The Best Massage Therapy Starts With the Right Technique

Our massage therapists use a range of therapeutic massage techniques based on your needs, activity level and goals. Treatment is commonly used to reduce muscle tension, release trigger point knots, improve circulation and support recovery.

Sessions may focus on breaking down scar tissue and fascia, easing tender points, and restoring normal range of motion to help reduce pain and improve function. Our therapists work closely with you to customize each session.

Massage services we offer:

Deep tissue massage for chronic muscle tension and knots
Sports massage for athletes and active individuals
Lymphatic massage (manual lymphatic drainage) to reduce swelling and support recovery
Prenatal massage with safe, gentle techniques during pregnancy
Cupping therapy to improve circulation and release fascial restrictions
CBD massage for relaxation and muscle recovery
Post-accident massage for soft tissue recovery after car accidents

Deep Tissue Massage:

Deep tissue work focuses on relieving deep muscle tension, fascial restrictions and persistent knots that develop from poor posture, repetitive movement or high training volume. Our therapists often use it to treat trigger points that refer pain to other areas of the body.

It can also help active people manage strains, orthopedic injuries, muscle tightness and compensatory patterns linked to joint instability or movement limits.

Lymphatic Massage:

Lymphatic massage, also known as manual lymph drainage, uses light, rhythmic strokes to encourage natural lymph flow. Our lymphatic therapist uses these gentle techniques to help reduce swelling, improve circulation and support recovery after surgery or a strain.

It may also support overall wellness by promoting healthy fluid movement throughout the body.

Prenatal Massage:

Prenatal massage supports you during pregnancy with safe, gentle techniques that can help reduce swelling, improve circulation and relieve muscle tension.

It is commonly used to ease pregnancy-related discomfort such as lower back pain, SI joint irritation, facet joint discomfort and sciatica, supporting comfort and mobility throughout pregnancy.

Cupping Therapy:

Cupping uses controlled suction to improve blood flow and release soft tissue restrictions. It is commonly used to reduce muscle tension, decrease fascial adhesions and improve range of motion.

At our clinic, cupping is performed with modern suction methods rather than fire-based cups, often as part of a massage session, to support recovery from muscle tightness, chronic pain and overuse problems.

Car Accident Massage

Massage after a car accident can help address muscle tightness, spasms and soft tissue damage caused by sudden impact, which often contribute to pain and limited movement if left untreated.

It is commonly used alongside chiropractic care and physical therapy for auto accident recovery, focusing on reducing muscle guarding, improving circulation and restoring normal movement.

CBD Massage:

CBD massage incorporates topical CBD products into your session to support relaxation, reduce muscle tension and ease discomfort.

Products are applied directly to the skin during treatment. It is often chosen by people managing chronic muscle tension, stress or recovery from physical activity.

Sports Massage & Pain Relief in Boulder

Sports massage helps athletes and active individuals manage training-related muscle tightness and recover between sessions. Every sports massage is tailored to your activity level and goals.

Our massage therapists address deep muscle tension, trigger points and the restrictions that build up with repetitive training. Whether you are managing acute pain from a recent injury or chronic tightness from ongoing training, a targeted session can support faster recovery and better performance. We also see clients recovering from orthopedic injuries once they are cleared for hands-on work.

We work with runners, cyclists, climbers and other Boulder athletes to keep you moving at your best.

Who You Will Work With

Our team of licensed massage therapists and bodyworkers trains continually in sports, lymphatic, prenatal and other hands-on techniques. Your therapist reviews your history and goals at the start of each visit and adjusts intensity and technique as you go. Because we are a multidisciplinary clinic, your massage therapist can coordinate with our chiropractors and physical therapists, so hands-on work fits the rest of your plan. If massage is not the right fit for a problem, we will tell you and point you to the provider who is.

Our lymphatic therapist also uses gentle manual lymph techniques with clients recovering from surgery, with clearance from their surgeon. Many Boulder clients combine lymphatic work with deep tissue massage later in their recovery, once swelling has settled.
