Massage therapy introduces the healing power of touch to those who have never experienced it. Safe and gentle, its techniques also reintroduce this power to people who have forgotten it due to life’s daily pressures and demands. Well known for its ability to lessen stress and promote relaxation,  massage therapy is also the perfect compliment to fitness and recreational activities. Therapeutic massage improves cardiovascular, immune and glandular functions. It increases the assimilation of nutrients, helps eliminate toxins, and increases the entire body’s flexability. Before exercise, it helps prevent injury and muscle fatigue. After exercise, it is a delicious “cool-down”, speeding the release of lactic acid and accompanying soreness from the muscles. Massage can also be very effective in the treatment of injuries and chronic pain symptoms such as back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica and carpal tunnel syndrome. Whether this is your year-round home or you are here visiting, massage therapy provides a deeply relaxing way to return to the world renewed and refreshed.
