Massage Therapy

Massage therapy offers benefits that can enhance your overall well-being and promote a healthier lifestyle. Whether you're looking to relax or seeking relief from specific conditions, massage services can be a valuable addition to your healthcare routine.

Stress and Anxiety Reduction: In today's fast-paced world, stress and anxiety are common challenges. Massage therapy can help you relax both physically and mentally, lowering stress levels and promoting a sense of calm. By manipulating muscles and tissues, massage releases endorphins, the body's natural feel-good hormones, which can alleviate anxiety and elevate your mood.

Pain Relief and Muscle Relaxation: For those suffering from chronic pain or muscle tension, massage therapy can provide significant relief. Skilled therapists target specific areas of discomfort, employing various techniques to alleviate pain and promote muscle relaxation. Improved blood circulation and tension release in the muscles can reduce inflammation and encourage faster healing.

Improved Sleep and Immune Function: Quality sleep is crucial for overall health. Massage therapy can enhance sleep patterns by reducing stress and promoting relaxation. Additionally, regular massage sessions have been shown to boost the immune system, making you less susceptible to illnesses and infections.

Massage Therapy is an alternative therapy that has been around for centuries and every culture utilized a form of massage and other alternative therapies to help individuals on a physical, mental and spiritual aspect to provide a balance in their life. There are two primary forms delivered at Lee Health:

Swedish Massage which is a full body where the therapist's uses long gliding strokes to assist the central nervous system and Therapeutic/Deep Tissue which focuses on a couple of areas of the body in which an individual is having some challenges or can be incorporated into a full body with the focus on those challenging areas. 

The Massage Therapist will start off with relaxing the muscle which would allow the therapists to then go deeper into the muscle and usually using several different techniques or modalities to achieve this.  The therapist's will always work with the patient tolerance. The Massage Therapist can incorporate different techniques or modalities into each session based off of the needs of the patient for that particular session.

During your initial visit your therapist will go over your intake form and discuss your history as well as any challenges you are currently having and create a care plan with you for that session based off of your needs.This process occurs at every visit you have with our Healthy Life Center Licensed Massage Therapist.
