Spa Concepts
At Strand Inc. we up hold to the concept of catering to the needs of each guest. Every massage session combines numerous modalities in order to meet those needs. We encourage our guests to embrace a healthier lifestyle that consists of lower stress levels and a balanced body. In order to do this, our therapists continue their education so they can serve the client more efficiently. After a visit to our spa, we believe the client will leave with a greater enthusiasm towards maintaining their health and the urge to spread the idea of wellness as a continuos process. We encourage all guests to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early so the therapist can take the time to talk to them and learn their needs. Proper dialogue is important with the patient/practitioner relationship, so please inform us of any changes in life situation, especially in regards to physical health.

Swedish Massage
Swedish massage uses circulatory strokes and constant motion. This is great for improving circulation through the circulatory and lymphatic systems. This modality is a great way to prepare the body for other types of work such as deep tissue or just for relaxation.

Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is a slow focused form of massage that allows the therapist to move past superficial layers and target deeper muscles. As focus is applied, with and against the direction of the muscle fibers, adhesions, and acidic build up within the muscle are released and eliminated from the body. This allows improvement in range of motion and proper balance between muscle groups.

Myofascial Release
This modality introduces the client to a whole new realm of massage. Myofascial release uses no lubrication and works to stretch the connective tissue, called fascia, in order to improve movement and posture. This technique is very slow and is less invasive in comparison to Swedish or deep tissue. Myofascial release helps to guide the body out of negative holding patterns, so the client is encouraged to commit to frequent sessions in order to break old habits within the tissue.

Chakra Balancing
Developed from ancient India, a chakra balancing session works to release blockages that occur in the energetic aspects of our body. The energetic body is viewed as being just as real as the physical body, only at a higher vibration making it visible to the optical sense. In a chakra balancing session, the therapist uses hands on and off techniques, mixed with aroma therapy, to balance the flow of energy in the body allowing a greater sense of mental clarity and physical vitality.

Stone Massage
In a stone massage session, the client has the option to choose from all hot stones or a hot and cold combination. The variation in temperature is used in a way that meets the needs of the clients specific condition. After a brief consultation the therapist will be able to suggest what form of treatment will work best.
