MASSAGE THERAPY


Benefits of Massage (Source: Mayo Clinic 2015) 
Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension. While more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, some studies have found massage may also be helpful for: 
  • Anxiety Digestive issues
  • Fibromyalgia 
  • Headaches 
  • Insomnia related to stress 
  • Myofascial pain syndrome 
  • Soft tissue strains or injuries 
  • Sports injuries 
  • Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain

Our Massage Therapy treatment consists using a combination of treatment modalities including:

Gua sha (also known as scraping, Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization IASTM) Gua sha originates from Traditional Chinese Medicine. It’s a natural, alternative therapy that involves scraping your skin with a massage tool to improve your circulation. In gua sha, a trained therapist scrapes your skin with short or long strokes.

Massage Cupping (from ACE Massage Cupping certification) Cupping has its origins in Traditional Chinese Medicine and combined with massage therapy it becomes a powerful treatment. Creating suction and vacuum pressure, ACE Massage Cupping™ is used to soften tight muscles and tone attachments, loosen adhesion and lift connective tissue, bring hydration and blood flow to body tissues, move deep inflammation to the skin surface for release, and drain excess fluids and toxins by opening lymphatic pathways. ACE Massage Cupping™ therapy is incredibly versatile and the basic movements can easily be customized to accomplish a wide variety of techniques, from lymphatic drainage to deep tissue release. This compliments many health modalities ranging from spa treatments and medical massage to chiropractic, physical and occupational therapies.
