In Touch Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork - Coralville, IA

Therapeutic Massage
A combination of Swedish massage and other alternative therapies, helping restore an internal balance and proper function throughout the body.

Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger points are located in taut bands of muscle fibers. The therapist will locate them and apply digital pressure to shut off the nerve supply, which in turn relaxes the muscle and allows for increased circulation. This is incorporated into Therapeutic Massage sessions.

30 Minute De-Stressor
A soothing, rhythmical massage that calms the nerves and refreshes the mind.

Prenatal Massage
Assists with shorter labor for expectant mothers, as well as less need for medication, less depression and anxiety, and shorter hospital stays.

Facassage©™
Tones the muscles in the face and neck to lift the skin, break up adhesions, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Acupressure
The concepts of internal and external environment are very important to the philosophy of traditional Asian medicine. The human body encloses a perpetual flow of bioenergy (life for energy, ki, chi) . It flows into the body and along pathways called Meridians, influencing the function of all the organs. We remain healthy when the flow balances internally and externally. We become ill when external or internal events disturb the flow. Along the meridians are a large number of pressure points that act as valves for the flow of chi. Stimulating specific acupoints opens these valves and restores balance.

Reflexology
Reflexology is based on the belief that each body part is represented on the hands, ears, and feet. Applying pressure on specific areas can have therapeutic effects in the corresponding parts of the body.

"I had developed pain and cramping in the back of my legs, making it impossible to walk any distance without resting. I went in to get a massage to see if I could get some relief. Amber suggested focusing on specific areas and a combination of different therapies. She proposed a plan of three sessions, each session improving my condition until it was gone! I liked how concerned Amber was about my problem."

"I really like the stress relief and pampering I get from Amber. The best is the face lift massage with the cold globes!!"
