Massage

• Swedish Massage
  My sessions incorporate various approaches including, but not limited to: Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Deep Tissue Massage, Lymphatic Drainage, Rehabilitative Stretching Procedures and feel good Swedish Massage. I have thorough command of anatomy, trigger point referral patterns, myoskeletal dysfunctions and their effective treatment methodologies.
• Deep Tissue Massage
  Deep Tissue Massage, A Visual Guide to Techniques defines it as the understanding of the layers of the body, and the ability to work with tissue on these layers to relax, lengthen, and release holding patterns in the most effective and energy efficient way possible. There is no sharp distinction between a regular massage and deep tissue work and its practice may vary depending on therapist, setting and client. A deep massage is not a hard massage, which is simply the result of exerting more effort.
• Medical Massage
  Medical Massage Practitioners of America, defines Medical Massage as result oriented and the treatment is specifically directed to resolve conditions that have been diagnosed by a physician. (However, you do not need a prescription to see me and my services are not typically covered by insurance.) The therapist may use a variety of modalities or procedures during the treatment, but will focus that treatment only on the areas of the body related to the diagnosis.
• Neuromuscular Therapy
  All forms of massage therapy can be therapeutic when applied by a skillful and knowledgeable therapist; therefore Medical Massage is not limited to any particular specific technique. We incorporate several approaches including, but not limited to, Muscle Testing, Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Positional Release, Trigger Point Therapy and Rehabilitative Stretching procedures.

  A number of alternative medicine pain treatments have found growing acceptance from fibromyalgia patients seeking pain relief without the expense and dangerous side effect risk found with many conventional medicine treatments. Fibromyalgia patients have found practices as diverse as acupuncture, acupressure, Qigong therapy, chiropractic care, and massage therapy to be helpful. A good diet and sticking to a sleep routine is important too. Magnesium has been proven to help muscles relax and 400mg-600mg taken before bed refreshes muscles as you sleep.
• Acupuncture
  Unfortunately, some people have been reluctant to see me, thinking their problem was too complicated or severe for massage to help. They have tried everything: doctors, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncture and traditional massage.
