Clinical Massage Therapy

What is clinical massage therapy?

Clinical massage therapy is a specific form of massage therapy that takes into account your clinical diagnosis, injury, or chronic pain as part of your treatment plan. Practitioners providing clinical massage must have extensive, well-rounded training and knowledge in physical anatomy and physiology, and they often work together with other health professionals such as chiropractors and physiotherapists.

Clinical massage incorporates various manual modalities, including deep tissue massage, active release, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, soft tissue manipulation, and cupping. These techniques target muscles, fascia, ligaments, and joints to alleviate pain, improve function, and promote healing.
