Therapeutic massage is used to help manage a health problem and improve well-being. This wellness profession involves manipulating the soft tissues of the body. Therapeutic massage is considered to be the simplest and oldest type of treatment. This therapy has been practiced regularly in most Eastern and Western cultures. It was one of the main treatments used by Roman and Greek physicians to relieve pain. Massage therapy has lost some of its value and status with the unsavoury image developed by massage therapy parlours. However, as people came to understand that massage can minimize illness and promote rest, this image faded. As people learned more about the benefits of therapeutic massage and its beneficial effects against illness, it became more appropriate and accepted. Therapeutic massage is now used in a variety of treatment models, including intense treatment models for children, elderly men and women, premature babies and clients with cancer, AIDS or stroke. Most hospitals offer therapeutic massage sessions. This type of massage is frequently offered in health care facilities and drug treatment clinics.

Here, we recommend and guide you through your rehabilitation phase, providing you with exercises to strengthen weak muscles and release tight muscles to get you back to optimum level. A neck pain for instance isn't just about tight muscles and releasing them. Headache is a symptom, I always ask the question - what is causing it, and how do we maintain the treatment I just gave my patients. Most of the time, the root cause of your problem is your posture.
