Customizing a massage offers personalized therapeutic benefits by allowing the individual to address specific health concerns and preferences. At Garden Retreat Spa, we offer tailored massages for individuals and couples to get a practical approach to rejuvenation and relaxation. Here are ways to customize your Asian massage experience:
Discuss Your Health Concerns
Discussing health concerns with your massage therapist allows them to adapt their techniques to accommodate your needs and boost a comfortable massage experience. For individuals with conditions such as arthritis or recent surgeries, our qualified therapist may use lighter pressure to control discomfort. Clients with sensitive skin, sunburn, or skin conditions may benefit from the gentler massage strokes we offer at Garden Retreat Spa.
The therapist can modify stretching and range of motion techniques if you have limited mobility or joint issues. This approach allows the massage to promote flexibility without causing strain or discomfort. If you’re recovering from an injury, our skilled therapist can use gentle manipulation and movements to promote circulation and flexibility.
Choose The Right Type of Massage
You can customize your Asian massage experience by choosing a technique that meets your needs. At Garden Retreat Spa, we offer Ayurvedic, Tui Na, Shiatsu, Korean, and Thai massages. Korean massage features pressure point therapy, stretching, and kneading to lower muscle tension. Thai massage combines yoga, acupressure, and assisted stretching to promote relaxation and lower joint stiffness.
Tui Na massage employs manipulation techniques such as pressing, rubbing, kneading, rolling, and brushing to stimulate the body’s energy channels and promote the flow of Qi. During an Ayurvedic massage, our masseuses apply warm herbal oil to your body and use gentle, rhythmic strokes to detoxify the body and improve circulation. Shiatsu, a Japanese massage therapy, involves applying pressure to specific points on the body using fingers, thumbs, and palms.
Set a Personalized Atmosphere
Dim lights can create a soothing ambiance and help you relax. Our rooms feature candles, lamps, and dimmable overhead lights to create a calming atmosphere, allowing you to rest your eyes. During a massage, our masseuses play nature sounds to enhance comfort and relax your mind.
You can share your preferences for your soundtrack or request silence to customize your massage experience. Our therapists can adjust the heating or cooling settings based on your needs. Some people enjoy a warmer room, while others prefer a cooler environment.
Explore Heat Therapy
Our massage therapists can apply warm towels to different areas of the body before or during the massage. This can help to increase blood flow, relax muscles, and prepare the body for the massage strokes. Some massage tables or pads are equipped with a heating element. The warmth from the table or pad radiates to the body during the massage, providing a continuous heat source. We can adjust the temperatures to enhance your comfort if you are sensitive to heat.
