Therapeutic Tools
Therapeutic Tools Used in Massage Therapy
Our massage therapists sometimes incorporate complementary tools into their treatments to enhance the benefits of massage. Here are some of the tools you might experience during your session:
Gua Sha
Gua Sha is an increasingly popular tool, often known in aesthetics, but also very useful in massage therapy. It helps break down myofascial adhesions (tight or stuck tissues) in a way that is often less painful than certain manual techniques.
It improves joint range of motion and stimulates blood circulation.
- In Shiatsu, Malina uses it to follow meridians and unblock energy (Qi).
- In Swedish massage, David, Dorothée, Sabrina and Diane P. also integrate it into their treatments.
G5 Vibratory Massager
The G5 is a device that works through adjustable vibrations combined with different attachments, depending on the desired effect.
It is particularly effective for:
- Improving muscle flexibility
- Promoting tissue decongestion
- Stimulating or soothing circulation
It is used in our legs circulation massage and also by Diane D. and Dorothée in their Swedish massages.
Essential Oils and Balms
Several of our massage therapists — Diane D., Dorothée, Malina, Christine, and Radia— sometimes use essential oils or therapeutic balms during their treatments.
These natural products can:
- Stimulate circulation
- Promote muscle relaxation
- Relieve certain types of pain
- Reduce headaches
Each therapist selects oils based on your needs and preferences.
