Paraffin Therapy

Paraffin wraps are applied to hands and sometimes feet. The paraffin allows the slow release of heat into the area and increases circulation. This leads to warmth, comfort and general relaxation. This therapy is offered to appointments of 1 hour or more at the time of dental visit.

Reflexology Massage

This is systematic massage of the feet and hands that stimulates the reflex areas of the major body organs. It relieves stress, improves circulation and brings balance to the whole body. This therapy can be done through socks or hose. A reflexology treatment lasts 5-45 minutes and is offered to appointments of 1/2 hour or more at the time of dental visit.

Chair Massage

Chair massage offers the benefit of full body massage, but without oil or requiring the client to be undressed. The client is seated on a specially designed chair that allows the therapist access to head, neck, back and arms while the head, arms, and legs are supported. Massage improves circulation, promotes relaxation and relieves tension, stress, and spasm in muscles. Chair massage sessions are 10-15 minutes. This therapy is offered to all appointments at time of dental visit.

Temporomandibular Joint Massage (TMJD)

This type of massage is beneficial for clients with face, neck, shoulder, and head pain. By relieving the stress and tension of the muscles of chewing, many of these symptoms are eliminated or decreased.


Full Body Massage

Full body massage is performed while a client lies on a flat treatment table. This allows the therapist access to legs and hips as well as areas treated in chair massage. Oil is used and the client is undressed but never fully exposed. The client is fully draped and only the body part that the therapist is working on is uncovered. A variety of techniques are used to therapeutically treat most areas of the body. Light and deep touch are used depending on the need of the client. The full body massage lasts 1 hour and needs to be scheduled outside of the dental appointment. Please ask the massage therapist for fee schedule.
