Pregnancy puts significant stress on the body, making this massage beneficial at any stage of the gestation period.

This massage is centered around Mom to help her relax and ease discomfort.

About Elysium Massage
Founded in 2023, Elysium Massage is a woman-owned and operated massage therapy business for clients seeking healing massage relief, reflexology, and relaxation.

Stephanie takes pride in delivering personalized and personable service, understanding and catering to each client’s unique needs.
Stephanie’s first client was her husband, Albert, who regularly suffered from neck and back pain due to his work in the roofing industry. After witnessing the relaxation and pain relief that he experienced first-hand, she knew that she could help others with the stress and pain caused by:

It is recommended to get a massage regularly, ideally once a week or at least once every two weeks, depending on your specific needs and lifestyle. Consistent massages can alleviate pain, aid in muscle healing, and prevent future muscle tension and stress.
Before your appointment, take a warm shower or bath to relax your muscles. Drink plenty of water before your appointment to hydrate. Avoid eating a heavy meal before your massage session as it may cause discomfort during the massage.

Your massage therapist will guide you through the process and ensure that you feel comfortable throughout the session. You can choose between different types of massages, such as Swedish, deep tissue, or hot stone, depending on your preferences and needs. During the massage, most clients experience deep relaxation and may even fall asleep.
A Swedish massage is a popular massage technique that involves long, flowing strokes, kneading, and circular movements on the top layers of muscles. The benefits of getting a Swedish massage include relaxation, stress relief, improved circulation, pain relief, and increased flexibility. A massage therapist’s hands are softer when working tense muscles during a Swedish massage.
Deep tissue massages address multiple muscle layers, focusing on trigger points known for causing discomfort while easing chronic muscle tightness and pain.
Trigger points can be stubborn to unwind, especially for clients experiencing muscle soreness from heavy lifting or manual labor.
Pregnancy can be very stressful on the body. A pregnancy massage is a gentle massage meant to help a pregnant woman relax and release tension. A pregnancy massage can be beneficial during any part of the pregnancy term but many pregnant women opt to get a massage closer to the end of the term when their feet and legs hurt the most.
During a Swedish or Deep Tissue massage, a massage therapist may use heated stones to massage and relax targeted muscles. This technique helps the muscles in the body relax to prepare for a massage. Body muscles become more pliable sooner and help speed the process of relaxation when hot stones are used during massage.
A geriatric massage caters to older individuals based on their comfort levels with various massage techniques. Those less active may require gentle pressure on sensitive areas during the massage to address age-related muscle aches.
Yes, massage therapy can be suitable for most people, but individual circumstances and medical conditions should be considered before undergoing treatment. We evaluate every client’s needs before performing a massage and will make referrals to doctors and emergency care as needed.
Massage therapy can help with specific health conditions by improving circulation, relieving muscle tension, and enhancing overall relaxation. It can also aid in alleviating pain, improving flexibility, and promoting better sleep quality. However, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating massage therapy into your treatment plan for some health conditions.
Yes, massage therapy can help with stress and anxiety by promoting relaxation, reducing muscle tension, and triggering the release of endorphins, which are known to help improve mood and decrease stress levels.
Your healing needs are our priority. We will ask questions to qualify you for massage therapy. We will also ask questions about your current pain level and if medical attention has been sought. To prevent injury, we will not provide massage services until you have properly healed from an injury and received medical clearance.
