Medical Massage Therapy

Medial Massage treatments are specifically directed to resolve conditions that have been diagnosed and prescribed by a Physician. A variety of modalities may be used during the treatment, but the focus of the Medical Massage treatment will only be the area(s) of the body related to the diagnosis and prescription. Examples include whiplash injuries, headaches, repetitive trauma from the workplace, and post-surgical muscle pain.
