• Certified Massage Therapist
  Massage therapy is the scientific manipulation of the soft tissues of the body for the purpose of normalizing those tissues. This treatment consists of a group of manual techniques that include applying pressure, or movement to parts of the body. Massage is generally considered part of integrative medicine. It's increasingly being offered along with standard treatment for a wide range of conditions and situations. Massage benefits can include: Stress reduction, increased relaxation, reduced muscle soreness, improved circulation, lowered heart rate and blood pressure.
