MASSAGE THERAPY is one of the oldest forms of remedial therapy. It is an excellent way to relax mind and body by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system and invoking a healing response. It is a modality that is often used to promote general well-being and health and to specifically treat tension in muscles, to ease stiff joints and to promote healthy circulation of the blood and lymph. It is particularly effective in treatment of neck and shoulder pain, tension headaches, back pain and insomnia. The Massage Therapy offered at Heart and Hand includes basic Swedish massage, deep tissue and myofacial release techniques. Only the highest quality Ayurvedic oils are used and are chosen based on the individual’s needs.
