What is Massage Therapy?

Massage therapy has a therapeutic effect on the body. It has been a proven method to relieve muscle and joint pain, calm the nervous system, improve the circulatory system and promote lymphatic drainage. Massage Therapists use their excellent knowledge of anatomy and physiology to combine traditional Swedish and modern Massage Therapy techniques with exercises and other therapies to restore tissue health. Massage therapy benefits people of all ages and can be used in the treatment for both acute and chronic stages of conditions.
What is CranioSacral Therapy?

It works closely with the central nervous system to help the body to self correct and heal.
