Massage Therapy

Massage is as old as touch itself. We all have an innate knowledge that touch heals. Massage offers many healing benefits as well as relief of conditions such as:

  • Stress

  • Headache

  • Sciatica

  • Plantar Fasciitis

  • Lower Back Pain

  • Rotator Cuff Pain

  • Back Pain

  • Neck Pain

  • TMJ

  • Improves breathing

  • Improves body awareness

  • Relaxes the nervous system

  • Maintains muscle tone

  • Improves posture

  • Improves joint mobility

  • Integrates the body and the mind

 

During your massage session at Bodymind Massage Therapy, you can expect to be treated to a unique massage tapered to fit your individual needs with the overall theme being your health and wellbeing. You may request that a certain technique be the focus of your session, or your therapist may utilize whatever techniques she feels would benefit you at the moment. One or more of the following techniques may be used during your session:

  • Swedish

  • Deep Tissue

  • Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques

  • Reiki

  • Joint and Soft-Tissue Mobilizations

  • Relaxation Massage

  • CranioSacral

  • Trigger Point Therapy

  • Myofascial Massage

  • Medical

  • Movement Re-education

  • Pre-Natal

 

The Pre-Natal massage can also include a partner instruction session. This massage consists of an hour session for mama and an additional half hour for her partner to learn techniques that help during preganancy and labor.

 

After your massage, it is well advised to hydrate — drink a good amount of water so that your body can rid itself of any metabolic waste products that have been pushed into your bloodstream during the massage such as lactic acid. Lactic acid, a naturally occurring metabolic waste product is produced by muscle tissue when it is worked either actively during exercise or passively during a circulatory massage.
