Have chronic pain? Try a Medical Massage which is called an “outcome-focused massage” because it focuses on an area of concern and not necessarily on the entire body. Some of the most common conditions treated are: carpal tunnel syndrome, migraines, whiplash, sciatica, fibromyalgia, TMJ, plantar fasciitis, neck pain, back pain, frozen shoulder, muscle spasms and strained muscles. Techniques and procedures that are used during this type of massage will vary with each patient’s condition. The massage therapies typically used are Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release and Neuromuscular Therapy which all in their own way help eliminate pain and restore motion. A massage therapist can work on a number of medical issues that are either chronic or acute. It is important to know that receiving massage therapy on a regular basis can help with these medical conditions.
