Medical massage is specifically designed to reduce pain and restore normal movement of the body following an illness, accident or injury. Usually requiring a doctor’s prescription, a variety of techniques may be used to customize treatment based on the diagnosis. Techniques may include deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, neuromuscular massage, positional release and joint mobilization.

This massage style is especially good for those suffering from auto or work-related injuries and may be covered by insurance.

Deep tissue massage is often recommended for individuals who experience consistent pain, are involved in heavy physical activity, such as athletes, and patients who have sustained physical injury. It is also not uncommon for receivers of Deep Tissue Massage to have their pain replaced with a new muscle ache for a day or two. Deep tissue work varies greatly but should never be painful.

Massage is a wonderful way to relax, increase your energy, and relieve discomfort during your pregnancy. The caring touch of massage can help you experience your changing body in a positive, accepting way. Heaven & Health has special massage tables, specifically built to accommodate pregnant women. These tables can be used until the later stages of pregnancy, when side-lying massage is more comfortable. Massage is healthful and enjoyable during a normal pregnancy. It is a good idea, however, to inform your primary health care provider before receiving prenatal or postpartum massage.

Many people are unaware that injury symptoms following an automobile accident are often delayed. Common injuries include neck pain, whiplash, thoracic and back pain. If left untreated, these injuries can lead to a lifetime of problems and chronic pain. It is therefore, best to seek treatment as soon as possible after your accident. Delaware is also considered a “No-Fault” state, meaning that car insurance will pay for treatment regardless of who is responsible for the accident.

If you are injured on the job, you are usually covered by Worker’s Compensation under your employer.

Reflexology is a form of bodywork that involves applying pressure to the feet and hands to produce health benefits elsewhere in the body. The underlying theory behind reflexology is that there are certain points or “reflex areas” on the feet and hands that are connected energetically to specific organs and body parts through energy channels, and this style of treatment can help to address conditions like stress, tension headaches, arthritis, digestive problems, insomnia and back pain.
