Swedish/Relaxation Massage While Swedish massage has some commonly recognized therapeutic effects, it is generally known as relaxation massage. The primary outstanding characteristics to this treatment session consist of light pressure and gliding strokes. Treatment focus is to increase circulation, improve well being, and overall relaxation. |
Prenatal/Postnatal Massage: Pre-Natal Massage - This modality is performed with the client on her side, supported through the length of her body with firm bolsters and pillows, and is designed to aid with sleep, digestion, physical pains, and the proprioceptive issues that accompany each specific trimester. The work can range from light-to medium pressure, and focuses on such problems as swelling, sciatic pain, and low back pain. As you get closer to "the big day", your massage therapist will work to assist the natural stretching of tissues and to prepare your muscles for delivery. Post-Natal Massage - This modality is designed to help the body's recovery process and to give relief to the new mother from sleep deprivation and the neck-and-shoulder aches associated with nursing and carrying a newborn. This work can range from light to deep pressure and focuses on strengthening muscle tissue, assisting circulation, and regaining normal posture and weight-bearing within the body's framework. Your therapist can also address any concerns you have about re-starting your normal exercise routine and help you achieve your recovery goals. Click here for prenatal/postnatal testimonies |
"Unlike any other massage I have ever had before! I'm finally able to get back running again after months of agonizing discomfort. Seeing my therapist at Orthomed has helped me tremendously. I'm now back in action again and training for my next triatholon. Much thanks! -Mike D. *********************************** "Ive been recieving massage therapy from massage therapist Maryann Reid at Orthomed for two years now. When I first started with her I would wake up in the morning and barely be able to get out of bed. I'm now back to my exercise program, working with a personal trainer, doing yoga AND pilates, and most importantly doing it without pain! She is fantastic!" -Laurie K. **************************************** "After starting a work out regime, I developed soreness, pain, and visible knots in both calves. I consulted a doctor about my injury and after giving me muscle relaxers, suggested I see a massage therapist. I took the muscle relaxers for a month and nothing happened. I sucked it up and scheduled a massage at OrthoMed and after a one hour session, all of the knots were worked out of my calves, and I haven't had pain since. My workouts are better than ever, and my experience with Deep Tissue Therapeutics has helped transform my life for the better." -Adam D. *********************************** I have been there twice. Very convenient location, reasonable rates, clean and nice decor. The staff are friendly, and the massage A+++. Maryann worked on my neck and shoulder for an hour and it is heavenly! - Yvonne A. *********************************** "I have Fibromylagia. Maryann's treatments helped relieve my pain and made life bearable during a very difficult time." - Joann H. *********************************** " Maryann really listened to what my concerns/needs were, and then used her knowledge to explain how she would proceed, given all the information. I felt as though she was invested in figuring out if treatment would be useful for my injury, and she explained what she was doing as she went. She was also open to my questions." Robin P. *********************************** "I went to Orthomed for a general 'tune up' massage and gave her special instructions, 'Don't bother with my right arm. It hurts like hell, so much so that I physically can't reach over into my car's back seat and pick up a book.' In quiet reassuring manner Maryann said, 'Let me have a look at that.' I must confess to a degree of skepticism when she DIDN'T massage my arm but went to the scapula and worked in, under and around it. Amazingly, she CORRECTED it! When I left her studio I sat in my driver's seat, threw my arm over the seat and, PAIN FREE, was actually was able to pick up a book in the back seat for the first time in many months. Maryann brings the ability to intellectually engage me in her massage work. I so appreciate understanding what and why she is doing what she does." Greg Y. |
