Orthopedic Massage
WHAT IS ORTHOPEDIC MASSAGE THERAPY?
Unlike traditional massage therapy, orthopedic massage isn’t a technique or set of techniques. Orthopedic Massage Therapy is a multidisciplinary approach to relieving muscular and soft tissue pain, dysfunction, and injuries. Meaning that the approach used in orthopedic massage is more comprehensive and seeks to resolve the client’s pain by restoring the structural balance and increasing flexibility throughout the body. This provides the client with a means to heal more quickly from a recent surgery or injury. In reality, orthopedic massage therapy is a specialty that identifies and treats imbalances in the musculoskeletal system. The literal definition of orthopedic is to straighten or correct, and that is what orthopedic massage therapy seeks to accomplish.
