Athletic injuries and repetitive stress trauma can take a toll on your body. With a heavier emphasis on therapeutic deep tissue modalities, like Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, and Passive Joint Mobilization, the goals are less about relaxation and more about improving pain, joint mobility (range of motion), and alignment.

Opening and calming the muscles of a badly damaged shoulder, for instance, is a detailed process that can easily use an entire session. Most such clients have several areas of focus, such as hips, shoulders, forearms, and feet. These sessions usually consist of a combination of many massage and stretching modalities to release knots and fascial adhesions.
