Signature Relaxation Massage
$75 | Series of 3 one-hour massages $200 | Series of 10 one-hour massages $600
Want 90 Minutes? $112 | $300 | $900
Our Signature Relaxation Massage is a deeply healing blend of Swedish massage: long sweeping strokes using fragrance free lotion, combined with deeper or medium pressure work to specific areas of your choosing: usually the upper and lower back, the feet, legs, neck and shoulders.
The benefits of this unobtrusive, relaxing massage are to calm the nervous system, strengthen the immune system, improve circulation and to relax tight muscles caused by emotional and physical stress. We normally spend 40 minutes on your back, neck and shoulders and then move to the legs, feet and arms. Finally your neck and shoulders are massaged a second time.
Our goal is to make this the best massage you have ever had-- in Davis California or anywhere. To begin each massage, we take a few minutes to check in with you. We listen carefully and then tailor your massage to match your unique needs. Your privacy is protected and you are draped for the entire massage. The massage therapist will leave the room while you undress. She will then knock before she comes back in. We will carefully adjust the temperature of the room to match your preferences and we have a variety of soft music to play-- unless you prefer to have no music.
Generally we suggest that your massage take place in almost complete silence because that seems to allow people to relax at a much deeper level. However, if you would like to talk during the massage, we are happy to carry on a light conversation during the massage. Please note that this is not a deep tissue massage or a sports massage – if you need that, please see below.

Deep Tissue/ Chronic Pain Massage
$85 | Series of 3 one-hour massages $225 | Series of 10 one-hour massages $675
Want 90 Minutes? $125 | $325 | $975
Our Deep Tissue Massage/Chronic Pain Massage is the best choice for people with injuries or chronic persistent pain. These massages are ideal for repetitive use injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck, back and leg pain, sciatica and headaches. People often tell us that a pain they have had for years resolves after their first massage or a short series of several massages. We wish more people with chronic pain knew about the benefits of massage!
You may already know that muscles automatically contract around any painful site to support and protect the area. If pain is resolved quickly, muscles relax. If pain persists, muscles can become habitually contracted. Sometimes these tight muscles also press on nerves causing tingling, numbness and more pain. Deep massage helps by stretching tight muscles and by stimulating the nervous system to relax. Your massage therapy also improves blood flow and circulation and re-hydrates and softens contracted fascia. Sometimes pain and decreased range of motion are caused by muscle and fascia fibers that collagen has adhered together. A Deep Tissue Massage Therapist can impact the area in such a way that the muscle and fascia no longer adhere. As the muscles relax, people normally experience less pain and have an increased range of motion.
Our approach is to alternate a medium and deep pressure in areas where the muscles are contracted. We are very careful and sensitive. We work in such a way that, while deep, your massage is not invasive. We warm the muscles and tissues first and then gradually work deeper based on feedback from you.

Deep Tissue/Sport Massage
$85 | Series of 3 one-hour massages $225 | Series of 10 one-hour massages $675
Want 90 Minutes? $125 | $325 | $975
Our Deep Tissue/Sports Massage is the best choice for active athletes and especially men who want to perform their best, recover from vigorous training, and reach their personal goals. Some of our clients choose to include regular massage as a way to prevent injuries and prepare for major events such as triathlons and marathons. By coming in for a massage at the onset of an injury, clients are able to reduce down time from their favorite sport. When a sport is your passion, it is hard to sit on the sidelines. A Deep Tissue Sports Massage keeps you in the game. We are trained in several massage therapy techniques that can help with various strains and sprains from tennis elbow to shin splints.
For every massage, we listen carefully and do focused deep work on areas where you may have pain. Sometimes we will focus on related muscles groups and only work very gently on the site itself if it's painful. In the case of a recent injury, we will sometimes suggest that you consult your doctor and report your assessment to us before your visit, so that we can plan the best massage for your situation.
Pre-event & Post-event: The function of a pre-event massage is to stretch and loosen your muscles and thereby “warm-up” for the event. It can reduce performance anxiety and some people use the time to focus and even visualize success for the upcoming event. After your event, massage is very beneficial. It will relax and loosen any strained muscles and allow you to prevent or recover more quickly from soreness.
We are trained in various massage techniques that can help with various strains and sprains from major shoulder pain to tennis elbow to sciatica.

Hot Stone Massage-90 min
$128 | Series of 3 $300 | Series of 10 $900
A new and increasingly popular massage therapy, hot stone massage is an experience like no other! We use warm stones from the Yuba River that have been heated in water and are covered with oil or lotion. We customize your hour and a half full body treatment by setting smaller stones underneath you while massaging other areas with slightly larger stones. During your massage you will feel the warmth soak into your body and may feel transported a million miles away from the vicissitudes of daily life. Irritating toxins are flushed away and the flow of healing nutrients is restored to muscles which further aids the release of tension and pain. The Yuba River Hot Stone Spa Therapy can be especially helpful for arthritis, fibromyalgia, sports injuries and emotional distress. Hot Stone massage is remarkably comforting. A wonderful gift for anyone – especially your mother, anyone elderly, and also anyone with a life threatening illness.

45 minute Massage
$60
Have you ever had a massage before? If so, you know that massage time seems to go faster than regular time: 60 minutes often feels like a half hour and 45 minutes can feel like 20. But, if you or your friend feel like 45 minutes is just right for you, we will ask you to pick one or two areas such as back and shoulders or legs and feet and give you a relaxing and therapeutic massage experience.

appointment 2 days ahead! Only for Davis Massage weekdeay appointments before 4 p.m.
Massage therapy is a wonderful antidote for muscle aches and pains caused by studying hunched over your computer or books or from the strain of staying up late writing papers. What about those heavy back packs? Extreme sports? Sleep deprivation? Pre and post-test stress? A massage therapist can definitely help. And at this age, you generally recover quickly from the damage your lifestyle may sometimes cause. Did you know that a Touch Research Institute study showed that people did better on a math test after a massage than they did before? Apparently relaxed people think better!
