General Massage Therapy can benefit the young, the old and all ages in between. There are several general types of massages offered including the Swedish Massage, the Geriatric Massage, the Neruomuscular Therapy and the Seated/On site Massage.
The Swedish Massage helps patients de-stress and unwind during a relaxing hour of calming therapy. Geriatric Massage focuses on range of motion, movement and gentle stretching. The neuromuscular therapy is a comprehensive program of soft tissue manipulation balancing the body’s central nervous system with the musculoskeletal system. Often referred to as the “New Coffee Break” the seated/on site massage is perfect for the office or workplace.
