Massage is the manipulation of your body’s soft tissues by a therapist. The therapist targets either specific areas to treat aches, pains, and injury or, more generally, well-being and relaxation.
By applying pressure, movement and touch to your body’s skin and muscles, the massage therapist aims to alleviate your symptoms and condition. There are several massage styles, such as deep tissue, Swedish, or sports massages, each with benefits and techniques.

Depending on the area being manipulated, you will either sit or lie down for your treatment. You may be asked to remove clothes if they are restricting the therapist’s ability to treat you. The massage therapist normally uses their hands and fingers to manipulate your soft tissues and joints.
