Injury Recovery
Whether recovering from an acute injury, surgery or emotional traumas Therapeutic Massage can aide in the recovery process. Massage supports soft tissue healing by facilitating blood flow to the injured area, decreasing the armoring of surrounding muscles, mobilizing scar tissue that forms over the injured area, breaking up fascial adhesions that develop and decreasing associated pain. Massage techniques help normalize the connective tissue thus increasing range of motion and pain free movement. Following emotional trauma Therapeutic Massage can provide needed stress relief and a way to reconnect with oneself in a non-threatening, supportive environment. Massage Therapists can work closely with a client and other counseling services to assure the best recovery possible.Approaches often effective in facilitating recovery following
injury include: Orthopedic
Massage, Myofascial Release,
Deep Tissue Massage,
Reflexology, Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Craniosacral Therapy, Medical Massage, Reiki and Energy work.

Therapeutic massage is very helpful for injury recovery from repetitive strains. These injuries are generally caused from overuse of certain muscle groups because the individual does the same movement over and over (repetitive movement). If these injuries are left untreated they can lead to increased pain, loss of function of the affected area and decreased ability to perform daily tasks. They can lead to loss of work along with costly workman’s compensation claims. Therapeutic massage is very helpful with injury recovery of such repetitive strain problems as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and plantar fasciitis. |
