Massage is Primary Health Care!

Massage received regularly has been shown to:

• Reduce blood pressure
• Calm your nervous system
• Loosen tight muscles
• Increase mental alertness
• Dampen harmful stress hormones
• Raise calming, mood-elevating brain chemicals

How is massage health care? Stress is a primary contributor to all major disease. Massage treats stress while it’s still muscle tension, before it can develop into something more serious. It takes you out of your stress, calms your mind and relaxes your muscles, and begins a cascade of benefits to your entire body physiology. Here’s why massage works:

The first benefit of massage begins before your massage even begin. You take a deep breath and exhale all concern. Cell phone turned off, you are off the clock; your comfort and your agenda are all that matter. As Larry begins to massage your muscles, your nervous system literally releases calming, soothing brain chemicals which then fill your body and further the deepening of your relaxation. Your whole body begins to let go. As your nervous system slows down, no longer on alert from the routines of your day, your adrenals stop pumping stress hormones, your muscles further unwind, and all of the systems in your body return toward their own fuller effectiveness and natural efficiency. Your heart rate slows down, blood pressure drops, breathing slows and deepens, and your glandular, digestive, and immune systems return toward their quiet and full operation. And, all the while, your tight, sore muscles are being loosened and unknotted, restored to their resting length, and your joints loosened. Your whole body loosens its grip, you feel more spacious and free in your body again. And you return to the vital calm that is your natural state. What do we call this state? We call it “Feeling good!”

Massage is primary health care; heath care never felt so good!

Orthopedic Massage gives you even greater freedom in your body!

Orthopedic Massage, uncommonly deeply relaxing, is an even more targeted way to loosen tight muscles and restore fuller movement through your joints. This is because Orthopedic Massage, using gentle stretches and more muscle-specific and myofascial techniques, engages the muscles’ own innate desire to return to their relaxed, resting length. Orthopedic Massage gives a faster, deeper, and more lasting relief from muscle tension and a return to fuller freedom of movement.

Orthopedic Massage is quickly effective through the wide range of muscle restriction and tightness, including:

• upper-back, neck and shoulder tension, including headaches, TMJ, and rotator cuff strain
• tight low backs and sciatica
• carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and golf elbow.

Larry offers complete sessions of Orthopedic Massage or combines the Orthopedic work with traditional massage in order to provide you the fullest benefit you want.
