Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is a hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints designed to alleviate discomfort associated with everyday 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 therapy has many different subtypes offered at Serenity Health & Wellness. Treatment can be tailored toward Craniosacral therapy, Reiki, Deep tissue, Sports massage or Swedish massage.
Benefits of massage include:
- increased flexibility of muscles, ligaments, and other soft tissues
- relieving muscle aches and stiffness
- increased joint range of motion
- enhancing general relaxation and stress reduction
- improved circulation of blood and lymph
- removal of metabolic waste products from muscles
- improving immune system functioning
