What Is Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy is the physical manipulation of the body's soft tissues in order to relieve stress and pain. A massage is typically applied with hands, elbows, forearms, legs and feet. We also utilize scraping, hot stones and cupping. We currently offer ether a 50 minute massage or 80 minute massage. Our massage therapist have years of experience when it comes to helping patients relieve their stress and tension.
