Athletes and everyday people suffer from pain and joint immobilization, (impede movement in a limb, i.e., arms, legs, ankles and wrists)  from overworked and injured joints and muscles.  Functional Massage therapy treatments work alongside your workout or rehabilitation programs given by Doctors, Physical Therapists and Personal Trainers to help speed up recovery time from injuries, when used in conjunction with training and rehab, this massage can help strengthen muscle and increase joint mobility. Functional Massage is a combination of Sports Massage, Myofascial Release (MFR), Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, Stretching and Active ROM.

Structurally, the body gets beat up as we go through life and gets to the point where you just don’t move the way you used to. This can also happen after you have been in an accident, had an injury, or have gone through surgery.  Scar tissue builds up around injury sites during the process of healing and building up of new tissue.  Often the scar tissue works too well and covers more of the area than it needs to, decreasing the amount of R.O.M. a joint has, or the flexibility a muscle has.   Functional Massage Treatments help the client work through the R.O.M. and increase the movement and flexibility to have you moving and feeling better within the first visit.  When you realize after the massage you have a new freedom in movement, you will be amazed at how much you were just dealing with.  The more you come in the more benefits you will see, we can’t get to everything in one visit, but after a few hours of treatment, your body will start to feel young again.  Post surgical treatments do take a longer period of time and follow strict Doctors orders of treatment procedures to healing, but the massage will help with increased circulation and decreased scar tissue forming in areas that have to be immobilized.
