This massage is targeted at precise areas of the body to relieve chronic and sub-acute pain. A combination of trigger point therapy, myo-fascial release, and passive stretching are used to stimulate healthy formation of connective tissue, restore proper range of motion in joints, and promote correct body posture. In combination with active stretching, thera-peutic massage may reverse some postural disorders such as swayback and head forward. This treatment relieves symptoms from sports injuries, rotator cuff injuries, whiplash, carpal tunnel and TMJ syndromes.
