Our therapists are professional, yet personal, striving to honor our client’s needs with creative open minds. We approach every session with the knowledge that each client is unique in what they require and how they respond.
Whether the session be specific, therapeutic, relaxing or a combination thereof, our therapists are highly trained and dedicated. When dealing with soft tissue manipulation, we keep in mind the physical, functional, and psychological results that our clients aspire to.
Massage therapy is considered a viable and effective way to improve and enhance circulation. It can increase the range of motion in overused joints and in soft tissue (fascia, muscle). Massage activates the body’s para-sympathetic nervous system, allowing the body to de-stress and breath more fully, providing oxygen to starved tissue and organs, allowing them to function at their optimum capacity. Massage can be utilized for preventative as well as restorative therapy.
As well as providing you with our services, we also work in concert with other professionals, i.e.… Medical Doctors, Doctors of Chiropractic, Physical Therapists etc… Our atmosphere is relaxing, homelike and dedicated to your well being.
