Services
Neuromuscular Massage
Targeted therapy addressing chronic pain through precise manipulation of soft tissues. This technique breaks pain-spasm cycles by releasing trigger points and restoring muscular balance. Clients receive education on postural habits contributing to discomfort, with customized stretching routines to maintain results between sessions.
Trigger Point Therapy
Specialized treatment for myofascial trigger points causing referred pain. Using sustained pressure and positional release, this method alleviates conditions like tension headaches and sciatica. Therapists educate clients on ergonomic adjustments to prevent trigger point reactivation in daily activities.
Sports Massage
Performance-focused therapy enhancing athletic recovery and preventing injuries. Combines deep tissue work with dynamic stretching to improve range of motion. Tailored protocols address sport-specific stress points, with self-maintenance techniques provided to optimize training outcomes and reduce downtime.
Postural Alignment
Comprehensive assessment identifying muscular imbalances causing poor posture. Corrective sessions realign skeletal structure through myofascial release and targeted strengthening. Clients learn workspace ergonomics and movement patterns to maintain proper alignment during daily activities and work tasks.
Sciatica Treatment
Specialized protocol addressing piriformis syndrome and disc-related sciatic nerve compression. Gentle neuromuscular techniques release gluteal tension while avoiding direct pressure on inflamed nerves. Treatment includes nerve gliding exercises to restore mobility and prevent recurrence of radiating leg pain.

Questions
What makes neuromuscular massage different from regular massage?
Neuromuscular massage targets specific trigger points causing referred pain, using precise pressure to break pain cycles. Unlike relaxation massage, it focuses on correcting muscular imbalances and postural issues through therapeutic techniques and client education.
How long does a typical session last?
Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes, including pre-evaluation and post-session stretching instruction. Complex cases may require extended sessions up to 150 minutes for comprehensive treatment of chronic conditions.
Can massage therapy help with sciatica?
Yes, our specialized sciatica protocol addresses piriformis syndrome and nerve compression through gentle neuromuscular techniques. Most clients experience significant relief within 1-3 sessions combined with prescribed stretching exercises.
What should I wear for a massage session?
Clients should wear comfortable undergarments or athletic clothing that allows movement. Proper draping techniques maintain modesty while enabling effective access to treatment areas during therapeutic sessions.
Do you accept insurance for massage therapy?
We provide documentation for potential insurance reimbursement. While not directly billing insurance, many clients successfully claim therapeutic massage expenses through health savings accounts or flexible spending accounts with physician referral.
