Massage Therapy

Pro-Active Massage therapists work as part of the rehabilitation team by providing hands-on treatment which consists of mechanical manipulation of the soft tissues in the body such as muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue. Properly administered, massage therapy will help hasten healing, increase metabolism, increase the activity of the circulatory system and the lymphatic system. Massage also serves to relax and refresh muscles, relieve pain and help maintain healthy skin. Massage therapy has the additional benefit of calming the nervous system, promoting a sense of relaxation and renewed energy and assisting in reducing tension and relieving fatigue
