At Massage on Kenwick, licensed massage therapist Richard Schwitzerlett digs into muscles with the help of natural oils to root out pockets of tension. He customizes therapeutic massages for each client, focusing on a single area or ranging across the entire body with long, rolling pressures. Rossiter techniques apply weights and guided stretches to limbs to break up connective tissue. Hot-stone massages glide heated river rocks over the body, leaving clients in a state of relaxation not experienced since their one-hour handshake with James Taylor.
