Therapeutic Massage in Austin
Our therapeutic massage category includes techniques designed to address musculoskeletal concerns, like back pain, muscle tension, injuries, overuse syndromes, tendonitis, and chronic stress. All our therapists have training in one or more advanced therapeutic modalities and will be able to address specific concerns, but some techniques are more suited to particular issues than others. If you are dealing with chronic pain or injuries, consider Pain Management, and for specialty techniques for other specific concerns, take a look at our specialty massage services.
The Myo
Our most popular service is The Myo, a customized blend of deep tissue and relaxing massage which allows you and your therapist to design a session that focuses on what you need most. For our younger clients, we also offer The Myo Jr.
Deep Tissue
Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and fascia to give longer lasting relief of pain and tension. While deep tissue massage can be very deep if needed, it’s not really about the pressure: it’s about precision and working on the right layers to get the best results.
The Myo Jr.
The Myo Jr. massage is for clients aged 5-16. Booking this service ensures that you are placed with a therapist who has experience working with younger clients. Similarly to The Myo, the Myo Jr. will incorporate both Deep Tissue (therapeutic) and Swedish (relaxation) massage as needed to address the client’s needs.
Ashiatsu
Ashiatsu massage (often called Ashi) is a deep style of massage in which the therapist uses their feet to provide deep, broad pressure. Bars suspended from the ceiling allow the therapist to balance and control their weight. It’s a great choice for those with dense muscle mass or anyone who loves deep pressure.
