Injury Treatment & Medical MassageA medical massage therapist is a licensed massage therapist (LMT) who treats health conditions diagnosed by a doctor. This kind of session focuses on treating the affects of chronic illness, injury, and other health conditions such as neuropathy, cancer, fibromyalgia, sports injuries, or even high blood pressure. Focus to areas of injury includes the compensating soft structures of the body that have been over worked. The questions asked during the session seek to help correct the underlying causes that escalate the pain cycle. The patient and Practitioner work together to develop a treatment plan with measurable goals. The ultimate goal to relieve pain, increase quality of life, and to return as much function to the injured area as is possible. Integrated Massage & BodyworkIntegrated Massage and Bodywork is a mix of modalities and styles that is specifically adapted for each patient. It draws on a wide variety of techniques and each session is different to best suit the current moment and changing condition of the individual. *Integrations may include modalities like: Sports massage, Deep tissue, Injury treatment, Swedish, Lymphatic Drainage, Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular therapy, Craniosacral techniques; but also a variety of modalities specific to the unique educational journey of the practitioner. Like Reiki energy healing, polarity therapy, or Assisted Isometric Stretching, and many more... Thai Yoga Massage Traditionally performed on a padded floor mat for greater range of motion, Thai massage can also be adapted for the table. You remain fully clothed throughout this session. Please wear loose, breathable, clothing that is comfortable but not bulky, like you would for doing yoga. This modality facilitates deeper, assisted stretching of the entire body in the session. Thai yoga massage is a wonderful antidote to habitual postures.
