One hour fitness massage with Nora Stewart at Pro Fitness Network in Pasadena.

Fitness Massage is a "whole-body approach" to bodywork based on structural integration. The massage will be geared to releasing chronic areas of tension and injury based on forms of Myofascial Release, Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, Thai and Trigger Point therapy. Unlike a spa-type massage, very little lotion, if any, is used and a portion of the massage may be performed through the towel or sheet, Shiatsu-style. Some client participation (deep breathing, counter-stretching, etc.) may be suggested, if applicable.

Nora Stewart

Nora was moved to go into massage during a midlife time of transition.  “It was a calling!”, she says and she has never looked back.  After much experience in the spa industry, she is continuing her practice which includes Swedish, Deep Tissue, Chair Massage and Myofacial Release.  Whatever your reason for receiving massage, Nora feels the greater benefits come out of a collaborative exchange between therapist and client.  “There is no distinction between us in body, spirit, mind – we create a mutual experience for healing together!”  Nora is also a graduate of the Hands on Healing Institute and recently starting teaching some of their chair massage classes.
