Ed Borrego, Licensed Massage Therapist,  LMT License #6030

I have been practicing massage in the Salem area since 1997, and specialize in therapeutic massage to provide you with relaxation from every day stress, give you a sense of well-being, wonderful relief from muscle tension, even to improve muscle tone and flexibility, plus better circulation.

Therapeutic Massage for Women

• Swedish Massage: For relaxation, stress relief, and also a good choice for a person having a massage for the first time. The Swedish Massage is a great combination of body and muscle manipulations to relieve tension.

• Abdominal Massage: Abdominal massage works to release stress, and promotes healing by massaging the abdomen to soften tissue, and increase the flow of fluids through the abdomen. Since the abdomen acts as the "control center" for emotions, stress, tension and other negative emotions have long been associated with digestive problems. As negative emotions build-up, physical changes can take place. Fascia surrounding the organs hardens limiting flexibility and the flow of blood. Abdominal massage can energize, strengthen, and detoxify your system to enable, identify and release emotional issues.

• Lymphatic Breast Care & Augmentation Massage:  Lymphatic Breast Care (LBC), uses a light, gentle, noninvasive touch to move fluids within the breasts. Movement of the breast tissue circulates lymph fluid to destroy cancer cells, viruses, bacteria, toxins and can also help eliminate fluid retention, and release emotional blockage.  Breast Augmentation may cause physical discomforts, and LBC provides a natural way of healing. LBC can help alleviate many breast-related conditions including: painful or swollen breasts; Fibrocystic breast cysts; pregnancy and breastfeeding related issues such as  breast engorgement, clogged milk ducts, and inflammation.

• Aromatherapy:  Essences from the essential oils of flowers, plants and herbs are blended to create scents that alter stress and energy levels, as well as sensuality. Aromatherapy immediately affects your mood in a positive way!

• Body Cushion Designed For Women: The use of a special body cushion during massage works to comfortably support a woman's body while lying in a face-down position and easily settle their anatomy into the cushion's recesses which are built right into the cushion's design, making it possible to enjoy a position of release and relaxation.

• Pregnancy Massage: During pregnancy and childbearing, a tremendous influx of hormones combine with weight-gain, altered body shape, and the normal biophysical and structural discomforts caused by increased blood volume and a shifted center of gravity, all contribute to many pregnant women feeling extremely uncomfortable; both emotionally and physically. Massage during pregnancy can provide an excellent means to not only relieve body stress, but also helping a woman deal with emotional fears and concerns. When a woman feels an integrated and healthy sensation in her body and mind, she will manifest a more positive birth experience. I use the body cushion described above, so a pregnant woman can be completely comfortable throughout the entire massage. Please note that massage is NOT to be performed during the first trimester if client has a history of miscarriage.

• Deep Tissue Massage: Using slow strokes and deep finger pressure that aching muscles benefit from. Deep Tissue Massage restores your body's suppleness and is good for people with injuries that are old or new. Also benefits chronic pain or problems like restricted-range-of-motion.

• Sports Massage: Not just for athletes, this stretching and pressure-point work can enhance performance and help prevent or recover from injury. It also benefits chronic pain or problems like restricted-range-of-motion, and improve flexibility.
