Navarre Massage Day Spa and Gifts

By Sara Ryan

Are you stressed? Then I recommend a Navarre Deep Tissue Therapy or hot stone therapy session. I’ve had five massages in my lifetime, and I want more. But the best one I had was the hot stone session.

My very first experience with this type of treatment I had was a typical relaxation session, called the Swedish. I made the appointment with a friend, and the two of us went to the spa together. The therapist knew this was my first one, so she explained exactly what she would be doing. Although it was very relaxing, I did have some very tight muscles. She tried to work through the knots, and as you might imagine that deep pressure was a little uncomfortable. However, in the end, the entire session was very relaxing. I knew I wanted to come back for more massages in the future.

And I did. The second one I had was a deep tissue therapy, designed to actually work through those knotted muscles. I have some problems with my shoulders, and I often have knots that just won’t go away, so the licensed therapist recommended the deep tissue technique as a way to alleviate my pain and try to loosen the knots in my shoulders. The deep tissue technique often takes more time to do, and can sometimes be a bit painful, but when all was said and done, the muscles were much looser and I felt completely relaxed. I do recommend drinking lots of water to flush the toxins out of your body if you choose this type of therapy.

Although I was in a different city for the next one, I opted to get just a relaxing session, not the deep tissue one again. The third one I had was just the relaxing Swedish type again. These are well worth the money, and are the basics that most therapists give when you ask for a massage. They are designed to relax you and loosen your muscles.

My first hot stone therapy session was the fourth type of treatment I experienced. If I had to choose between the different types of treatments available today, the hot stone technique is the best one I’ve tried. The therapist began the session like any other, loosening my muscles and relaxing me. However, she added heated flat stones to the massage. She had dipped the stones in oil, too, so they slide easily over my skin. The stones provided an extra amount of heat which helped relax my muscles. It also seemed that she was able to get deeper into the tissue with the stones than she would have otherwise.

Needless to say, the next time I opted for a relaxing therapy session I definitely went for the hot stone massage, too. It was just as relaxing as the first. I would certainly recommend this type of treatment to anyone who wants to get a one. I will be requesting this specialty technique for every other one I get in the future.
