Massage therapy is the science of reducing stress, pain and tension by manipulating the soft tissues of your body — muscle, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and skin. Your therapist uses varying degrees of pressure and movement by stroking, kneading, or rubbing with their hands, elbow or specific tools. You will notice quickly how easier your neck, back, shoulders, hips, and knees move. This will help you keep doing the activities you love without feeling you are disappointing your kids, your work or yourself.
