Massage

The following statements are feedback from one of our valued clients at

Advanced Theraputic Massage:

1.)  What initially brought you to recieve massage, and what was your previous experience with massage care?

-I had a terminal disease shortening my muscle fibers which could eventually lock up my joints.  I sought out massage to not only relieve stress on my muscles and joints but also just to simply feel good.  Previously, I used massage to relieve aches and pains from riding my bicycle 50 to 100 miles a week.

2.)  How did you feel when you first started care?

-Tight and sore.

3.)  What were the most noticeable and immediate results you saw in the beginning?

-With cycling, I noticed immediate relief and my legs, shoulders, and neck.  With my illness, I'm getting immediate release of the tight or "ropey" muscles in my legs, arms, and shoulders.

4.)  How did you feel after your first few sessions?

-More mobile and relaxed

5.)  How would you describe your level of improvement since you began, and specifically how has it improved?

-My disease weakens all my muscles, and if I don't move my body every day, which I cannot easily do, the muscles tighten up.  Having a massage at least twice a week has definately kepy my joints limber and generally free of pain.

6.)  How do you feel now?

-I can't wait to have my next massage!

7.)  What has been your favorite part of massage?

-When it's over; I feel so relaxed and just want it to go on for hours more!

General Comment:

-Being a home bound patient, Advanced Chiropractic and Massage was uniquely accommodating, offering to send a massage therapist to my home.  Their massage therapist (Jolene) is one of the best I've ever experienced.  Not only did she have great skills, but her bedside manner along with her willingness to accommodate my particular situation made the massage experience all that better.  I can highly recommend Advanced Massage and Chiropractic for their skills and service.
