Whether your goal is to completely relax with a slow, soothing massage, relieve muscular aches, pain and chronic tension, have a more comfortable pregnancy, or improve your sports performance massage therapists in Boston can help you achieve your goals. In fact there are several types of massage in Boston. The most commonly offered massage styles in Boston are:
Tui Na Massage - a Chinese method of massage that includes the use of hand techniques to massage the soft tissues of the body, acupressure techniques to directly affect the flow of vital energy (chi), and manipulation techniques to realign the musculoskeletal and ligamentous relationships in the body.
Swedish Massage - perhaps the most common relaxation massage. This relaxing massage technique uses gliding strokes, kneading, friction, and striking strokes along with gentle stretching and rocking.
Neuromuscular Therapy - advanced pain relief targeting specific trigger points in muscles, tendons, and attachment sites.
Deep Tissue Massage - massage of the deeper musculature and connective tissue to release chronic tension and pain. It’s often a firmer massage that is appreciated by experienced clients.
Sports Massage - massage to assist the athlete in preparing for and recovering from sports events.
Trigger Point Therapy - targeted pain relief using specific pressure to release painful knots in muscles.
Prenatal/Pregnancy Massage - massage for the mother-to-be helping her to decrease pain and discomfort throughout the pregnancy.

During the couples massage each member of the couple can choose to receive a different massage from that of their partner.
