OUR SERVICES
Booking here at the studio is time-based and not service based for most services. We do that because we want everyone to receive exactly what their body needs based on preference, how they feel, and day-of assessment of muscles and tissues. All of our services are customizable and can be chosen and compounded at the time of your appointment. Look around and familiarize yourself with our services, and feel free to ask for recommendations when you come in!
All massages over 60 minutes are Ashiatsu only.
Ashiatsu
This deep, relaxing treatment is the foundation of what we offer at Sol. It is applied using the practitioner’s feet and body weight to give consistent, broad pressure in order to elongate shortened muscles and connective tissue, decrease muscular discomfort, and increase muscle and joint mobility. Ashiatsu, also known as “barefoot”, allows the practitioner to provide deep consistent pressure without causing pain or discomfort to themselves or the client since the pressure is disbursed over a larger surface area (the foot). Typically only one foot is used at a time when giving ashiatsu, however two footed strokes may be used with certain conditions or needs.
Ashiatsu is our main modality here at the studio, what we are best known for, and is a great option for almost all conditions.
Integrated Therapeutic Techniques
Myofascial Release - Myofascia is the tough membrane that wraps, connects, and supports muscles and joints, but can also restrict muscle and joint movements, which contributes to widespread muscle pain and a reduction in mobility. This service focuses on manually releasing adhesions and trigger points in the tissue to reduce pain, and improve muscle function and mobility. Fascia blasting is beneficial in conjunction with this service.
Active Release Technique - This service treats your body’s soft tissue by combining manipulation and movement. ART entails identifying, isolating, and targeting the affected area to break up adhesions in the soft tissue by applying localized pressure to muscles and putting them into movement.
Connective Tissue - a soft tissue manipulative technique which stretches connective tissue, restoring mobility at dermis/hypodermis and dermis/fascia interfaces and promoting remodeling of collagen. It is often described as a neural therapy because of its powerful reflex effects.
Fascia Blasting
Every muscle and structure in your body is enveloped and joined by an interconnected tissue network. This tissue is called fascia. This service is performed using a FasciaBlaster(TM), which is a plastic wand with claw-like attachments that apply pressure to the superficial fascia for 1-5 minutes per area. Benefits include: lessening the appearance of cellulite, reducing pain, increasing joint and muscle mobility, improving circulation, and accelerating muscle recovery.
Prenatal Massage
For prenatal massages we use a body cushion system that enables clients up to full term to lie comfortably face down. The system supports the shoulders, chest and hips to distribute the weight to those areas allowing stomach and baby to nestle comfortably in the adjustable cutout. Likewise, our pressure is always adjustable to our client’s comfort and needs.
If a client’s pregnancy is deemed high risk we require a doctor’s note stating that a massage is advisable, or signing a liability waiver, before proceeding with treatment.
