Medical Massage

Medical massage differs from relaxation massage in that it is outcome-based and specifically targeted to a patient's diagnosis. Our therapists use medical massage as part of a comprehensive treatment plan to address pain, muscle spasm, edema, scar tissue, and restricted mobility.

Techniques used include deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, lymphatic drainage, cross-fiber friction, and myofascial release. Sessions are always focused on a specific clinical goal rather than general relaxation.

Medical massage is particularly effective as an adjunct to exercise therapy and joint mobilization — it prepares tissues for movement and enhances the effectiveness of other interventions.
