Massage Therapy is one of the oldest healing arts and is frequently used as an integral component of physical rehabilitation programs. Massage is a drug-free, non-invasive and humanistic approach to health and healing that is based on the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Massage has many physiological effects, such as:
- Relaxing and softening injured and overused muscles
- Reducing spasms and cramping
- Increasing joint flexibility
- Reducing recovery time for strenuous workouts and eliminating subsequent pain.
- Releasing endorphins, the body’s natural painkiller.
- Massage is being incorporated into treatment for chronic illness
- Injury and recovery from surgery to control
- Relieve pain
- Improving range of motion and decreasing discomfort for patients with low back pain
- Increasing circulation, allowing the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and and vital organs
- Reducing post-surgery adhesions and edema and reducing and realigning scar tissue after healing has occurred
- Stimulating the lymph system, the body’s natural defense against toxic invaders.
There are numerous modalities of therapeutic massage and bodywork. We offer the following:
Swedish: This is the most common and well-known form of massage. Soothing and relaxing, the long, slow techniques of Swedish massage carry the intent to relax the body.
Sports Massage sessions are designed for pre- or post-event athletes of all types and take a functional approach to preparation or recovery.
Deep Tissue work affects sub-layers of muscle and connective tissue. This is helpful with chronic pain and injury rehabilitation. It is generally integrated with other techniques, as the superficial layers of muscle must first be relaxed to effectively perform deeper work.
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle hands-on alternative medicine procedure for evaluating and enhancing the functioning of the craniosacral system, a physiological system surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Therapists use a light touch to feel the rhythmic motion of the cerebrospinal fluid, encouraging vitality and facilitating a sense of wellbeing.
Massage sessions are designed to meet your specific needs and typically incorporate more than one method. Whether it is pure relaxation, relief from muscle stiffness and soreness, or management of a chronic health issue; massage works!
