What's Bamboo massage?

Bamboo-fusion massage is a specialty massage treatment where the massage therapist uses solid bamboo tools, warmed to perfection, to massage the client.



The tools are heated in a commercial grade heating pad, and are easily cleaned using anti-bacterial wipes. The massage feels great to receive and helps to ensure a longer career for the massage therapist.

There's something almost magical about the way clients melt into the table the moment the therapist gently places the bamboo tools on the skin and starts to effleurage. The heat is nuturing, relaxing and physically softens the client's muscles. This helps the therapist sink more deeply with less effort into the clients tight spots.

I charge the same amount for a Bamboo-fusion massage as I do for any other massage in my Cincinnati studio, $65 for an hour and $90 for a 90 minute session. If you're in the mood for a new style of massage, you can schedule an appointment online at http://www.affinitymassages.com/ at the "schedule an appointment" tab.


Of course, I also teach a 16 credit hour continuing education class for massage therapists as well. It's 2 days, and costs $399 (tools included). And at 80% hands on for class, it makes the therapist very happy to be in class!
