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…


Holistic + Medical = Rapid and long-lasting pain relief
