Massage therapy is the hands-on manipulation of soft tissue such as muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints. Massage therapy is designed to relieve muscular tightness, stiffness, spasms and restrictions that limit the mobility, strength, functionality and well-being of the patient.
Therapeutic massage has been shown to improve patient physiology in many ways, having a positive effect on the human muscular, nervous and circulatory systems.
