What is Medical Massage Therapy?
Medical massage therapy typically focuses on a specific medical diagnosis. The techniques and approaches used during this type of massage will vary for each patient.
However, the massage will typically be centralized on the parts of the body that have been determined as an area of concern. Instead of massaging the entire body, medical massage therapy focuses on a particular location of your body.
Medical massages are a form of massage treatment designed to resolve medical conditions that a physician diagnoses. I can use different massage techniques and procedures to treat your medical needs during your treatment.
