Massage Therapy Services

I am an Orthopedic Massage Therapist. I provide manual therapy, orthopedic and sports massage services. I am dedicated to helping people obtain relief from sub-acute, acute and chronic pain. I am also deeply focused on helping others recover from surgery, injury as well as chronic, reoccurring pain.

​

The techniques I use primarily are part of a system called the Hendrickson Method, which integrates manual therapy and orthopedic massage techniques, to achieve a deeper sense of relief and healing, without the pressure and pain normally associated with traditional deep tissue massage techniques.

​

I am a certified Hendrickson Method Practitioner and Therapist.

​

For more information about the Hendrickson Method, see Jim's areas of expertise.

​

I also integrate these specific modalities into the healing process, based on individual client needs and requirements:

​

Myofascial Release (MFR)

• Myofascial Cupping

• Myofascial Flossing

• IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization)

 

Manual Lymph Drainage – Used to gently help reduce fluid retention in the extremities 

 

Cryotherapy (Ice) – Used to reduce pain and inflammation at the location of pain or injury

 

Thermotherapy (Heat) – Used to reduce sore, stiff muscles after a recent workout 

 

Kinesio Tape Therapy – Used to facilitate motion, inhibit pain and spasms. It provides support for joints and muscles, movement of lymphatic fluids, correct movement patterns, and improve posture.

 

Assisted Stretching – The aim is to increase flexibility and mobility while reducing pain and stiffness by utilizing both static and dynamic techniques.

 

Vibration Therapy – Used to temporarily reduce muscle tension and stiffness.

 

WebExercises – An online database of over 3500 exercises. Each client is given a subscription of up to 12 weeks which provides access to 5-10 specific exercises I have prescribed that I believe will help to facilitate the healing and recovery process. Each exercise includes a video demonstrating the proper techniques to perform each exercise along with recommendations for the frequency, and the number of reps per set.
