what is
"Holistic Medical Massage?"
Holistic Medical Massage is
the combination of
clinical medical massage with
holistic massage.
Medical Massage addresses any kind of pain or health dysfunction PLUS:
- is based on observable and quantifiable outcomes
- uses techniques proven through scientific research
- progress is measured, documented, and tracked over time
- may or may not include a doctor’s prescription for specific techniques
Holistic Massage addresses your specific discomfort or disease PLUS:
- considers the whole system of parts and how they are affecting each other
- addresses posture, repetitive movements, range of motion and other functionality
- adapts the approach to meet the needs of the whole individual, both body and mind, especially for mental health issues and/or trauma
- incorporates healing techniques from many different schools of thought, east and west, both ancient and groundbreaking
therefore…
H+F’s Holistic Medical Massage incorporates ALL of our certified techniques, combined into a custom fit massage for each individual client. These include:
-
- Total Fascia Release (TFR) to relieve tension & pain
- Trigger Point Therapy for muscle “knots”
- Deep Tissue and Swedish massage for circulation & detox
- Post-surgical & injury rehab
- Lymphatic drainage
- Treatment for fibromyalgia and migraines
- Palliative care
- Prenatal & Postnatal massage
- Intervention for PTSD & anxiety, deactivating “fight or flight”
Together, these practices directly target local problems and pain in soft tissue and accelerate healing for both acute and chronic issues. They also improve overall well-being including blood pressure, skin tone and mental health. There is simply no more powerful combination!
