Of all the things you can do for your health, a massage session may be the most beneficial. Come and experience a massage at the HealthPlex. You have a diverse choice in modalities of massage from which to choose and our professional staff can tailor a massage to fit your individual needs.

Swedish Massage - Created in the beginning of the 19th century, this massage system has evolved into the standard in Western civilization. Deep tissue or relaxing Swedish massage consist of kneading, stroking, friction, tapping (percussion), and vibration with over 800 techniques designed to stimulate circulation, increase muscle tone, improve joint movement, soothe nerves and create an all-around balance to the structure and function of the muscular-skeletal system.

Sports Massage - The goal of treatment is to increase the circulation, flexibility, and mental clarity of the individual to improve athletic performance. It does not replace the athletes' warm-up but compliments it. This is not a deep massage but a brisk invigorating variation of sports massage strokes and stretching techniques. It allows a therapist to energize or calm an individual, as needed (usually to specific muscles, as required for a particular sport). Sport massages can be used before, during, or after an event.

Myofascial Release - A highly specialized stretching technique designed to unwind fascia, the thin layer of tissue that covers and connects the muscles, organs and skeletal structures of the body. Gently stretching the fascia with this therapeutic touch releases bonds and restrictions. Pain is dramatically reduced and range of motion increased.

Prenatal Massage Variety - During the 40 weeks of pregnancy, a woman's body goes through complex changes as it prepares for childbirth. This therapeutic bodywork focuses on the special needs of the mother-to-be. Prenatal massage therapy can enhance muscle joint function, improve circulation and body tone, while relieving the mental and physical fatigue experienced during pregnancy.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy - A very powerful, yet subtle energy therapy done on the cranio-sacral system, which is comprised of the membranes and cerebral spinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. The use of a soft, gentle touch generally no greater than 5 grams or about the weight of a nickel, is all the pressure needed.

Medical Massage - Therapeutic massage has been proven to enhance the body's natural healing process for many patients. Specific massage techniques are used to assist healing and alleviate symptoms from chronic ailments.
