FULCRUM MASSAGE
MODALITIES
SWEDISH
Swedish massage is the basis of all massage modalities. This technique aims to promote relaxation by releasing muscle tension and is gentler than deep tissue massage, and better suited for people interested in relaxation and tension relief.
TRIGGER POINT THERAPY (NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY)
Neuromuscular massage therapy (NMT) is a form of soft tissue massage that aims to alleviate chronic muscle and nervous system disorders and problems. It is mainly used to address trigger points, circulation, nerve compression, postural problems and repetitive movement injuries.
​
NMT is considered one of the "deeper" massage modalities because it targets the deeper layers of tissue, and not because the pressure utilized is "deep". By thoroughly warming the tissues, the therapist can access problem areas that would have otherwise been elusive.
MYOFASCIAL MASSAGE
Myofascial Massage is a  manipulative treatment used to release tension in the fascia due to trauma, posture, or inflammation. The therapist employs what is referred to as a "hold", using their hands to "stretch" taut in areas of the body where fascial restriction is detected. The combination of Myofascial release and Neuromuscular Therapy may produce greater pain relief and mobility.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Designed to help athletes before, during and after training. Sports massage may reduce the stress and tension that can build up in the soft tissues of the body during exercise. This form of massage is used to increase endurance and improve performance.
