If you’re an athlete or extremely physically active, and competing in bodybuilding competitions, Playing football, soccer, hockey, or any sport, then this style of massage is catered to you.
Trigger points are found all around your body. Each muscle has its sets of trigger points. Trigger points are like knots. We apply pressure to these knots/trigger points to help release them over time for long term relief.
These areas are normally painful for most people. This is normally caused by a build up of myofascial tension.
Therapeutic massage therapy is defined as the mobilisation of soft tissue (such as muscle, fascia and body fluids) to restore normal systemic and biomechanical/functional use.

Scrapping, also known as Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese technique that involves metal tools, all different shapes which we use to scrape the skin/soft tissue to better improve micro circulation, heal chronic pain, scar tissue, inflammation and muscle tension.
Swedish Massage therapy is the most basic therapy regarding relaxation. Its much lighter than a deep tissue massage. People who are generally looking to relax will most probably ask for Swedish techniques which are light gentle strokes to help relieve some muscle tension without causing too much pain/discomfort.
