During a Swedish massage session, the therapist uses long, flowing strokes, kneading, and circular motions on the superficial layers of the muscles along with friction, tapping, vibration, and stretching. The primary goal of Swedish massage is to increase blood circulation and promote the flow of oxygen in the body, while also releasing muscle tension and promoting the removal of toxins.
The techniques employed in Swedish massage are designed to target the entire body, and the session typically covers the back, neck, shoulders, arms, legs, and feet. I, the therapist, may apply various pressures, from light to medium, based on the individual's preferences and needs.
Swedish massage can help alleviate muscle tension, reduce stress and anxiety, improve circulation, increase flexibility, and promote a sense of deep relaxation. It can also aid in the recovery from injuries, relieve chronic pain, and enhance overall physical and mental well-being.
Overall, Swedish massage offers a gentle and nurturing experience that aims to promote relaxation, release muscle tension, and enhance overall physical and mental wellness.
NOTE: This is a not a full body massage.
This massage will only take place in prone (face down) position.
Various techniques are used such as; Effleurage, petrissage, friction, compressions, and tapotement. Deeper pressure (up to medium) may be applied if client requests it.
Techniques can vary by client.
During a deep tissue massage, I will begin by applying gentle pressure and warming the muscles with various techniques such as effleurage (long, sweeping strokes) and petrissage (kneading and squeezing motions). This helps to prepare the body for deeper work.
As the session progresses, the I will use my hands, knuckles, elbows, forearms, and sometimes even specialized tools to apply more focused and intense pressure to specific areas of tension or discomfort. I may also incorporate slow and deliberate strokes along the grain of the muscles to help break down adhesions (tight knots of tissue) and promote better circulation.
While deep tissue massage can be intense and may cause some discomfort, it should never be painful. It is important to communicate openly about your comfort level, as I can adjust the pressure accordingly. Please feel comfortable to speak. It’s a safe space here.
As the deeper layers of muscle and tissue are worked on, you may experience sensations such as a deep stretching feeling, a mild burning sensation, or even some temporary soreness. However, these sensations are often followed by a profound sense of relief and relaxation as the tension is released and the muscles become more supple.
Deep tissue massage can have several benefits, including:
1. Pain relief: By targeting the deeper layers of muscles, deep tissue massage can help alleviate chronic pain and discomfort caused by conditions like muscle strains, repetitive strain injuries, and postural imbalances.
1. Increased flexibility: The focused pressure and stretching techniques used in deep tissue massage can help improve joint mobility and flexibility by breaking down scar tissue and adhesions.
1. Stress reduction: Deep tissue massage stimulates the production of endorphins, which are the body's natural feel-good hormones. This can help reduce stress and promote a sense of calm and relaxation.
1. Improved posture: By releasing tension in the muscles and connective tissues, deep tissue massage can help correct postural imbalances, leading to improved body alignment and posture.
1. Enhanced athletic performance: Deep tissue massage is a popular choice among athletes as it can help speed up recovery time, reduce muscle soreness, and improve overall athletic performance.
Overall, a deep tissue massage provides a therapeutic and rejuvenating experience that goes beyond simple relaxation, targeting deep-seated tension and promoting holistic well-being.

Revitalize your body with our 90-minute sports massage, enhanced by complimentary cupping therapy. This session is designed for athletes and active individuals looking to relieve tension and boost performance.
The massage begins with a thorough consultation to assess your specific needs and target areas. I employ deep tissue techniques to release tight muscles, improve circulation, and enhance flexibility.
Incorporating cupping therapy, gentle cups are placed on your skin to create a suction effect, promoting better blood flow and easing muscle knots. This holistic approach not only alleviates soreness but also accelerates recovery, leaving you feeling refreshed.
Enjoy this transformative experience, where the perfect blend of massage and cupping therapy works in harmony to rejuvenate both body and mind.
Cupping therapy offers several benefits for muscle recovery, including:
1. Increased Blood Flow: Cupping helps improve circulation to the affected areas, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to muscles, which aids in recovery.
2. Reduced Muscle Tension: The suction effect can help relax tight muscles and fascia, relieving tension and discomfort.
3. Pain Relief: Many clients report a reduction in pain and soreness, making it easier to return to physical activities.
4. Improved Range of Motion: By loosening tight areas, cupping can enhance flexibility and mobility in the muscles and joints.
5. Enhanced Lymphatic Drainage: Cupping can stimulate the lymphatic system, helping to remove toxins and reduce inflammation.
6. Stress Reduction: The relaxation induced by cupping can lower stress levels, promoting overall recovery and well-being.
7. Faster Recovery from Injuries: By facilitating healing and reducing inflammation, cupping can support quicker recovery from sports-related injuries.
Overall, cupping therapy can be a valuable adjunct to other recovery methods for athletes and active individuals.
What to expect:
•Sensation of Suction: A strong pulling sensation as the cups create suction on the skin.
•Mild Discomfort: Some areas may feel tender or sensitive, but it should not be painful.
•Temporary Marks: Circular marks or bruises where cups were placed, ranging in color from light pink to dark purple, typically fading within a few days.
•Soreness: Mild soreness in the treated areas, similar to post-exercise muscle soreness.
•Releasing Toxins: Some may experience a sense of lightness or detoxification, along with increased thirst.
•Fatigue or Relaxation: A feeling of tiredness or relaxation may follow, often leading to a desire for rest.
•Emotional Release: Some clients report a sense of emotional relief or release, as physical tension often correlates with emotional stress.
By understanding these physical experiences, clients can better prepare for and process their cupping sessions.

Mystic ‘s message was amazing. Very hospitable, offered refreshment upon entering. I received a deep tissue massage . When I say she has great pressure and really can get into those muscles ! I feel brand new. It had been about 6-7 months since getting a massage and I workout regular and I had a lot of trigger points and knots . Which she got out and also communicated through the whole process. Also used cupping and massage gun . Definitely recommend booking with her!! It is worth it !!

Very intuitive. Super warm. Recommend you book as much time as she will allow. Her sessions are perfect at any length but as you will soon find out more time and sessions spent the better. There is good and then there is indescribably amazing. Book and find out what you are missing.

Fabulous massage.. I mean honestly one of the most comforting, focused massages I’ve experienced. Strong enough, soft enough - was touched in muscles I didn’t even know was there. Prish you truly are amazing. Don’t sell yourself short…you’re doing a amazing job I feel 7 pounds lighter and 5 inches taller 😂 PEOPLE GO GET A MASSAGE WITH HER.
P.S Guys it does take place in a home but it’s truly a small little comfortable space and Prisha does a great job at making you feel at home and welcome.. she’s a respectful, respectable, talented young lady. Thanks again Ms Prisha - Hailey G.·
Prisha was awesome.
I met her in Whole Foods just rushing around and ended up having a cute funny interaction with this young lady.
She disclosed she was a LMT and from her vibe alone I was sold. I said I would give it a shot took her info and within 3 weeks I was booked.
10/10
mean I couldn’t have asked for a better massage, I didn’t really have any trouble areas besides shoulders and neck however once she started massaging I didn’t realize how many areas of my body needed attention. I literally could move my neck again. I also cried and Prisha made me feel so comfortable. She’d always say, “I got you” throughout the massage which really stuck with me and made me feel that she was here with me. She didn’t just demand “relax” it was like you could really tell there’s love there. How many people in this world make you feel that way? Especially without knowing them… she truly has a gift. Book here. You guys won’t regret it. She’s so patient and understanding, she did excellent and deserves a nice tip. Also she offers discounts and reward card which I think is just great. Guys book here. - Lance J. Penns·
The therapist (Prisha) is phenomenal. The experience was a mix of small things that made the experience grand. Things like relaxing sounds, being soft spoken, and the aromas catered to the experience and creating a calm environment that added more therapeutic aspects than just a massage can offer. Definitely recommended.
