XRAYMassage Therapy
Now accepting new daytime patients.
Massage Therapy is used to treat soft tissue ailments in the body. It can be beneficial in the treatment of conditions such as headaches, chronic pain, postural dysfunction, injuries, pregnancy discomfort, stress and anxiety. Along with treatment for recovery, massage can be used as a preventative measure as well.
Myofascial Release Therapy involves gentle techniques applied without the use of oil or cream to alleviate restrictions within the fascial system. This form of therapy is different in that it is a whole body approach to treatment and healing, looking beyond the areas of pain to find and treat the root cause.
