Massage

Massage is the manipulation of superficial layers of muscle and connective tissue to promote relaxation and well-being.

Massage involves acting on and manipulating the body with pressure – structured, unstructured, stationary, or moving – tension, motion, or vibration, done manually or with mechanical aids. Target tissues may include muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, joints, or other connective tissue, as well as lymphatic vessels, or organs of the gastrointestinal system. Massage is applied with the hands, fingers, elbows, knees, forearm, and feet.

At Li's Acupuncture, we provide acupressure, Shiatsu massage, Swedish massage, and Reflexology, for stress relief, or treatment of chronic or acute pain. Treatment is tailored to client's needs.

Acupressure (a blend of "acupuncture" and "pressure") is a complementary medicine technique derived from acupuncture. In acupressure physical pressure is applied to acupuncture points by the hand, elbow, or with various devices.

We offer acupressure as well as 'lighter' massage techniques.
