Japanese Fumi Massage

What is a FUMI Massage?

This is a technique from Japan that is a fusion of chiropractor and shiatsu massage therapy using the foot & bodyweight to perform a deep tissue massage to help release muscle tension, knots & discomfort.

Fascia is the connective tissue that forms a whole-body, it's a continuous 3-D matrix of structural support and wraps around every single cell, connecting cells to organs, organs to organ systems, and interpenetrates every muscle in the entire body.

We define our FUMI Massage technique as manual therapy characterized by sustained, oblique, and high-tack contact with the aim of stimulating a stretch response in the fascia associated with muscle tissue.

This unique massage technique can help to treat muscle pain, inflammation and restriction, by relaxing contracted muscles, stimulating length and hydration in the tissue, and improving circulation and your immune system.

Does a FUMI Massage hurt?

Even though the thought of deep pressure from the fingers, elbows and feet might seem painful, it’s actually quite the opposite as each session is tailored to each individual. Whether you like gentle or a more firm pressure applied, this is always discussed beforehand to suit your needs.

While at times there might be some slight discomfort, be rest assured that pressure is adjusted throughout the session to ensure a relaxing and enjoyable experience, some customers are so relaxed they fall asleep.

What do you wear to a FUMI massage?

We typically recommend that you wear soft comfortable clothes, the softer the better. The session takes place on a soft padded surface, so wearing something ideal would ensure there’s no discomfort from your clothes.

What is a décolletage massage?

Pronounced day-kōl-tay, this special massage focuses on the area of the upper chest up to the jawline across the shoulders and the upper back. This unique massage motion helps to rejuvenate sagging skin, removes dead cells and helps distribute the collagen that holds the skin firmly on the neck. A décolleté massage is also an excellent stress and anxiety buster.

Décolleté massages can also stimulate the lymphatic vessels in the area. The proper functioning of the lymphatic system is critical to our body’s ability to drain fluids, detoxify, regenerate tissues, filter out toxins and foreign substances, and maintain a healthy immune system.

When done in combination with a facial massage, a décolleté massage helps reduce sinus pressure problems, breathing problems and congestion by increasing circulation and breaking up thick mucus.

What results can I expect?

Our Skincare Infusion Facial treatment will leave your skin looking radiant, hydrated and glowing.

For the greatest improvement and long lasting results for your skin, we recommend ongoing treatments at least once a month or as recommended.

Aromatherapy Massage

What is aromatherapy massage good for?

Our Aromatherapy Massage is a relaxing full-body essential oil massage that combines a series of stretching, compressing, gliding, and cupping motions. It also helps to improve the flow of lymphatic fluid throughout your body which in turn improves circulation and boosts your immune system.

Not only is it a full body massage, it's an emotional healing and relaxation experience. It may not feel as intense as a deep tissue Fumi massage, but it’s actually working quite deep in the body.

If you simply need a relaxing massage to ease and clear the mind, this is one we would recommend.

What is a lymph massage?

This particular type of massage uses a series of massage techniques, including stretching, compressing, gliding, and cupping motions.‌

Light rhythmic movements stimulate the lymphatic system without pressing hard on the vessel. They make the lymph fluid move easily through the nodes and tissues, making sure the fluid doesn't get trapped anywhere.

Lymph massage is a useful technique in treating lymphedema and other health conditions. If you think you have symptoms of trapped lymph fluid in the body, please talk to your doctor first if this type of massage is right for you.

What oil do you use?

We use grape seed essential oil for our Aromatherapy Massage, and an optional almond oil is available on request.
