Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage therapy is similar to Swedish massage, but the deeper pressure is beneficial in releasing chronic muscle tension. The focus is on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons and fascia (the protective layer surrounding muscles, bones and joints).
Using deep muscle compression and friction along the grain of the muscle, the purpose of Deep Tissue Massage is to unstick the fibres of the muscles and release both toxins and deeply held tension points. Specific hand positions and strokes are used to respond to various tissues while breath and movement techniques are employed to release muscular congestion. It helps to loosen muscle tissues, release toxins from muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. It is both corrective and therapeutic. It is beneficial for many physical problems, including sports injuries and chronic pain. Because it works very deeply, emotional issues can also be addressed, when these have been stored in the body.
Treatments take place on a massage table on bare skin. Deep Tissue Massage usually focuses on specific areas and may cause some soreness during or after the session. If the massage is done correctly however, you should feel better within a day or two. Water helps to eliminate toxins from the body so it is important to drink plenty of water after a Deep Tissue Massage to help this process along.
Thai Massage
The Thai Massage is said to have been performed by monks for centuries as one of the principle parts of Thai medicine. You will still find ancient inscriptions on stones depicting this type of massage in the Wat Po temple, Bangkok, Thailand. In fact, these inscriptions are reconstructions of older drawings that were demolished by Burmese warriors when they invaded Ayuttaya, the former capital of Siam, as Thailand was known as during those times.
At Arogyam Wellness, we offer the Traditional Thai Massage as a deep complete body treatment, which starts at the feet and steadily advances up to the head.
Our qualified therapists use gentle flowing exercise movements, whereby your body is stirred, slackened and stretched. They use their hands, legs, knees as well as feet, to stir you into a sequence of yoga-like stretches. Your joints are activated, muscles are compressed, and acupressure too is employed during the treatment.
The massage has its foundation in the energy flow within the body. It focuses on applying the right pressure on the 10 main energy points, traditionally called the sip-sen.
Aroma Therapy
A gentle massage that works on the sense of touch and smell, it uses a blend of Lavender, Geranium & Marjoram essential oils to release hormones that have a calming effect on the mind.
Usually the duration of a aromatherapy massage is approximately one hour. This is the time required for the essential oils to enter the body through the skin, activate the necessary chemical reactions and finally be removed through our breath, sweat and/or urine
When you are feeling a nuisance usually two to three aromatherapy massage sessions per week give the maximum results. Everyday massage could not cause a problem, but I believe that a break of 2-3 days between successive sessions allows time to the body to activate and excrete toxic substances without stress. As far as children and elderly are concerned, the duration and frequency of massage should adjust to their particular needs. Usually, more frequent sessions of shorter duration (20-30 minutes) are more suitable for these groups.
Aromatherapy massage has better effects when applied to the whole body. For example, even if only the muscles of one leg feel sore and stressed, massage at the specific leg will cause relief but it can not protect the rest of the body until the problem is totally solved. It is not evident that in an effort to protect the sore leg the healthy leg will be burdened, as it will carry most of the body weight . This could cause a big burden to the pelvis area, the asymmetry could affect the spine and subsequently lead to numb arms and/or sore neck. Thus, it is important to give our body and soul the care they deserve!
Foot Massage
Foot Massage is a popular therapeutic method that aims to encourage natural healing of our body. According to ancient therapist theory, every part of our feet and hands corresponds and reflexes to different parts of our body.

Swedish Massage
Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when most people think about massage. As the best-known type of bodywork performed today, one of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart. But Swedish massage therapy goes beyond relaxation. Swedish massage is exceptionally beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, decreasing muscle toxins, improving circulation and flexibility while easing tension.
Additional Swedish massage techniques include circular pressure applied by the hands and palms, firm kneading, percussion-like tapping, bending and stretching. Before and during your Swedish massage session, communication is encouraged with your professional massage therapist so that your massage is customized to your specific needs.
If you are feeling fatigued, exhausted, or feeling discomfort in the joints getting a massage can help alleviate the aches and pains. The Swedish massage is an excellent way to relax you muscles and get them ready operating in a faster amount of time. Swedish massage has a detoxifying effect on the body and you can encourage this by drinking plenty of water and avoiding caffeine, nicotine and alcohol for the next 24 hours. Also try to avoid any strenuous exercise for 24 hours following treatment and try to rest and allow your body to heal from within
Facial Massage
It is designed to be a gentle non-invasive approach to looking younger. It works primarily by freeing constrictions both within the facial muscles and in the connective tissue.
Tension can build up within our facial muscles from the pressures of everyday life without us realising it. It can be easy for certain thoughts and emotions to become habitual, locking themselves into expressions on our faces - sometimes over a duration of a whole lifetime. Under such conditions muscles can actually “dry up” and contract, inhibiting freedom of expression. This can encourage ageing and the formation of wrinkles as the face loses its muscle tone and elasticity and begins to sag.
Through gentle massage of the face, we can help to delay the ageing process. This is achieved by using simple massage techniques and energy balancing, thereby giving the facial muscles a lift and a new lease of life.
This is a precise healthcare modality, working the face systematically, releasing deep-seated tensions, freeing layers of muscle and connective tissue so that there is space for the muscles to relax, encouraging an opening so that micro circulation and elimination can begin again and the tissues can glide smoothly over the deeper layers of muscle and bone. Although it is difficult to stave off the ageing process, we can do much to extend the appearance of youth and beauty by using simple, natural and effective massage techniques and energy balancing to take care of the assets we possess.
Balinese Massage
Inspired by a centuries old tradition for healing in Indonesia, Balinese Massage provides a complete sensory experience by combining techniques of paling, kneading, stretching and pressure point massage to immerse the body in relaxation and a sense of well being. Exotic aromas and nourishing oils leave you feeling calm and renewed.
As with any massage, one of the main goals of the Balinese massage is a relaxed state of mind. The Balinese feel that in order to have true relaxation there must be a good flow of blood and oxygen throughout your system. It is believed that when the blood and oxygen are flowing freely then the qi, or energy, will flow freely too.
Although the Balinese massage combines several different techniques it is performed on a massage table, just like any other massage.
What sets the Balinese massage apart, aside from the combination of techniques, is the use of essential oils. When a Balinese massage is performed, great attention is paid to the scents used in the massage oil. A variety of essential oils are used, common scents such as jasmine, rose or sandalwood. Along with more exotic scents like cempaka, sandat, and frangipani.
Ideally, the Balinese massage will work every muscle in your body. The massage style employs a variety techniques to do just that, including acupressure movements such as press point and palm pressure, and standard massage techniques like sliding, long exploration, short exploration and kneading. This massage is not a delicate one, you can definitely feel it deep in your muscles.
