Why our Clinic is Different?
Experience a different kind of massage therapy
What is medical massage?
We offer Medical Massage Therapy with Neuromuscular Approach that explains
relationship between every part of your body. It is a scientifically based
Manual Therapy System that finds and treats the Cause of your Pain. These
treatments are designed to treat and solve your specific problems for a short
period of time efficiently with profound effect on your body.
Medical Massage Therapy with Neuromuscular Approach is a system of manually
applied techniques designed to reduce pain, establish normal tissue tension,
and create a positive tissue environment and to normalize the balance and the
movement of the musculoskeletal system.
Holistic Medical Massage Clinic in Tacoma specializes in applying these manual
therapy techniques under the prescription and supervision from a medical,
naturopathic and osteopathic doctor, physical therapist and a chiropractic
doctor.
On the first visit the therapist evaluates the patient by screening gait
patterns and measuring the positioning of the body to determine musculoskeletal
distortion, biomechanical dysfunction and soft tissue pathology that causes
these patterns. An exacting analysis of proper posture and biomechanics
explains the cause and effect relationship to pain. Once we know how your body
works, we can determine the reason why you have pain and the other symptoms.
Then the therapist develops a treatment plan that is based on the knowledge of
your body. We don’t guess, we know how to treat you because of exact analysis
of your body and understanding of your problem. Your therapeutic massage
treatment is custom designed for you because we apply pressure and specific
techniques that are unique only for your body. That’s why our treatment is
effective and different from others.
Once the body is balanced, the patient is able to restore an efficient way for
energy to move. Free energy is used by the body to work more efficiently and
improves all physiological activities.
In Holistic Medical Massage Clinic we use different therapeutic massage
approaches and techniques depending on particular muscular and internal
conditions.
We provide broad scope of massage treatments to deliver wonderful benefits of
therapeutic massage for muscles, fascia, joints, ligament, tendons and soft
tissue of internal organs.
We offer therapeutic massage for neck, shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists, hands,
upper, middle and low back, legs, knees, ankles and feet.
We recommend massage therapy for pain management, improving skin, posture, body
mechanics, blood circulation and blood pressure, breathing, detoxification,
energy, immune system, stress relief and many other aspects of your health.
What is the difference between Medical Massage and Relaxation Massage?
Relaxation massage is usually performed by massage therapists working in a
SPA-type setting and is described as a general, feel-good massage. These
massage therapists while well trained in relaxation-based massage, generally
lack both the knowledge and experience to treat specific musculoskeletal
disorders.
Medical Massage Therapists at the Holistic Medical Massage Clinic in Tacoma have been trained in the following clinical criteria:
-
Medical Massage Therapy with Neuromuscular Approach is used as a specific
manual therapy to the areas relating to the diagnoses provided by the primary
care physician.
-
Medical Massage therapy with Neuromuscular Approach is applied to an region of
the patient's body based on musculoskeletal distortion and soft tissue
pathology.
-
Medical Massage treatments involve stages of manual therapy treatment whose
goal is to correct imbalance in the muscle-skeletal system while reducing or
eliminating pain.
-
Medical Massage applies the medical terminology, techniques and protocols used
by the traditional allopathic, medical systems of health care.
