Swedish and Deep Tissue

Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when most people think about massage. Swedish massage uses long gliding strokes. The primary goal of Swedish massage is to relax the entire body. Additional benefits include increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, easing tension in muscles, and improving circulation & flexibility.

Deep tissue massage is similar to Swedish massage but the focus of the pressure is on deep layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia. The deeper pressure targets and helps release painful “trouble spots”. Deep tissue massage can help relive chronic patterns of pain and tension.

Hawaiian Hot Stone Massage

Indigenous Hawaiian healers have used heated stones for hundreds of years to address the many levels of healing necessary to help restore balance in the mind, body, and soul. Heated stones are laid on the body in strategic positions to promote circulation while the skilled practitioner uses smooth heated stones as tools to achieve the desired treatment results. It is very effective for any condition for which heat is indicated. The best hot stones treatments feel as if the warm stones and hands “merge” to create a profoundly relaxing and grounding full body experience.

Motor Vehicle Accident Recovery

Massage is integral for relieving symptoms related to a motor vehicle accident (MVA). When treating trauma associated with a car accident, Grover often integrates various modalities into a session depending on what is needed for pain relief. Each person’s path to recovery is unique and we will come up with a treatment plan that is best for you.

Auto insurance often covers massage therapy for injuries sustained from your car accident. Before receiving massage, you will need to open and file a claim with your insurance company. You will also need a prescription from your chiropractor or doctor before receiving treatment. Grover can refer you to a doctor or chiropractor if you don’t currently have someone you are seeing.

Please bring your prescription or referral from your doctor/chiropractor, claim number, and name and number of your insurance company and contact information of your claim adjuster to your first appointment.
