Hands on therapeutic bodywork from licensed professional massage therapists.
Massage stimulates the blood flow through the body to the brain. It releases toxins that permeate throughout the body causing aches and pains while stretching and relaxing the muscle fibers that will release the toxins as well as the tension and pain. Massage therapy has been known to help with the following: Arthritis Pain Emotional Balance, Relaxation, Scar tissue break up (useful after surgery or during muscular rehab), Improve Digestion & Mobility, Relief of Muscular Discomfort, Detoxification, Increase Energy, Improve Circulation & Sleep Patterns, Stress Reduction and Increased Productivity. Many of the physical discomforts we experience are due to muscle soreness/weakness and limited range of motion.

These include but are not limited to Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular Therapy (or NMT), Swedish, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, Pre/Post Natal Massage and Sports Massage.
