MASSAGE with MANU & ELIZABETH Did you know that at Cullasaja Club we offer a wide variety of massage treatments? These include Relaxation Massage, Deep Tissue, Ashiatsu, Thai Yoga, Pregnancy Massage, Hot Stones, and Cupping. In addition to these treatments, we also offer spa services such as Body Brush and Body Scrub. What follows is a more detailed explanation of each massage treatment and spa service: Relaxation Massage - uses light to medium pressure to relax the body and mind. Long, gliding strokes are used in the direction of the blood returning to the heart. Relaxation Massage helps relax muscles and increase circulation. Deep Tissue Massage - uses firm pressure to relief muscle tension in deeper layers of connective tissue. Forearms, elbows, and thumbs are used to apply deeper pressure in areas of focus. Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage - uses light to deep pressure. Ashiatsu stems from the Japanese meaning “foot pressure”. Feet are used to massage the neck, back, arms and legs with the client lying face down and the massage therapist either seated or standing holding onto mounted bars. Thai Yoga Massage - combines stretching techniques and massage strokes with the client fully relaxed. The client wears loosely fitted clothes on a massage table or Thai Yoga Mat. Thai Yoga massage sometimes includes client-assisted stretches. Pregnancy Massage - is performed sideling when the client is past the first trimester. Pillows and bolsters are used to keep the client comfortable. Pressure is applied to the level of the client’s comfort. Hot Stone Massage - incorporates warm stones into a Relaxation or Deep Tissue Massage. Stones are placed on the back, palms, and under the neck with the localized heat and weight of stones aiding in muscle relaxation. Warm stones can be utilized to apply deeper pressure in areas of focus.
