Massage therapy is the manual manipulation of soft tissues—muscles, tendons, and ligaments—to improve health and well-being, reduce tension, and relieve pain.

You’ll be asked about your health history, areas of tension or pain, and massage preferences. You'll then undress to your comfort level (most people wear underwear), lie on the massage table, and be covered with a sheet. The therapist only uncovers the part of the body being worked on.

Massages can help reduce stress, improve circulation, relieve muscle tension and pain, and promote relaxation and overall well-being.
