Headaches

Tension headaches (often called stress headaches) are the most common type of headaches among adults. Pain or pressure in your forehead or on the top or sides of your head? Could be a tension headache. It's especially likely if you've been hunchinng over a desk or some knitting, spent a ton of time in a car, or if you're still shivering and huddling to keep warm as spring slowly creeps in. Massage can help get rid of that headache and regular massage may keep it from coming back.

Low Back Pain

A major research study was published in 2011 showing that massage therapy was better than drugs and usual care for general lower back pain. Better than drugs. I just had to say that twice. Just about everyone will experience low back pain at some point in their life. If it happens to you, don't suffer. Schedule a massage and get back into action.

Irritability

Have you ever been so cranky that you got on your own nerves? Yeah, me too. It isn't fun. It might be time for some self-care when you feel yourself biting everyone's head off. What a better way to for some TLC than a massage? Massage is great for stress relief. You get to shut off all the things that buss, chime, and aggravate you to the point of eye twitches. Music, silence, warmth, massage. Sounds like a wonderful recipe for all the crankiness to disappear. This is a dual purpose. You'll feel better and all the people around you will be happier that you're back to your sunny self.

Got a headache, low back pain, or a case of the grumpies? Get a massage and we'll handle that fast.
