Swedish MassageSubject to copyrights

This is likely the most common type of massage that comes to mind when people think of a massage. It includes long, fluid strokes used to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Lotions are typically used to reduce friction and soothe the skin. This technique will ease you into relaxation, increase the oxygen level in the blood, improve your circulation and flexibility and relieve stress throughout your entire body.

Deep Tissue Massage

Subject to copyrights A deep tissue massage at Vitality Unlimited Spa is very similar to a Swedish Massage, but targeted on specific “tight” or “sore” spots making it an overall workout for the body.  One specific difference in this massage technique is that your therapist will use massage strokes across the grain of the muscle instead of with the grain to work out knots or tension in the muscle tissue. Because this massage uses more pressure on tense muscles, it may be slightly uncomfortable and can cause soreness that may last a couple of days before desired relief is achieved. This type of massage is highly beneficial for athletes.

Couples MassageSubject to copyrights

A couples massage is a perfect way to introduce a spouse, friend, sibling, or parent to the benefits of massage. Simply having someone with you the first time can be reassuring and can relieve apprehensions about the massage process. Our couples massage is performed in a private room with two massage tables and two therapists – one for each of you. Each person is covered in his or her own linens to maintain his or her privacy. For partners, this is a great experience for bonding and connecting on an spiritual level.

Prenatal Massage

During pregnancy, a woman’s body is under extraordinary stress, especially considering the muscular, skeletal, circulatory and glandular systems. Massage is a drug-free form of pain relief, which is vitally important for expecting women. It enhances the mother’s ability to relax and promotes movement to help with exercise and to improve circulation. More common benefits also include relief from muscular cramps, backaches and headaches while reducing swelling/edema and overall fatigue.

Our staff utilizes a special bolstering system to support the mother and baby securely during the massage. Appropriate lotions and essential oils are incorporated to enhance the overall experience with comfort and safety in mind. Both mother and baby will benefit from this specialized massage. NOTE: Women experiencing a high-risk pregnancy should consult their physician before scheduling an appointment.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy™Subject to copyrights

Cranial-Sacral Therapy is a noninvasive form of alternative medicine related to the membranes and movement of the fluid surrounding the skull and spinal cord. Our therapists gently release any restrictions of the nerve passages by restoring misaligned bones to their proper placement. This process is thought to eliminate any negative effects of stress as well as provide relief from back and neck pain, temporomandibular joint disorder – the inflammation of the joints around the lower jaw and skull, and migraine headaches.

“I have been getting weekly massages from Chris for a long time. Of course they have always felt wonderful but it wasn’t until this summer when I have been traveling and unable to get them regularly that I fully realized their benefits. My joints have tightened up and my muscles ache. Hopefully with regular massage I will return to my old pain-free self!” – Nancy

Chris– Thanks for agreeing to be my massage therapist. Over the last year you have helped me remain flexible and in balance. By doing so, some of my golf buddies have grinded their teeth, said some things under their breath and out loud. I enjoy it when they get that way! I hope you’re able to keep me in this condition for some time to come. Thanks for all of your hard work.”Marvin

Amy approaches a massage in a holistic manner, inquiring about the client’s state of being physically as well as asking about family and work. She begins the session with a moment of breathing together which makes a connection between client and therapist. She assures my comfort during the massage and offers advice and exercises to combat chronic pain issues. She demonstrates a thorough understanding of kinesiology. The best compliment I can give is to have referred family and friends to Amy.” Peggy

“I am a licensed cosmetologist and have lived in large cities so I expect a lot from a spa. My salon does not provide spa services so I tried Vitality. I must say that I have never been happier with a spa. Every time I go I know that every staff member is invested in making my visit wonderful. I recently had two major surgeries and Nelly is caring and always makes me feel so comfortable. Bonnie is also amazing and so sweet. I just want to make sure that the management is aware that they are both assets to your company. I am a happy and loyal client!” – Mandy
