Chinese Massage  - $60 per hour

Massage as a part of Chinese medical treatment goes back about 4,000 years. Written massage textbooks began to appear as early as the fourth century B.C., along with the earliest Chinese medical texts. Massage appears to have developed alongside both therapeutic exercise (qigong) and acupuncture, as it depends on the same understanding of the meridians and the flow of qi in the human body. The type of massage known as qi healing, or curing with external qi, was developed by master teachers of qigong.
Chinese massage is not intended to be an experience of pampering or relaxation. It is a form of deep tissue therapy that conveys the following benefits:
-speeding the healing of injuries and clearing bruises
-stimulating blood circulation and regulating the nervous system
-removing scar tissue
-easing emotional distress
-increasing flexibility in the joints and improving posture
-relieving chronic pain
-maintaining wellness and functioning as a form of preventive care
-improving athletic performance
-strengthening the body's resistance to disease

Chinese Massage accomplishes its purpose in three ways: it "jump-starts" the activity of qi and blood, it regulates their movement and disperses stagnation, and it removes external causes of blockage.
