Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is the most common and best known of massage. It involved long, fluid strokes of muscles and tissues with pressure that varies from light to medium. The main PURPOSE: to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles.
Swedish therapy can be both relaxing and energizing. It shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of Lactic acid, Uric acid, and other metabolic wastes; increases circulation without increasing heart load; stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable; stimulates the skin and nervous system; reduces stress, both emotional and physical; it is relaxing and invigorating.
It affects the nerves, muscles, glands, and circulation while promoting health and well-being.

Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage targets your body’s deepest layers of muscles and release tension in over-stressed areas. When your muscle is severely knotted, this treatment is designed to break it up. Deep tissue massage is a mix of slow, short strokes and penetrating finger pressure focused on tight, contracted areas such as a stiff neck and upper back, low back pain, leg muscle tightness, and sore shoulders.
Some of the same strokes are used as classic massage therapy, but the movements are slower, and the pressure is deeper and concentrated on areas of tension and pain in order to reach the sub-layer of muscles and the fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles). Deep tissue massage helps break out and eliminate scar tissue. It does this by improving circulation and drainage to improve flexibility and range of motion in the affected area. Also recommended for people who are recovering from surgery; for rehabilitation of sports injures; for people who suffer from chronic stress.

Hot Stone Therapy
Hot Stone massage is a natural therapy in which warmed stones are positioned on parts of the client’s body and also use to massage certain areas of the body to maximize the therapeutic benefit.
The heat from the stones helps your muscles relax, allowing the massage therapist to manipulate your deep tissues more effectively. Overly tense muscles can hinder the massage procedure, so if your muscles are extremely tight or stiff, the heated stones provide the extra relaxation you need for the massage to be beneficial in releasing tension and easing sore muscles.
While all types of massage can help relieve pain caused by tense muscles, stiff joints, or injures, a hot stone massage provide greater relief due to the intense nature of the massage. Because the hot stones allow the massage therapist to penetrate deeper layers of muscle tissues.

Body scrub is a popular body treatment that is like a facial for the body which leave your skin feeling velvety smooth and soft. The idea behind a body treatment is that is just as important to cleanse, EXFOLIATE, and hydrate the skin on your body as it is the skin of your face.
You can get a body scrub on its own. But often it’s the first step in a BODY WRAP, also a great combination body scrub with a MASSAGE.
The skin is constantly generating new skin cells at the lower layer (the dermis) and sending them to the surface (the epidermis). Exfoliation is the removal of the oldest dead skin cells that cling to the skin’s outermost surface, or epidermis. As the cells rise to the surface they gradually die and become filled with keratin.
There keratinized skin cells are essential because the give our skin it’s protective quality. But they are constantly sloughing off to make way for younger cells. As we age the process of cell turnover slows down. Cells start to pile up unevenly on the skin’s surface, giving it a dry, rough, dull appearance. Exfoliation is beneficial because it removes those cells that are clinging on, revealing the fresher, younger skin cells below.

Can massage actually relieve depression and anxiety?
Yes, and here is why. Cortisol is the hormone your body needs for a fight- or- flight response, but when stressful events don’t require you to flightier flee, it can build up in your system and create problems.
Studies shown that massage lowers cortisol level as much 50% while also increasing levels of dopamine, oxytocin and serotonin.
There are the natural chemicals your body produces to stabilize your mood and lower stress. Regular massage therapy makes it easier to slip into more relaxed state, which helps you breathe easier and sleep better. So, massage is a beneficial for your mental health as it is for your physical condition.
Will the massage hurt?
This depends on the type of massage and the depth of the strokes. A light, relaxing massage that doesn’t probe very deep into the muscles, shouldn’t hurt. With that being said. There is a ” feels hurt” and an ” ouch, stop it” hurt. A good massage, even a really deep tissue massage, should always stay in the ” feels good” hurt range.
Pain can be an indication that the muscles is possibly injured or inflamed, and pressure should be adjusted. Also, pain can cause you to tighten up and negate the relaxing effects of the massage. The most effective and deepest massage always works with your body’s natural response, not against it.
How often should I get a massage?
“Some is better than none”…
What does that mean? Well, it varies from person to person. If you are just looking for some occasional relaxation, then a session every 3-6 weeks may be fine for you. However, if you are looking to address a specific condition, then it is recommended to go more frequently at first and then slowly taper down to a maintenance schedule. Sometimes more frequent 30- minute sessions can be effective until your goals are met, and a maintenance schedule is in place.
Frequency of sessions should be discussed with your massage therapist after your treatment when massage therapist has a better hand- on understanding of your particular muscular issues.
If I want a really deep massage shouldn’t I see a male therapist?
The answer is NO. There is a perception that men give deeper massages than women. This is a myth. While some men do give a deeper massage, there are men who prefer to not work so deep. The same holds for women.
It is a matter of style, training, and therapist preference. Some therapists prefer not to give really deep sessions while others specialized in this area. If you are looking for a deep massage, it is the best to simply to ask the therapist if the person provide this type of work. And of course, during your session it is perfectly ok to give the massage therapist feedback if you would like a lighter/ deeper pressure. It’s your session!
And remember, massage does not have to hurt to be effective.
When should I not get a massage?
There are few conditions which would prevent you from enjoying massage. You should not book a massage if you have a fever, cold/ flu, or contagious skin infection.
There are many other conditions in which your therapist need to adapt the technique (i.e. arthritis or osteoporosis) or avoid an area completely (i.e. cuts or burns). With some condition it is a good idea to get approval from your physician before you receive massage (cancer, certain heart condition, pregnancy). This doesn’t mean you can’t get massage. But it’s always to err on the side of caution.
Your massage therapist can advise you about your specific needs.

Christine M.2024-02-27Elena is wonderful! Her communication was excellent in setting up several spa appointments for our guests. She arrived promptly at our cabin and gave the most amazing massages, a facial and a foot detox session and everyone raved about her skills! She is very personable and knew intuitively where I needed work in her massage. She helped the tension drain from my body and I felt fantastic afterwards. I would highly recommend her services. She is professional, caring and has amazingly strong, sensitive hands! I wish I could see her regularly! Next time we are in South Lake Tahoe we all agreed we will invite her again!
Brooke V.2024-02-05Elena was amazing!! She was able to locate the problem areas where there was tension and work out the kinks and knots! She applied the right amount of pressure and used hot stones to get deeper into the muscle tissue. We would highly recommend!
Dez M.2024-01-22Responsive and flexible. They were able to accommodate myself and 5 friends for 60 min massages each with short notice.Diane M.2023-12-23Elena came to our condo and provided massages for the family. My favorite was the Thai massage, super relaxing and perfect for recovery. The other favorite was the Swedish massage. Professional, perfect pressure for each of our needs, and punctual. Great communication as well. We will book with Elena again!
Dejanae A.2023-06-29I really appreciate Elena and her massage friends for their accommodations and skills to massage our group. We had a bachelorette party in an Airbnb in Kingsbury and wanted to get massages but most places couldn't accommodate our group of 6 without it taking 3 hours. Elena was able to take care of us in 2 hours with herself and 2 other massage therapist helping out. We enjoyed our massages and their ability to come to us with their supplies. Definitely will connect back next time we're in Tahoe!Jamie B.2023-05-26My experience with Tahoe mobile spa was great! From booking over a month in advance and having to communicate changes to our booking, Elena was very responsive, helpful and accommodating. They arrived at our rental home on time and was very professional and made my girls and I feel very comfortable during the introduction process and explained things very well. Message was very relaxing and everything I could ever want. I would definitely recommend if needing a great massage in south Lake Tahoe and best thing is they will come to you in privacy of your own home. I will definitely be booking in the future while visiting Lake Tahoe. Mahalo Tahoe mobile Spa! Hawaii island girls

Kelly O.2022-07-26I had an incredibly relaxing lomi lomi massage from Elena. I felt my mood lifting as she worked on me and after I felt so energized and flexible. She has a very gentle therapeutic touch and was able to get the kinks out of my neck. I can't wait for another session ! :)
John P.2022-07-11Booked a 4-hand massage with Elena and Louisa. I have never experienced this before, and I must say it was complete comfort and relaxation. The synchronization of the two ladies was super unique and perfect for exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend this service and this company. Very professional, and very reasonably priced.
Ama L.2022-05-17This was the first massage since the beginning of the pandemic that my partner and I experienced, and it couldn't have been more amazing. I appreciated Elena's communication when booking the appointment and she also sent me a reminder text the day before. I had the hot stone massage and my partner had the deep tissue massage. Elena and Danielle arrived on time, set up quickly and turned the Airbnb we were staying at into an instant spa with healing music and aromatherapy oils. They communicated with us about the firmness of the pressure, our comfort during the treatment, etc. It was such a relaxing and restorative experience. We appreciated how friendly they were, giving us tips on places to visit/stop by on our way home. I would highly recommend Tahoe Mobile Spa, and we will definitely be reaching out to them again when we are back in the area.
