DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Deep tissue massage offers both physical and psychological benefits. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues.

In Itka's deep tissue treatment, she incorporates techniques such as neuromuscular technique, soft tissue release and trigger point therapy to provide the most efficient relief from pain and tension but also induce a deep relaxation.

She encourages her clients to use a simple breathing technique to enhance the relaxation of the muscles and to release any stagnant energy, pain and even emotions held in the body’s tissues.

SPORT/REMEDIAL MASSAGE

Sport massage caters to athletic patients of all types, professional or amateurs and people who exercise regularly and have an active lifestyle. Sport massage therapy is a more focused deep tissue massage and may focus on a certain area of the body e.g. shoulders, neck or hips and legs.

It can help with an intense or chronic pain and tension felt in the body, recovering after injury or repetitive strain injury. Sports massage techniques use deep tissue and stretching movements on the muscle-tendon junctions to provide certain advantages to enhance athletic performance.

INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE

Indian Head massage is based on the Ayurvedic system of healing in India. Itka uses a range of different massage pressures and rhythms to stimulate the head, face, neck, upper back and shoulders and  release any stress and pain from these areas.

The treatment might help with eye strain, headaches, migraines and relieve sinusitis. It can improve concentration and sleep patterns, stimulate hair growth and enhance lymphatic drainage from the head and face. It can induce a deep state of relaxation, peace, tranquility and detachment but also a high level of alertness.
