# The Benefits of Massage Therapy

## Massage Therapy

 Massage may seem like an indulgent spa-day treatment or pampering activity, but research has proven its health advantages. Massage therapy has even become part of patients’ medical treatment plans to relieve discomfort after injuries or surgery and aid recovery.

 Deep tissue massage aims to release tight muscles and tendons that cause chronic discomfort by applying deep pressure with deep pressure to increase blood flow, helping release knots and tension in knotted muscle groups. Hot stones may also be used as relaxation methods and promote overall well-being for optimal patient relaxation and wellbeing.

 Cranial sacral massage, also known as craniosacral massage, uses light touch and subtle movements to assess and address imbalances within the craniosacral system; which includes membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds both brain and spinal cord. Cranio sacral massage has been shown to effectively treat headaches, stress-related disorders and temporomandibular joint dysfunction.

## Neuromuscular Therapy

 Neuromuscular therapy (NMT) is a type of massage designed to address chronic muscle and nerve conditions, including pain. NMT is particularly useful for treating trigger points, circulation issues, nerve compression issues and postural problems caused by repetitive movements; additionally it can relieve back pain, neck pain such as sciatica as well as carpal tunnel-like symptoms as well as tempromandibular joint disorder (TMJ) which affects jaw movement.

 Experienced neuromuscular therapists use precise manipulation and release techniques to unclog any factors interfering with normal communication between your brain and muscles – an integral element for pain-free movement.

 Neuromuscular therapists specialize in finding and treating areas of muscle tension called tender or trigger points, which have limited blood flow and prevent your muscles from relaxing, leading to pain in other parts of your body. A specialized form of massage known as digital pressure and friction massage is used to release these hypersensitive points; trigger point massage therapy often alleviates referred pain by sending sensations such as pain, tingling or numbness across different parts of the body from where the painful area originates.

Neuromuscular therapy sessions typically last 30 or 60 minutes with your therapist employing techniques including trigger point, neuromuscular, myofascial and deep tissue techniques in order to ease pain relief.
