What Is Therapeutic Massage?

Therapeutic massage is a general term used to describe any type of massage modality that helps to relieve pain, reduce stress, increase range of motion, or improve a specific health problem.

This type of therapy is considered a part of complementary and integrative medicine, and it's increasingly being offered in combination with standard medical care to treat a wide range of medical conditions. Massage is performed by pressing, rubbing, and manipulating the skin, muscles, ligaments, and tendons.

Sports

Sports massage therapy is a great option for those suffering from repetitive strain injuries that impact muscles, nerves, ligaments, and tendons. It can also be used to prevent sports-related injuries by increasing flexibility through a series of range of motion and stretching exercises performed by our registered massage therapy team.

Sports therapy can be performed by our Barrie massage therapist as full-body, or they may focus on the parts of the body that need the most attention. Deep pressure may be alternated with soothing strokes depending on your needs. This type of therapeutic treatment also helps to limit the inflammatory process, and reduce pain.

Deep Tissue

Our deep tissue treatment usually focuses on a specific problem, such as chronic muscle pain, injury rehabilitation, or treatment of lower back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and many other conditions. Feel free to contact our clinic in Barrie to see if the deep tissue method is a viable option for your specific condition.

Deep tissue massage involves applying firm sustained pressure and slow, deep strokes to reach the deeper layers of the muscle and surrounding connective tissues. This reduces muscle tension and helps to break up scar tissue that may have formed from an injury. During the treatment, our therapist may use their forearms, elbows, hands, knuckles, and fingertips in order to penetrate tense areas.

Cupping

Cupping is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which special cups are placed on the skin for several minutes to create suction. The cups are commonly placed along the neck, shoulders, back, and legs. The negative pressure provided by cupping loosens muscles and encourages blood flow.

This technique has also been used to effectively relieve back pain, rheumatism, inflammation, and even migraines. Cupping also promotes healing and detox by helping to move oxygen and nutrients to tight muscles. Cupping may be performed alone or in conjunction with massage for even more relief.

Prenatal

Prenatal massage eases muscle tension and is helpful in reducing stress, muscle aches, joint pain, and has also been shown to improve labour outcomes and newborn health. Mild pressure similar to a Swedish massage is used, and our registered massage therapy professional will mainly focus on the lower back, hips, and legs.

The clinicians at our Barrie clinic have received specialized training in how to properly support and position the expectant mother's body during the treatment, modify techniques, and areas to avoid.
