Designed to aid in the treatment of pain or injuries, an orthopaedic massage offers a conceptual approach to the management of soft tissue spasm and dysfunction’s.

The Neuromuscular (Trigger Point Therapy) massage is geared toward the trigger points of the body, which are highly sensitive areas in the muscles that cause localised pain and/or refer pain to other areas of the body.

Chiropractic Doctors apply concentrated finger pressure to these points to break the cycles of spasm and pain. Numerous research studies conducted in the United States, Europe, and Asia have documented that far beyond simply "feeling good"; massage therapy has an impressive range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits.
