       NEUROPATHY RELIEF

FDA approved, "Electronic Stimulation" for nerve and muscle rebuilding.  Athletes and those wishing to "sculpt" or "rebuild" their muscles have used electronic stimulation for years.  But, few realize that the same treatment used to sculpt muscles can be used as pain relief or to treat the following conditions as well:

Restore feeling to feet and hands due to various neuropathies including:

  • General Neuropathy
  • Peripheral Neoropathy
  • Age Related Peripheral Neuropathy (ARPN)
  • Diabetic peripheral neuropathy and nerve pain
  • Idiopathic neuropathy
  • Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP)
  • Axonal neuropathy
  • Chemotherapy induced neuropathy
  • As well as symptomatic relief from:
  • Restless Leg Syndrome
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Post Polio Syndrome
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Scistic and Piriformis Entrapment Syndrome
  • Chronic intractable pain
  • Muscles spasms
  • Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
  • Venous Stasis
  • Disuse muscle atrophy
  • Post-op pain and rehabilitation
  • Stroke rehabilitation
  • Symptoms related to Lyme's Disease
  • Symptoms related to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
  • Simple neck, shoulder pain and back pain

Our ReBuilder technology has even proven effective with Knee Replacement recovery!

When accompanied with standard massage therapy, electronic stimulation increases circulation to endemic areas, reducing pain and increasing a sense of well-being, thus saving money on pain medication. 

Electronic stimulation/Body Work is a non-medical procedure, which is painless, non-invasive and can be used by most people.  Please use the link to the left for more details and for any contraindications!

                                    WHAT WE DO!

We offer many modalities to help with almost all aches and pains; 
Swedish, Reflexology, Lymphatic Drainage, Shiatsu/Tuina Acupressure, Geriatric, Hot Stone, Pressure/Trigger Point, and Sports/Injury (Pre, During and Post Event).  We offer some out calls, such as corporate chair massage for head, neck and shoulders.  One doesn't have to 'hurt' to enjoy massage.  A relaxing Swedish massage will decrease stress and increase well-being.

Massage sessions combine multiple techniques.
To increase client comfort, either a well-padded, ergonomically designed massage chair or an oversize, padded massage table, rated up to 450 pounds will be used for treatment. 

To create the personalized treatment each client requires, an "intake evaluation" is conducted at the start of the first visit.  This includes reviewing health history including any current or ongoing medical issues.  Massage is a safe therapy but there may be some conditions that require written guidelines and or permission from the client's medical provider before treatment can begin. 

This website offers descriptions of the various types of massage we have studied and have earned certification.
