Abbercromby Suites is a Bed and
Breakfast that believes in the value of massage therapy
and relaxing for a "getaway" from the real world.
Instead of a day-spa we believe it takes a longer time to truly
benefit from therapy. You will spend the night and sleep letting
nature take over and heal your body and your inner self. We
offer therapeutic massage, neuromuscular and myofascial therapy,
Swedish massage, reflexology, sports injury massage and trigger
point massage. Aroma therapy and essential oil treatments are
some of our most popular treats. We take great pride in making a
difference in your well-being!
Our facility offers a wide variety of massage therapy styles. We
have 4 massage therapists to choose from for your utmost
pleasure. Rates range from $50 to $80 an hour. Massages must be
booked 24 hours in advance and cancellation must be made 6 hours
prior to avoid any charges. We provide fluffy white robes for
your utmost comfort.
Examples of types of massages are listed below:
Deep Tissue
Using deep tissue techniques such as finger, elbow and knuckles
teaching the client to bring conscious attention to their body
while fine tuning their body mechanics.
Reflexology Treatment
Reflexology originated with the Chinese and is based on the idea
that stimulation of particular points on the surface of the body
has an effect on other areas or organs of the body. In the early
1930’s Eunice Ingham systematized the techniques that
focuses mainly on the hands and feet. This is the popular
technique in which we use today in massage.
Light massage or Swedish massage for those sensitive to
pressure. Swedish massage is based on Western concepts of
anatomy and physiology and employs the traditional manipulative
techniques of effleurage, petrissage, vibration, friction and
tapotement. The Swedish system also employs movements that can
be slow or gentile, vigorous or bracing according to the results
the practitioner wishes to achieve.
Sports Massage
Sports massage refers to a method of massage especially designed
to prepare an athlete for an upcoming event and to aid in the
body's regenerative and restorative capacities following a
rigorous workout or competition.
Maternity Massage
Mothers-to-be can now smile, not only in anticipation of the
upcoming event, but because of the comfort and relief of
receiving a massage. Maternity massage may be enjoyed after the
first trimester of pregnancy and may help ease aches and pains
while reducing stress.
Canyon Stone Massage
Relax as you feel the warm and cool stones permeate your muscle
tissue in the modern version of an ancient healing technique.
Smooth stones are used to do deep, soothing tissue work.
What to expect during a massage therapy session ...
We have very experienced male and female Registered Massage
Therapist. Generally a massage is 60 minutes in length. Clients
are asked to remove as much clothing as one is comfortable with
removing. You then rest on a padded massage table. To respect
personal privacy and provide adequate warmth, the client is
covered by draping a sheet or towel so that only the part of the
body being massaged is exposed at any given time.
