Did you know massage can improve performance - aid recovery - prevent and eliminate injuries - reduce stress and even enhance metabolism and circulation!
Massage therapy helps relieve the pain that is caused from muscles spasms and overusing the muscles in the body. It also helps to increase your motion range and improve flexibility. It also improves blood circulation which in itself has a variety of benefits that can affect your entire general health.

There are four main stages of healing through massage:
relief, correction, strengthening, and maintenance.
Relief
The first few sessions of massage therapy will be aimed to relieve pain, reduce muscle tension and relax stressed nerves. The relief sessions are aimed at the symptoms of the problem.
Correction
When the pain is gone, the therapist will work on the problem that caused the pain. Techniques will be aimed at stimulating your lymphatic system and freeing knotted and scarred muscle fibers.
Strengthening
Strengthening is important in a badly damaged area. Weakness at the injury site can mean recurring problems. Techniques will be aimed at strengthening the tissues near the injury enabling them to provide adequate support when the injury is healed.
Maintenance
Maintenance is the final stage in healing and the first step in preventing other injuries. Maintenance techniques are aimed at treating the problem and preventing the occurrence of new problems.
