Medical Massage uses Advanced Bodywork techniques and is usually performed with a doctor's note (prescription) but not required. Your therapist will work with you and a multidisciplinary team (if available) to establish a treatment plan: setting goals and frequency of sessions.
Medical Massage is body part specific, outcome based and geared towards healing and repair. Each massage is goal orientated to your specific recovery and rehab needs and wants.
This process can be lasting and profoundly transformative. Client feedback during the session is necessary. Normally this does not include a full body massage depending on the number of issues addressed and the time allotted.

Why is Craniosacral Therapy so Important? Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a light-touch approach that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction, and improve whole-body health and performance.
What Can I Expect From a Session? A typical Craniosacral Therapy session takes place in a quiet, private setting. You remain fully clothed as you relax on a comfortable, padded table. Your therapist begins by gently touching various parts of your head and body to monitor the rhythm of the fluid that is flowing around your central nervous system. By carefully listening with the hands to locate areas of weak fluid flow or tissue motion, your practitioner can trace those areas of weakness through the body to the original source of dysfunction. Delicate manual techniques are then used to release those problem areas, and improve the form and function of your central nervous system. A Craniosacral Therapy session can last up to an hour or more. It can be used alone or integrated with other therapies to facilitate powerful changes. What you experience from your own session is highly individual. The sessions are generally deeply relaxing, creating feelings of warmth or gentle pulsing in the areas the therapist is working on.
