Kasey's Therapeutic Massage

A trigger point is a tight area within muscle tissue that causes pain in other places on the body. This therapy can relax constricted areas in the muscles and ease the associated pain. Trigger points feel like small knots or lumps in tissue and many times you have to press deep to feel one. When you press on one you will feel pain that spreads from the trigger point to nearby muscles.

Unlike other massage techniques that focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage is primarily used to treat chronic pain and stiffness in muscles. It also can help you relax mentally. Undergoing regular sessions helps teach the body to repair itself by manipulating the bodies connective tissues into a more relaxed state. This is the most requested and widely practiced therapy and for good reason.

This type of massage uses a variety of motions (sliding, kneading, tapping, etc.) across superficial muscles with the goal of relaxing them. A Classic massage works to increase blood flow, reduce pain and stress as well as improving mood and overall quality of life.
