What is Massage Therapy?

     There are over 80 different types of massage therapy.

In all of them, therapists press, rub and otherwise manipulate the

muscles and other soft tissue of the body, often varying pressure

and movement.

     Massage Therapy is the manipulation of the body's soft tissue

by kneading and stretching muscles with the intention of

inducing relaxation while moderating/amelioating pain and/or

discomfort.

     Trained and certified or licensed Practitioner's artistic hand strokes

rejuvenate the mind and body while eliminating stress, scientifically.

     Literally, Massage Therapy is a combination of art and science. 

Massage Therapy terms outlined for your information:

•Swedish Massage is what most people think of when

  they think of therapeutic massage. 

    A combination of pressure and gentle movement over and around

    the muscles creates a warm and relaxing feeling in the body.

    It is our most popular style of massage.

•Deep Tissue Massage is often mistaken for a very vigorous,

  "hard" or firm massage. 

   Actually, deep tissue work is used to release chronic

   muscle tension through slower strokes and more direct pressure

   or friction applied across the muscle grain.

•    This technique effects the deepest layers of muscle in the body.
  

*NMT (Neuro Muscular Therapy) is a thorough program of recovery

   from acute and chronic pain syndromes which utilizes specific

   massage therapy, flexibility stretching, and home care to eliminate

   the causes of most neuromuscular pain patterns.

     This specific and scientific approach to muscular pain relief will

   help to bring about balance between the musculoskeletal system

   and the nervous system.

     NMT enhances the function of joints, muscles and biomechanics

   (movement) and it releases endorphins, the body's own natural

   pain killers.

     It can be part of a comprehensive program, complementing

   all other health care modalities.

*Myofascial Release is a very effective hands-on technique

that provides sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions

to eliminate pain and restore motion
