Types of Massage

Massages can be categorized into two groups: A relaxation massage and a rehabilitative massage. Relaxation massages are found in resorts and day spas, while rehabilitative massages can be found in natural health care clinics like Dr. Martin's chiropractic office.

Here are the type of massages offered at Dr. Martin’s office:

Swedish/Relaxation Massage- This type of massage is soft and gentle, and uses long, deep motions and strokes that are used to relax and revitalize the musculature.

Deep Tissue Massage- This is a stronger technique of massage. It is used to reach the deeper muscle layers and helps get rid of chronic tension and adhesions that have built up in the muscles over a long period of time.

Sports/Rehabilitative Massage- It is a combination of gentle and deep massage techniques used as a preventive and post injury treatment for those who play sports.

Trigger Point (or Shiatsu) Massage – This massage focuses on certain points on the body only to help release focal tension in certain muscles that may have been injured or overused.
