WHAT IS MEDICAL MASSAGE?
Medical Massage Therapy is outcome-based massage and performed as part of a healthcare provider’s overall treatment plan, so the massage therapy is typically concentrated on a specific medical diagnosis. The exact techniques and procedures that are used during this type of massage will vary from each patient. However, the massage will typically be centralized on the parts of the body that have been identified as an area of concern. Instead of massaging the entire body, medical massage therapy tends to focus on a particular area.

BENEFITS OF MEDICAL MASSAGE:
The specific benefit of medical massage therapy depends on the condition that is being treated. However, benefits of the therapy can include:
- Helps to decrease inflammation and pain
- Deactivates Myofascial trigger points
- Aids digestion
- Calms and soothes the nervous system
- Improves posture and coordination
- Helps in preventing future chronic pain conditions
- Improves flexibility and range of motion
- Releases sore and tense muscles
Medical massage has been shown to be highly effective at reducing cases of future chronic pain conditions by dealing effectively with the base cause of the problem. Current studies have shown that the vast majority of pain in chronic conditions, over 80%, comes from soft tissue injuries and over 74% is directly related to trigger points. As well as eliminating the base cause of the pain and helping the individual to live a less painful existence, medical massage therapy is very cost effective. Less time is spent away from work or having to deal with the side effects of pain reducing drugs. If you are suffering from chronic pain, medical massage may be right for you.
