Designed
to aid in the treatment of pain or injuries, orthopedic massage offers
a conceptual approach to the management of soft tissue spasm and dysfunctions.
The Neuromuscular (Trigger Point Therapy) massage is geared toward the
trigger points of the body, which are highly sensitive areas in the
muscle that cause localized pain and/or refer pain to other areas of
the body. The therapist applies concentrated finger pressure to these
points to break the cycles of spasm and pain. Numerous research studies
conducted in the United States, Europe, and Asia have documented that
far beyond simply “feeling good”, massage therapy has an impressive
range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits.
