Therapeutic Relaxation Massage
The purpose of a Therapeutic Relaxation Massage is to relieve stress, muscle tension, and to promote a sense of overall well-being. Deep Relaxation helps to relieve symptoms of anxiety, depression, and general distress. This Therapeutic Massage eases pain from arthritis, headaches, and calms the nervous system promoting better sleep patterns. With the long strokes of the massage techniques circulation is enhanced and the immune system benefits. Deby combines Swedish techniques with Hot Stones and Cupping for those areas of tension and discomfort.

Deep Tissue - Medical Massage
What is Medical Massage?
The definition of a “Medical” massage or Deep Tissue massage is working specific muscles for specific needs that restrict movement, function, and maybe painful. Some examples are muscle strains & injuries, whiplash and neck pain, low back pain, sciatica, shoulder pain, TJM and many other conditions.
What Techniques Do You Use?
Having an Oregon Massage License since 1992 and having taken thousands of hours of continuing education and teaching some of the courses myself, I combine Deep Tissue, Myofascia, and Swedish Massage techniques to provide the best treatment for each person. Cupping and hot stones are added as needed. The session goal is to achieve results for the individual needs of each client.
Post Surgical Scar Therapy
What is Scar Tissue?
Most people have surgery to alleviate their pain. But months or even years later the scar may feel tight, numb, itchy, painful, and restricts movement. Scars look fine on the surface, but the real problem is what is going on under the scar?
In the body’s amazing ability to fill the wound, Scar Tissue not only develops right after surgery, but often over produces the collagen that is repairing the tissues. Adhesions form and can glue tissues together, limiting the flow of the lymphatic system resulting in chronic swelling. Adhesions can attach to organs, muscles, and tissues causing multiple complications.
What Does Scar Tissue Therapy Feel Like?
We are often told, “You must break up Scar Tissue,” which can be painful and often produces little results. My approach is GENTLE and learned from Sharon Wheeler’s ScarWork™. Sharon is a Structural Integration practitioner who trained under Dr. Ida Rolf, the founder of Rolfing. Her workshops are taught all over the world due to their tangible results.
What do Scar Adhesions Feel Like?
The sensations caused by scar tissue adhesions can vary depending on the location, extent, and movement. People often describe their discomfort as:
- A pulling, tugging, or tightness
- Burning, tingling, or numbness
- Itching
- Dull aching or throbbing
- Increased sensitivity
- Swelling may become chronic
