Misconceptions about Massage Therapy

We have met so may people over the years that believe massage can be either relaxing or effective, but not both. Not So! Our Philosophy on massage therapy is that we work with the tissue, not ON the tissue. We feel that it is our job to assist the client in letting go of holding patterns in their body that create dysfunction, not to FIX them. Clients come to us everyday seeking relief from tension and pain and are pleasantly surprised that they can do so in a calming environment without having to endure painfully deep work beyond their personal limits.
If you are not relaxing in a massage, you are not reaping the full benefit. If you are not receiving skilled touch or specific bodywork, you are also missing out. Massage clients shouldn't have to choose between pain relief and relaxation. We hope you are able to find a knowledgeable, ego-free massage therapists to work with you toward your goal of a balanced and pain free body! If you are not near us in Winter Garden, FL, we would be happy to help you find a LMT to suit your bodywork needs.
In Health!
