About Massage Therapy

One of the oldest forms of healing, massage therapy is used alone or in conjunction with a variety of treatments to alleviate stress, tension, and soreness and to increase blood flow to the muscles.

Massage can help with both muscle pain and stress-related conditions. It is the practice of manipulating the muscles and limbs to ease tension and reduce pain.

People trained in massage are familiar with several different techniques that are believed to help improve blood circulation and digestion, increase mobility in joints, and reduce swelling and inflammation.

Either deep tissue or light massage is used to help trigger releases of blocked emotional material.
