Massage therapy uses a variety of techniques to manipulate your joints and soft tissue to improve your body’s overall health. Massage increases the body’s supply of oxygen and nutrients to your muscles, which help release waste from the muscle tissue. Massage also accelerates your body's own natural ability to heal itself.

Types of Massage Therapies
RELAXING MASSAGE
Relaxing massage is a gentle type of full-body massage that is ideal for people that are new to massage, have a lot of tension and are sensitive to touch. A gentle soothing massage can reduce stress, relieve muscle aches, improve your sleep and improve your mood.
THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
Therapeutic massage involves more focused work on your body’s soft tissue - the muscles, tendons and ligaments that move and support your body, and uses more pressure than a relaxing massage. Your physical therapist might recommend that you receive a therapeutic massage to complement other therapies you’re already receiving to treat a particular area of your body. It’s a good option if you have chronic muscle problems, such as soreness, injury, or imbalance.
Therapeutic Massage can relieve muscle pain, reduce fatigue, improve flexibility in your muscles by improving blood-flow and oxygen circulation to muscles, decreasing muscular tightness or knots and lengthening tissue, improve blood circulation, fight migraines and stress, oxygenate the cells, improve body posture and increase immune function.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Sports massage is manual manipulation of the muscles geared specifically toward helping people who have physically demanding lifestyles and/or hobbies. This kind of therapeutic massage considers the impact of certain activities on specific joints, muscle groups, tendons, ligaments, and soft tissue groups.
Sports massage therapy is specifically designed to support and enhance the performance, recovery, and relaxation of people (typically athletes) who are frequently and/or intensely physically active.
Sports massage is a whole-body massage which increase and enhance blood circulation, helps to relieve muscle tension, reduces soreness and make for a faster recovery. The relaxed muscles can experience an increase in range of motion and flexibility and reduces the chance of muscle injury.
