This form of massage therapy helps relieve chronic and acute pain by working on major muscle in segments with specific, deeper strokes to stimulate the individual muscle fibers. Typically your therapist will follow a protocol for a specific problematic area or for a specific condition. Injury massage is effective in treating conditions in the recovery or chronic stages but is not advised during the acute phase of an injury without your doctor’s recommendation. The goal of Injury Massage is to help the client become pain-free.

Why should I choose this style? If you have a specific injury that needs attention such as a rotator cuff tear or a knee surgery, Injury massage is a great choice for you. Also if you suffer from chronic pain in a particular area, injury massage can increase blood flow and mobility and decrease swelling.
