Massage is an ancient form of wellness and healing, dating back to the time of the caveman. Massage takes many forms known as modalities and each modality has a specific effect on the body. Swedish Massage improves circulation and promotes relaxation. Deep Tissue releases tension in the deepest muscles of the body. Myofascial Release encourages the connective tissue of the body to return to it's naturally pliable state. Trigger Point Therapy addresses small areas of pain, about the size of a pea. Muscle Energy Techniques are used to stretch the client and improve mobility. These are but a few of the many massage modalities. Therapeutic Massage incorporates all of these modalities and their benefits. Massage can help relieve stress, promote relaxation, relieve pain without drug side-effects, improve posture and mobility, decrease blood pressure, alleviate insomnia, bolster the immune system, help speed the healing process from injury or trauma, prevent injury in sports, increase circulation, decrease the body's production of glucose... The list of benefits is almost endless.
Massage is not just a luxury for the rich. Massage can restore lost vigor and ease of movement and it should be part of everyone's wellness plan. Our health is always worth the investment.My personal mission is to help my clients achieve a less stressful, pain free, and healthier life.
