Massage is the practice of applying pressure or vibration to the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and joints. A form of therapy, massage can be applied to parts of the body or successively to the whole body, to heal injury, relieve psychological stress, manage pain, improve circulation and relieve tension. Where massage is used for its physical and psychological benefits, it may be termed "therapeutic massage therapy" or manipulative therapy.
Target tissues may include muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, joints, or other connective tissue, as well as lymphatic vessels, or organs of the gastrointestinal system.

"I am fascinated with the human body, its movements and its muscles, and my goal as a registered massage therapist is to provide the best possible therapy to help my clients enjoy the quality of life that they desire. My palpation skills allow me to understand the density and pliability of the skin, fascia and the more superficial muscles, as a result allowing me to apply the most appropriate and beneficial techniques."
