Massage Therapy is commonly known as a method of relaxation, but it is truly much more than that. Using various modalities and techniques, massage can help reduce the pain and discomfort caused by many physical conditions; including repetitive motion injuries related to certain occupations or the playing of sports. Massage therapy can treat specific diagnosed pathologies such as:
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder)
- Biceps Tendinosis
- Medial Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow)
- Lateral Epicondylitis (Golfers Elbow)
- Quadriceps and Hamstring Injuries
- Shin Splints
- Calcaneal Tendinosis
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Iliotibial Band Syndrome
Massage Therapy, in conjunction with other therapies, can also be beneficial and aid in the body’s recovery process.
Massage Therapy is also used as a way to maintain ones health and to normalize and balance the bodies’ systems. We have become a society known to be reactive to our healthcare, waiting to treat the condition rather than prevent the condition. Massage Therapy can be a tool used as a form of proactive and preventive healthcare.
To keep the body functioning at its best, it requires a level of maintenance to achieve balance. As a Massage Therapist my goal is to provide individualized treatments designed specifically for you and your health and wellness goals.
