What is Massage therapy?
Massage therapy is the focused manipulation of soft tissue for a specific outcome. That outcome can be many things like relaxation, increased movement, and reduction in pain. There are many different techniques that can be used to achieve those goals. These techniques such as Swedish massage, assessment, joint mobilization, exercises, and myofascial release are learned in a 2200 hour/2-year course.
