Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is often used as a part of our integrative treatment plan. Our trained, medically-certified massage therapist works with you to create a customized approach to help you achieve wellness goals such as injury recovery, relaxation, or stress reduction.

Addressing Your Specific Needs

While the benefits of massage may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aiding in recovery and range of motion, some studies have found that massage may also be helpful for:

  • Soft tissue strains and injuries

  • Exercise-induced soreness

  • Sports injuries

  • Headaches & migraines

  • Temporomandibular joint pain (TMJ)

  • Digestive disorders

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Anxiety disorders

  • Insomnia related to stress

  • Movement disorders (MS, Parkinson’s Disease)

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

  • Geriatric-related conditions

  • Cancer treatment recovery

Our specially trained therapist will tailor treatment to address changes and physical discomfort brought on during pregnancy.

Alleviates Discomforts and Promotes a Healthy Pregnancy

Prenatal Massage shares many of the goals of regular massage and specific benefits to mom include:

  • Relaxation / stress relief
  • Eases muscular discomforts in the neck, back, and joints
  • Reduces edema, or swelling of hands, feet, and ankles
  • Lessens sciatic pain
  • Increases local circulation and lymph flow
  • Reduces muscle tension and headaches
  • Improves sleep
  • Digestion (constipation, gas, nausea, indigestion)
  • Eases stress mothers often feel after birth
  • Promotes circulation

Our expert massage therapist will ensure that the desired pressure is tailored to your preferences. If you want deeper work and can tolerate more pressure, you may discuss deep tissue/myofascial massage with your therapist.

 Concentrating on Areas of Tension and Pain

A deep tissue massage technique uses slower, more forceful strokes to target the deeper layers of your muscles and “muscle knots” such as tightness in the neck and upper back, low back, or sore shoulders. This type of massage is used to restore movement and prevent future pain — often as a complement to chiropractic treatment.

 

Regardless of your age, if you’re involved in sports activities, a Sports Massage can help prevent or treat injuries using similar techniques as the Deep Tissue Massage and may include concentrated work on specific areas of the body related to your sport.

Recovering from Injury or Preparing for an Event

Sports massage therapy helps you recover from a specific sports injury or is customized to help you prepare for an upcoming sporting event or race, such as a 5k or Triathlon.

When your massage therapist applies organic, Colorado-grown industrial hemp oil, your body receives quick relief from pain and inflammation.

Delivers Powerful Anti-inflammatory Action to Your Skin Without Affecting Your Mind

Using hemp oil leads to relatively slow and uniform absorption, ensuring your skin remains moisturized and receives hemp oil’s benefit to reduce muscle soreness and joint pain over a longer timeframe.

Additional benefits of CBD massage include:

  • Delivers potent antioxidants stronger than vitamins C and E
  • Powerful analgesic (pain relief) works especially well for traditionally difficult-to-treat neuropathic pain
  • Powerful anti-inflammatory
  • Increases muscle relaxation without the “high” associated with smoking or ingesting Cannabis products
  • Regulates blood pressure
  • Facilitates bone growth
  • Improves skin health
  • Provides antibacterial germ-fighting properties
  • Aids in post-workout recovery
