What is massage?
Whether you realize it or not, we've all experienced some kind of massage therapy.
Have you ever:
• Received a head scratch?
• Rubbed someone's hands together to keep them warm?
• Put pressure on a sore limb by squeezing it?
Healing and helping through touch is instinctive. A massage therapist uses this instinct to soften tissue throughout the body, which in turn may reduce pain, lessen restrictions in the muscles, facilitate relaxation and promote wellness.
