Therapeutic Massage for Relief and Rehabilitation
At Effect Therapy, we offer a range of massage therapy services, including remedial therapeutic massage therapy. Unlike spa massage, which is typically designed to promote relaxation, remedial therapeutic massage is focused on addressing specific pain or discomfort in the body.
Our experienced massage therapists use a variety of techniques, such as deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and cupping massage, to target problem areas and release tension in the body. By working with the client to identify areas of pain or discomfort, we can develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses their specific needs and helps them achieve better outcomes.
Remedial therapeutic massage therapy has been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, sports injuries, headaches, and more. It can help improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation, providing a holistic approach to healing and well-being.
At Effect Therapy, our skilled massage therapists are dedicated to helping our clients achieve better outcomes through remedial therapeutic massage therapy. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain or a recent injury, we are here to help.

HEALTH BENEFITS THAT..
Begin immediately. One of the biggest advantages Massage Therapy has in its ability to treat conditions, maintain and improve mobility, and manage pain, is its effect on the circulation of blood throughout our body.
Increased blood 'flow' when blood vessels are constricted causes high blood 'pressure'. Alternatively, lower blood flow when vessels are dilated (open) can cause blood pressure to drop too low. els
During massage therapy, blood flow is increased through manipulation of soft tissues, and blood vessels are dilated due to the warm heat this causes. The result is a situation in which your body experiences the benefits of high blood flow without the consequences of high blood pressure.
And that is just where Massage Therapy starts!

CUPPING MASSAGE
Cupping Massage is a therapeutic technique that involves placing special cups on the skin to create suction.

During a Cupping Massage treatment, the cups are placed on the skin and a vacuum is created by either heating the air inside the cup or using a pump. The suction created by the cups can help to release muscle tension and promote relaxation, while also helping to improve circulation and reduce inflammation.
