Massage
Massage Therapy is a hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body
including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints.  It is also
an alternative health option to help alleviate the soft tissue discomfort
associated with everyday and occupational stresses, muscular overuse and
many chronic pain syndromes. It can also greatly reduce the development of
painful muscular patterning, if employed early enough after accidents
involving trauma and injury.

Massage therapist’s work to improve the circulation of blood through the
body and to speed the removal of metabolic waste products from muscles.
Their skilled kneading increases the flexibility of muscles, ligaments, and other
soft tissues. Some people visit a massage therapist to relieve pain or to warm
up before a sporting event. Others want to relax and reduce stress.
