About Massage Therapy
Technically speaking massage is the manipulation of superficial layers of muscle as well as deeper layers of muscle and connective tissues. The goal of massage therapy with Access Health Centers is to enhance the function and promote relaxation and well-being. Massage involves acting on and manipulating the body tissue with pressure. Target tissues may include muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, joints, or other connective tissue, as well as lymphatic vessels, or organs of the gastrointestinal system. Massage can be applied with the hands, fingers, elbows, knees, forearm, and feet. There are over eighty different recognized massage modalities. In professional settings massage involves the client being treated while lying on a massage table, sitting in a massage chair, or lying on a mat on the floor.
