Deep tissue
Deep tissue massage is one technique of remedial massage. It relieves chronically tight and painful
muscles by working through the superficial muscle layers, to reach the deeper muscle layers and other
soft tissues. It’s main strokes are strong, sustained kneading of muscle utilising longitudinal stripping
strokes and cross fibre friction strokes.

Relaxation
Relaxation massage is a full body (excluding private parts), pain free style to relax and loosen both
body and mind. Originating in Sweden, relaxation massage uses gentle, long, slow flowing strokes,
soft muscle kneading, vibrations, mild stretches, and light frictions to tighter spots. Sonoko enhances
the experience with the use of warm steam packs and hot towels.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
MLD is different to other massage styles being very slow, light, and targeting the body’s lymphatic
system, not muscles. It originated in hospitals in Austria as a medical procedure for the treatment of lymphoedema (an acquired or inherited condition characterized by fluid swellings, especially of the
limbs). Sonoko has completed specific training, and MLD is able to help with general fluid swellings,
post surgery recovery, acute injuries, and poor immunity.
