Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage is an integrative, healing profession, performed by a board-licenced therapist.
We focus on soft-tissue manipulation using varying pressure on the muscle and connective tissue.
The goal of therapeutic massage is to help treat a range of conditions including muscle tension, pain control, and general stress reduction.
Massage is effective for addressing anxiety and depression by affecting the nervous system’s stress cycles.
Using integrative modalities, therapeutic massage decreases high levels of stress hormones that overwhelm the nervous system when experiencing anxiety or pain.
Massage also provides an opportunity for the nervous system to regulate and for the entire body to relax.
Research shows that massage lowers blood pressure while increasing blood and lymphatic circulation throughout the body, decreasing insomnia, providing feedback for body awareness, and bringing awareness to breathing patterns.
Therapeutic massage can be a supportive treatment in conjunction with mental health services because it provides numerous benefits and allows the recipient to experience decreased stress and a lasting sense of wellbeing.
