WHAT IS MASSAGE THERAPY?
Massage Therapy is an alternative health option that manipulates the soft tissues of the body for therapeutic purposes. It helps alleviate discomfort associated with everyday and occupational stresses, muscular overuse, and many chronic pain syndromes. Massage maintains and improves the function of muscles and joints, benefitting the circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid and decreasing pain and stress. The focus of a treatment can range from addressing a specific injury or dysfunction to simply relaxing.

OSTEOPATHY:
Osteopathic manual practitioners seek to identify and then gently ease the restrictions or constrictions so the body can function normally again.

Manual osteopathy is based on 4 basic principles:

Each structure in the body supports the body's functions. If a structure is damaged, out of place, or otherwise not working properly, the body will not function at its best.
The natural flow of the body's fluids - lymphatic, vascular, and neurological - must be preserved and maintained.
The human body is the sum of its parts. Its physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive systems don't work independently -they work in harmony.
When the body has no restrictions, it has the inherent ability to heal itself.
Osteopathic manual practitioners recognize that a patient is an integrated whole. When all the body's components are in balance, a person is complete and in total health.
