out.

work is usually performed with the client fully clothed and is aimed at bringing
body, mind and spirit into balance. Energy work is helpful pre- and post-surgery
to assist healing, and can uplift the spirit and energy of those suffering chronic or
terminal illness. Emotional stress issues are often released through receiving
energy work.

FOR YOU.
There you have it, our wonderful menu of services. We can customize a package
deal for you if you desire to have more than one service in one day.
We desire that our clients take an active part in their wellness. You may be asked
to drink more water, to do some stretching, and/or any number of things we can
work together on. We do not diagnose; we do not prescribe. We DO sometimes
make referrals, either to another therapist on our staff that we feel would benefit
your particular problem, or to another health care professional such as a
physician, chiropractor, acupuncturist, naturopath, or mental health professional.
If you are undecided about the treatment you wish to receive, give us a call. We
will happily answer all your questions. Our mission is to satisfy each and every
client. Our business is built on repeat clients and referrals from clients. We
couldn't begin to pay for the amount of advertising that we receive from plain
goodwill and word-of-mouth. We genuinely appreciate the opportunity to serve
you, and we thank you for choosing THERA-SSAGE.
OUTCALLS are available with prior notice. We are usually not able to
accomodate spur-of-the-moment requests. We do have arrangements with a
number of Bed and Breakfasts in the area. We will only send a male therapist, or a
male and female for the purpose of doing a couple's massage, to a hotel or motel.
We do NOT send female massage therapists alone to hotels or motels. We are also
glad to come to performance and athletic venues. We may ask you to guarantee
outcalls with a credit card number at our discretion, if you are not already a client
of ours. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
CORPORATE MASSAGE is another service we offer. We are happy to come to
your office or plant to massage your employees and staff members. We can be
hired by the day or the hour for chair massage or work on the table, if you have the
space for us to set up in. Please call us with the details of your location, your
desired day and times, the number of people you want massaged, whether you
want table or chair work, and the amount of time you would like us to spend there.
We'll consider all the variables and give you a price quote. Remember, happy
employees are productive employees! You'll get a tax deduction and look like the
boss of the century at the same time! We'll be happy to provide you with
references of companies we have done corporate massage for in the past.
In the event you need to cancel an appointment, we require at least 4
hours notice or we will bill you for the appointment. We have a waiting
list and we need ample time to call someone and give your
appointment away.



Your Chakras might be
spinning wildly out of
balance. You'd better
get that taken care of
right away! Seriously,
if you have never
experienced energy
work, you are cheating
yourself out of a
wonderful experience.
We believe the awesome
power of touch can heal
the world, one body at a
time.
