Massage Therapy

Treatment

Massage therapy can bring more than relaxation. Soft tissue massage techniques can promote healing, improve general health and encourage higher levels of wellness.

Clinical research shows that therapeutic massage can be effective in:

  • Boosting immune system function
  • Reducing and relieving stress
  • Helping sore muscles relax so they can heal faster
  • Increasing blood circulation
  • Reducing blood pressure by promoting relaxation
  • Controlling and managing pain

Your expertly trained Mercy massage therapist will assess your needs and talk to you about what kind of techniques could be used and answer any questions you may have. If you think you could benefit from massage therapy, make an appointment to discuss your goals with your primary care doctor.
