I use elements
of Swedish massage, Reflexology, Myofascial
Release, Acupressure, and Neuromuscular Therapy in my
sessions. But you don't need to know what all
that
stuff is. The only decision you need to make for me is what
you
want your
massage to accomplish. I can relieve overall stress
on a
regular basis (with a full body massage), or I can
decrease pain or rehabilitate an old injury with more isolated
massage
techniques like
Orthopedic or Clinical massage. Most of my
clients
want specific results, and Orthopedic massage delivers. One
client puts it perfectly, 'Tom, you are helping without
hurting.'
I use
a ComfortCraft
power table at my home office. Once you try it, you will see
why
it's the leader in massage table technology. With a sliding
headrest, infinitely adjustable armrests, and a 40 degree
mid-lift, my
table allows me to give you the best massage money can buy!
I
can
work with your training and event schedules using sports massage,
and I
can provide portable chair (popular for the office) and table
massage
services at your location as
well.
If
you have a bunch of friends staying at the cabin or gathering
around
your basement sauna, massage can be the perfect treat for your
guests!
My educators include respected teachers such as James
Waslaski and Sister
Rosalind for a couple of reasons. Their ability to
change
common misconceptions about massage and the results their
clients have achieved are indisputable.
Some of the
conditions I've dealt with include:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Migraine headaches
Tinnitus
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Restless Leg Syndrome
Diabetes
Parkinson's Disease
Multiple
Sclerosis
Stroke
Anxiety
Tennis Elbow
Whiplash
Fibromyalgia
Vertebral fusions
Pregnancy
Arthritis
I
am
proud of my
ability to adjust my massage style to suit your
needs. I don't judge the success of my massage by the
amount of
pain I put you through. The fact is that people usually
wait too
long for a massage, and then want the most bang for their
buck,
thinking a massage has to hurt in order to 'work.' I
certainly
have the strength to do that, but I don't want
to be known as 'Dr. Pain.' Understanding the difference
between
senseless pain and a 'good hurt' is my forte. The trend
these
days is toward a smarter massage style, as even Rolfing, once
known for
its painful treatments, is becoming softer. Not to say a
massage
should be wimpy, but that working with
the tissue instead of trying to
force it to relax will obtain longer lasting results.
Many of my
clients
have
found relief
from long term pain and stress that they thought they were
stuck
with. See what they have to say about my service, when
