Types of Therapeutic and Relaxation Massage in Montreal and Their Benefits

There are many different kinds of massage available in Montreal so it is important to know what you are looking for. Here we are talking about professional, therapeutic or relaxation massages, the kind of massages you will get at Studio Bliss! There are several day spas that offer massage in Montreal, as well as numerous different styles of massage to choose from, including popular styles like hot stone massage, Swedish massage, lomi lomi massage, and sports massage but not all massages are created equal and Montreal massage therapists also differ in talent, technique and experience. Luckily for you, you have found the right place: Studio Bliss was voted to have the Best Massage Therapists in Montreal in the Montreal Mirror's 2011 Best of Montreal Reader's poll. Thanks to our great style and technique, we won the category hands down!

If you're interested in getting a massage in Montreal, but aren't sure what type of massage is right for you, read on. The following descriptions of popular Montreal massage styles and their benefits will help you determine which massage style is right for your needs.

Swedish Massage: Swedish massage is the most common type of massage available in North America and one of the most commonly practiced Montreal massages. It is a general purpose massage that was developed in Sweden, as its name suggests! If it is your first time getting a massage in Montreal, Swedish massage is a great place to start.

During a Swedish massage, the massage therapist will apply oil to your skin in order to facilitate a variety of massage strokes. The benefits of getting Swedish massage include relaxation and the relief of muscle tension. The pressure used during Swedish massage varies from light to firm, depending on your preferences.
Hot Stone Massage: The hot stone massage is one of a number of specialized massages that you can try. By specialized, we mean that not all Montreal massage studios offer that kind of massage. Also not all Montreal massage therapists offer it either! During a hot stone massage, heated stones of various shapes and sizes are used to massage your body. The stones used in hot stone massage have a smooth texture. The heat that the stones emit helps to warm and relax the muscles, improve circulation, and calm the nervous system. You can ask your massage therapist to apply deeper pressure with the stones in some areas to treat specific problems. The hot stone massage is one of Studio Bliss Massage Montreal house specialties!
Rain Massage: The rain massage is another one of Studio Bliss Massage Montreal's specialty massages. Essentially it is a therapeutic massage given under the relaxing and heavenly sensation of several hot water jets. The hot water relaxes the muscle tissues and washes away aches, tensions and physical and emotional impurities while the massage the therapist administers a therapeutic massage, usually a Swedish-based massage. At Studio Bliss Massage Montreal, the rain massage is enhanced by a full body exfoliation and a full body hydration, making this therapeutic experience a rejuvenating spa treatment as well!
Sports Massage: Are you an athlete? If so, you may be interested in sports massage. Again, not all Montreal massage therapists offer the sports massage and not all Montreal massage studios do either! Sports massage is a type of Swedish massage that helps prepare your body for optimal performance when you play sports. Sports massage also regenerates muscle tissue and helps your body recuperate after an intense workout. When performed regularly, sports massage helps athletes prevent injury.

Even people who aren't athletes can benefit from a sports massage. If you suffer from injuries, chronic pain, or a restricted range of motion, you may be a great candidate for sports massage.

The sports massage is usually available at Studio Bliss Massage Montreal and is one of the more popular massages in Montreal among hockey players, skiers, runners and athletes in general.
Shiatsu: Shiatsu is a Japanese style of massage that is similar to acupuncture, except finger pressure is used instead of needles. "Shi" means "finger" and "atsu" means "pressure." During a shiatsu massage (An increasingly popular massage in Montreal), pressure is exerted onto specific points of the body in order to stimulate energy circulation. Shiatsu is commonly promoted as a way to relieve stress, muscle pain, anxiety, and depression.

At Studio Bliss Massage Montreal, all of these massages are available plus many more! We select only the best, most qualified Montreal massage therapists and give them the unique Bliss massage training which elevates the quality of the massage to a work of art
