What is massage therapy?
Massage therapy is a form of manual therapy that involves a trained massage therapist rubbing and kneading the soft tissues of your body with varied pressure and movements. Soft tissues include muscle, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and skin.
Massage styles range from long, smooth hand strokes to short, percussive strokes. Your therapist may use specific oils and lotions during the massage, and you undress only to your comfort level.

What types of massage therapy do you offer?
The Healing Point offers several types of massage therapy. Sessions will be tailored to meet your specific needs.
Swedish
Swedish massage is the most common type and involves your massage therapist using long, soft, kneading strokes and rhythmic, light tapping strokes on the topmost layers of your muscles. It can leave you relaxed and energized.
Deep tissue
A deep tissue massage addresses specific painful, stiff spots in your body. Your therapist applies pressure to deeper layers of muscles, tendons, and tissues. It may help ease chronic patterns of tension and support recovery from muscle strain.
Shiatsu
Your therapist uses varied, rhythmic pressure on acupressure points in your body, which in traditional Chinese medicine support the flow of your body's vital energy (qi).
Lymphatic drainage
This massage uses light pressure with gentle, long strokes along your skin to encourage the movement of lymph through your system.
Prenatal
Prenatal massage may take pressure off your hips, encourage relaxation, and help with foot and leg swelling. Please let us know how far along you are, and check with your provider if your pregnancy is high risk.
