WHAT IS MASSAGE THERAPY?

Massage therapy is utilized to help manage a health condition, prevent or temporarily relieve pain, prevent injury or enhance wellness by manual and physical manipulation of the body's soft tissues, including muscles, connective tissues, tendons, ligaments, and joints. Registered Massage Therapy is a regulated healthcare profession that consists of assessment and manipulation of the muscles and other soft tissues of the body.

Some benefits that are associated with massage therapy are:

  • Relaxation

  • Reduced stress 

  • Muscle relaxation & flexibility

  • Improved circulation

  • Helps lower blood pressure

  • Better posture 

  • Strengthen the body's immune system

There are different types of massage, which include:

Swedish (classic) massage is a technique using a firm or light pressure on the muscles. It involves long & gliding strokes. Primarily used to surge blood flow, releasing tension in the body's muscles (from everyday activities such as sitting at a computer), as well as improving their flexibility. Highly stimulating to your skin, which helps to reduce physical & emotional stress within the body. Swedish massage may be right for you if you are:

  • New to massage therapy.

  • Seeking relaxation.

  • Experiencing tension.

  • Seeking to manage minor pain.

  • Sensitive to touch.

 

Deep tissue/clinical massage is best utilized on muscle injuries (such as strains) & chronic issues. This technique involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the deeper structures of the muscles & fascia (connective tissue). This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury & to help reduce tension in muscle & tissue. It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow & reducing inflammation. Patients may experience discomfort during a deep tissue massage, specifically if your therapist targets a problem area. Always let your therapist know if the pressure becomes too painful or if you would like to stop the treatment. Deep tissue massage may be right for you if you are:

  • Suffering from severe muscle tension.

  • Seeking help to manage chronic pain.

  • Suffering from trigger points (knots), adhesions & particular problematic zones.

During an instrument assisted soft tissue manipulation (IASTM) treatment, your therapist will use a stainless steel tool to provide the soft tissue massage and manipulation. This tool is gently scraped and rubbed over your skin. The rubbing of the instrument is used to locate and release tightness in the fascial system. IASTM may be right for you if you are experiencing:

  • Limited mobility.

  • Pain with motion.

  • Loss of range of motion.

  • Excessive scar tissue formation.

  • Suffering from trigger points (knots).

The thought behind sports massage is to control the body's soft tissues & activate certain muscle groups relying on the nature of the sport the athlete plays. Sports massage may be right for you if you are looking for:

  • Help to recover from an injury due to repetitive muscle use.

  • Stimulating massage.

  • Improvement in flexibility & sports performance.

  • Reducing your risk of injury.
