Remedial massage is frequently indicated for conditions such as stiff necks, headaches, sports injuries, sciatica, and carpal tunnel.
Hot and Cold Stones
Relaxing but also invigorating, this type of massage utilizes the weight of alternating hot and cold smooth stones against the body, which the massage therapist uses to massage your tissues. Imagine the gentle caress of a roller-ball along with the stimulating effect of different temperatures! The hot stone helps release the body's tension while cool stones soothe tired muscles.

Although it sounds mysterious, yoga and meditation are recognized types of energy work.
