The Body In Harmony

Massage Therapy is a very viable adjunct therapy to be used in conjunction with medical protocol in aiding recovery, pain management, and stress reduction.

As a practice, massage therapy dates back to 2000 B.C. In Egyptian burial tombs, hieorglyphics depicted physicians massaging feet, legs, and shoulders of their patients. Hippocrates learned massage, and felt that gentle stroking induces sleep. Massage is not a cure-all, but through this type of therapy we can strive to improve the quality of life and aid in the healing process. This service should be part of one's wellness and not be considered a luxury.

Massage Benefits

Massage offers a wide host of benefits, both physical and mental, for your well-being. Today, more and more people seek the therapeutic benefits of massage to:

• Relieve arthritis, joint and back pain
• Reduce headaches and migraines
• Improve circulation and general fitness
• Heal sports injuries and stress-related illness
• Relax and revitalize!

Let your therapist know what you're looking for from your massage. This way, they'll know how to plan your session for the best results!
