Is Therapeutic Massage Different from Massage?

These are often used interchangeably, but there is a difference. 

Massage is a general bodywork practice that focuses on improving overall well-being. Pressure may be lighter. You typically get a massage in a spa-like setting with someone with adequate massage training but may not be as well-versed in anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics.

Massage therapy is more involved and often has a therapeutic goal in mind. Therapists are typically more knowledgeable in anatomy and physiology, and treatment plans are more customized for conditions such as pain management and injury rehabilitation.

Our massage therapy techniques offer whole-body care by manipulating the soft tissues to promote physical relaxation and reduce tension, effectively aiding recovery. 

Massage therapy has many therapeutic benefits, nurturing physical and emotional balance and integrity. These benefits are typically intensified when massage therapy is used to complement chiropractic care and physical therapy.

TRIGGER POINT ​

MASSAGE THERAPY

Trigger points are found throughout the body and are often referred to as knots. They generally garner localized, tender areas in a muscle.

Our skilled therapists treat trigger points by applying sustained pressure to affected trigger points, inducing relaxation and enhancing blood circulation.

We employ various trigger point massage methods, such as direct pressure, massage tools, foam rollers, and even dry needling, to tailor an approach to your unique needs.

Trigger point therapy has many benefits, such as alleviating pain, enhancing range of motion, and optimizing muscle function. It’s excellent for headaches, migraines, and chronic pain syndromes.

SOFT TISSUE​

Mobilization

Fascia is connective tissue surrounding and supporting your muscles, bones, and organs. Your fascial network connects all your muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones together. When your fascia becomes rigid from overuse, injury, inactivity, stress, and other conditions, you may experience tightness and restricted motion.

 

Here’s what our soft tissue mobilization can do for you: 

  • Reduce muscle tension and tightness: Unlike a traditional deep tissue massage, we work through different layers of your connective tissue to relax and mobilize restricted muscles. This offers immediate tension relief, more flexibility, and a better range of motion.
  • Relieve pain: We’ll work through tissue restrictions and adhesions so your muscles return to their relaxed state, decreasing pain and limitations.
  • Improve circulation: Our mobilization technique increases blood flow, nutrients, and oxygen to your injured and painful areas to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall tissue health.
  • Reduce scar tissue: We’ll break down adhesions and scar tissue to increase blood flow, promote healing, and improve flexibility.
