Medical Massage:

Many medical conditions and injuries can be positively affected by massage.

• headache
• edema (swelling)
• muscle strain
• tendonitis
• plantar fasciatis
• asthma
• fibromyalgia...

This is just a short list of conditions that can be treated using massage. In Medical Massage, oftentimes the massage session is targeted at the particular issue for the bulk of the session, with general work as time permits.

Medical massage is a western modality that is usually performed on a table in positions which give me the best access to the problem that are at the same time the most comfortable for you. Sometimes ice or heat is used in targeted areas to reduce swelling, increase blood flow, and reduce pain.
