Massage Therapy

The Discipline of Massage: A Therapeutic Touch

Massage therapy is a non-invasive, holistic healing method. It is based on principles of energy exchange between the massage therapist and the patient. A modern kind of laying-on-of-hands, it stimulates the patient’s own recuperative powers and reduces or even eliminates pain, promotes healing, and elicits great relaxation.

The Purpose of Massage: Deeper Relaxation, Faster Healing

Massage therapy can reduce and eliminate pain. It is the scientific manipulation of the body’s soft tissues for the purpose of normalizing those tissues. The techniques of massage, such as applying fixed or moving pressure, affect the body’s muscular, skeletal, circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems while providing the patient with deeper relaxation and faster healing.
