Relaxing Massage
Massage therapy at Ataraxia offers a comprehensive approach to whole or part body treatments, utilizing a variety of techniques such as pressure, stroking, kneading, and rubbing movements. Our skilled therapists provide specialized massages tailored to meet your specific needs, whether you seek relief from chronic pain, enhanced athletic performance, or simply a relaxing experience.
A relaxation massage at Ataraxia involves gentle, full-hand movements over the skin, following the muscle contours (soft tissues) of the body. This full-body treatment is intended to be a pleasurable experience, focusing on relaxation and soothing, rather than addressing chronic pain or underlying conditions.
The calming effect of our therapist’s gentle movements on the body’s soft tissues helps to reduce stress and pain, promoting a healing environment within the body. The gentle nature of the massage soothes the nervous system, contributing to an overall sense of relaxation and well-being.
Regular relaxation massages can alleviate muscle tension caused by postural issues, such as sitting at a desk for long hours, or muscular fatigue from overuse during exercise. This helps to disperse lactic acid buildup, reducing fatigue and discomfort. Our trained massage therapists can isolate specific muscles or muscle groups to treat localized pain. Improved circulation helps reduce inflammation, pain, and recovery time, enhancing energy levels. The calming atmosphere, skin-to-skin contact, and therapeutic benefits of massage can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, improving overall mental wellness. By reducing stress hormones and lowering blood pressure, relaxation massage boosts the body’s immune response, helping to ward off disease and infection more efficiently.
