What can massage do for me? Can bodywork, Therapies
Benefit Me?
Massage provides relief to people from all walks
of life — the weekend or competitive athlete,
the home gardener, and the overstressed executive
struggling to keep pace in today’s economy.
Secretaries, laborers, waitresses — anyone
can feel a need for massage at some point in
time. The older population, as well, will benefit
from massage, as it enhances flexibility and circulation.
The bedridden can also be helped in
this regard. There are some conditions where
massage is not recommended, however.
Our therapists will ask for information regarding
any specific health conditions from which
you may be suffering in order to determine if
massage, bodywork, or somatic therapies are
contraindicated. In some cases, the practitioner
may need your doctor’s permission before providing
services. |

This is the most common type of massage therapy in the United States. It is known as Swedish massage or simply massage therapy.
Massage therapists use long smooth strokes, kneading, and circular movements on superficial layers of muscle using massage lotion or oil.
Heated, smooth stones are placed on certain points on the body to warm and loosen tight muscles and balance energy centers in the body.
The massage therapist may also hold stones and apply gentle pressure with them. The warmth is comforting. Hot stone massage is good for people who have muscle tension but prefer lighter massage. To learn more, read the full article on hot stone massage.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Our therapists are experienced and licensed to offer this therapy. The massage therapist uses slower strokes or friction techniques across the grain of the muscle.
Deep tissue massage is used for chronically tight or painful muscles, repetitive strain, postural problems, or recovery from injury. People often feel sore for one to two days after deep tissue massage. To learn more, read the full article on deep tissue massage
Increase
the Benefits with Frequent Visits
Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting
massage frequently can do even more. This is the beauty of
bodywork. Taking part in this form of regularly scheduled
self-care can play a huge part in how healthy you’ll be and
how youthful you’ll remain with each passing year. Budgeting
time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is truly
an investment in your health. And remember: just because massage
feels like a pampering treat doesn’t mean it is any less therapeutic.
Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health
and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish
a treatment schedule that best meets your needs. |
