Crystal specializes in therapeutic massage including neuromuscular, oncology and prenatal, postpartum and doula (during labor and delivery, for comfort and support). She has been a licensed massage therapist since 2013.

Neuromuscular therapy uses pressure to release areas of strain in the muscle, and is used to treat back pain, hip pain, knee pain, tendonitis, headaches, calf cramps and more. Locating and releasing areas of strain can be uncomfortable, so there will be discussion during the session, and feedback from the client is helpful. The entire session will be spent addressing all of the muscles associated with the primary complaint; therefore, an hour is usually spent in one area of the body. 

Oncology massage involves modifying massage techniques to safely work with complications of cancer and treatment. Anyone who has received cancer treatment—from active treatment to recovery, survivorship, and at the end of life­—are best served by a massage therapist trained in oncology massage. Oncology massage clients need a referral from their oncologist, and an in-depth medical history is necessary so an appropriate treatment plan can be designed specially for each individual client.

Pregnancy massage helps ease pain and discomfort arising from the increased demand and strain on the body during pregnancy. Benefits of pregnancy massage include but are not limited to: improved circulation, reduced stress on the skeletal system, reduced muscular discomfort, and improved hormonal stability and function. When your therapist has specialized training, massage during pregnancy is typically considered safe. However, there are some conditions or complications that would prohibit massage and you may need written permission from your medical provider.

Kaylee specializes in myofascial massage, reflexology, sports massage, lymphedema and isolated stretching and strengthening. She has been a licensed massage therapist since 2018.

Myofascial release targets pain believed to arise from myofascial (connective) tissue. During a myofascial massage session, a therapist locates myofascial areas that feel stiff and fixed under light pressure. In many cases, regular myofascial massage is recommended to experience the full benefit of this practice.

Reflexology is the application of pressure to areas on the feet or hands, which results in relaxation and healing to corresponding organs and systems throughout the body. Studies have shown reflexology as a method of alleviating pain, stress and anxiety, as well as improving relaxation and quality of sleep.

Sports massage is helpful for people with active, physically demanding lifestyles. By focusing on joints, muscles, soft tissue, tendons and ligaments that are impacted by a client’s activities, sports massage can be highly beneficial to active bodies. This form of massage is designed for recovery, performance enhancement (such as improved range of motion and flexibility), relaxation, and even improving sleep. 

Isolated stretching and strengthening is a method of muscle lengthening and fascial release that improves circulation and increases the elasticity of muscle joints and fascia, helping to prevent or even treat injuries and pain. This practice can also enhance strength, flexibility and the health of joints and soft tissue.
