What massage therapy treats
Massage treats superficial and deep muscle layers and the connective tissue around them. It is used to treat and prevent injury and pain, increase flexibility, improve circulation and support a sense of wellbeing through relaxation.
Massage is one of the oldest documented healthcare practices, referenced in Chinese medical texts more than 4,000 years old and recognized in Western medicine since Hippocrates. At Renu we use those same principles, applied with modern anatomical understanding, to normalize tissue, improve circulation and restore movement at any life stage.
Which massage style suits you
Choose by what you are feeling, not by name. If you are unsure, book a general massage and your therapist will blend techniques after a short conversation.
- Swedish massage: gentle, full-body, flowing strokes with light to medium pressure. Ideal if you are new to massage, carrying a lot of tension, or sensitive to touch.
- Deep tissue massage: slow strokes, direct pressure and friction across the grain of the muscle to release chronic patterns of tension.
- Sports massage: Swedish and deep tissue techniques adapted to training, performance and recovery from injury.
- Massage and lymphatic combination: therapeutic muscle work paired with manual lymphatic drainage to optimize the lymphatic system in the same session.
- Table Thai massage: stretching, acupressure and rhythmic compression performed on the table, fully clothed, to improve flexibility and restore energy.
- RAPID NeuroFascial Reset (upper body): precise techniques that work with the nervous system and fascia to release neck, shoulder, jaw and headache-related restriction. Performed on dry skin as a standalone treatment.
