The Body Kneads Massage

A Personalized massage experience combining several massage techniques that focus on your specific needs. Your therapist can help you decide what your "Body Kneads".

Swedish

During traditional Swedish massage, the muscles are stroked and kneaded to encourage them to relax, to release toxins, and to improve circulation. Sometimes a heavy pressure is necessary to get muscles to release and relax.

Deep Tissue

Deep Tissue massage uses slow strokes and deep pressure across the grain of the tense muscles. It is applied with more pressure and to deeper layers of muscle than Swedish massage. There is evidence that deep tissue massage helps break up and eliminate scar tissue.

Reflexology

Reflexology follows the principle that there are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears that correspond to every organ, gland or muscular/skeletal part of the body. Gentle pressure is applied to these reflex points in order to help promote normalization of body functions. .Reflexology treats the body holistically and can be considered as a very useful complementary therapy.

Sports Massage

Sports Massage is used primarily for the serious athlete who trains continuously. It focuses on the muscles relevant to the particular athletic activity. A pre- or post-workout massage stimulates muscle mass, improves circulation, and increases power and flexibility through stretching.

Pregnancy Massage

Whether you're experiencing first-trimester morning sickness, second-trimester backaches and leg cramps, or third-trimester swelling and sleeplessness, many of the discomforts, aches and pains that accompany the joy of pregnancy can be eased or alleviated with therapeutic bodywork.

At Body Kneads, a number of our licensed massage therapists are highly trained experts at working with pregnant women. They have the experience to provide comfort for you and protection for your baby. So enjoy a relaxing therapeutic massage and the peace of mind that only the quality and compassionate care of one of South Florida 's finest facilities can provide.

As beneficial as it is, pregnancy massage does not replace the need for appropriate medical and/or prenatal care. Talk to your healthcare provider before pursuing massage therapy during your prenatal and postpartum period.

Aromatherapy

Because your sense of smell is linked directly to your brain, Aromatherapy immediately affects your mood. Essences from the essential oils of flowers, plants and herbs are blended to create scents that alter stress levels, energy levels and sensuality. Massaging these oils into your skin, adding them to a bath or applying them before a shower intensifies this effect - you will notice the difference in seconds.

Aromatherapy has been around since the time of the Pharaohs, but today the art has been perfected through the blending of oils to amplify their energy. After many years of research, our experts have developed a special selection of these blends, each designed for a specific purpose.

Select from any of these potent blends to be incorporated into your massage:
