Neck Injuries

Ah, a stiff neck—that’s no fun at all! Tension Massage is well-equipped to address that. . Let me outline how we can help:

Assessment & Technique: a brief assessment of your neck and shoulders to identify the root of the problem—whether it’s tight upper trapezius muscles, stiff cervical spine joints, or something else. Based on that, he’ll tailor the massage using techniques like:

• Deep Tissue Massage: To release knots and adhesions in the deeper layers of muscle tissue. This is particularly effective for chronic stiffness.
• Trigger Point Therapy: Focusing on specific “trigger points” (tender spots) that refer pain to other areas, like your neck or head. Releasing these can provide significant relief.
• Myofascial Release: Addressing restrictions in the fascia (connective tissue) surrounding muscles, which can limit movement and cause stiffness.

Aromatherapy Boost: Since you’re dealing with discomfort, we can add aromatherapy to ease the pain and promote relaxation. Eucalyptus or peppermint oils are great for muscle aches—they have anti-inflammatory properties and can help improve circulation. Lavender is also a good choice for calming any associated headaches or stress.

Pricing & Duration: A 60-minute massage focused on neck and shoulder tension typically costs $90 (without add-ons). We can adjust the duration based on your needs—a shorter 30-minute session ($55) might be enough for acute stiffness, while a longer 90-minute session ($120) could provide deeper relief. The aromatherapy add-on is an extra $15.

Post-Massage Care: Anthony will also give you some simple stretches and self-care tips to help prevent the stiffness from returning—like proper sleep posture adjustments or gentle range-of-motion exercises.
