Massage Therapy Massage therapy has long since been a staple of the wellness programs of many individuals. Massage may help increase circulation, decrease body pain, improve range of motion, decrease stress, and when done consistently is a nice compliment to an active lifestyle. At Milestones we offer two types of massage, sports massage and medical massage. What is sports massage and who can benefit? Traditionally, sports massage is a methodology of massage therapy used to enhance athletic performance and recovery at different stages of a training cycle. Today, sports massage has developed into a term that typically refers to a full body deep tissue massage thats aimed at helping active individuals manage musculoskeletal pain, increase range of motion, and increase circulation enhancing recovery. At Milestones we use a combination of techniques to provide these benefits including deep tissue swedish massage, trigger point therapy, facilitated stretching, and myofascial cupping. Each massage can be tailored to the needs of the individual. Just tell your therapist what areas you would like to focus on! Sports massage does not require you to be an athlete. Anyone can benefit from sports massage. It can be used to help manage aches and pains for both active individuals and individuals who should be more active! What is Medical Massage?  Medical massage is a therapeutic massage designed to facilitate rehabilitation of a variety of conditions and injuries. Medical massages are body part specific, meaning that if you have pain in your shoulder, the entire massage is dedicated to rehabilitating the shoulder instead of the whole body therapy you would receive in a sports massage. Our massage therapists delivering medical massage have a deep understanding of anatomy and manual therapy techniques to help facilitate recovery. We use a combination of deep tissue swedish massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial cupping, muscle scraping, and Rocktape based on how the injury is presenting. Medical massage can be beneficial for a variety of ailments including but not limited to; musculoskeletal pain, arthritis, piriformis syndrome, TMJ, tendinitis, and more! What to wear for your massage? Massage at Milestones is semi clothed. This means that we work with as much skin as possible while keeping you partially clothed. Most women wear athletic shorts (higher up the thigh) and a racerback/tank top/or ideally a sports bra. Most men wear athletic shorts and a tank top or ideally go shirtless. If you are uncomfortable dressing in any of this attire, we offer draping for those that request it. Is massage safe during the Corona Virus Pandemic? During the Corona Virus Pandemic we have increased our safety protocols (to learn more about if massage is safe during The Covid Pandemic, click here). What is the cost?
Movement Rehabilitation Therapy Movement Rehabilitation Therapy (MRT) is a form of musculoskeletal rehabilitation designed as an alternative to Physical Therapy using dysfunctional movement to guide rehabilitation protocols. MRT analyzes your movement patterns, functional strength, mobility and stability to help uncover repetetive strain patterns that may be attributed to your pain. After a movement assessment, typical MRT sessions consist of manual therapy combined with corrective exercises designed specifically for you to re-educate your body into better patterns and habits. Who can benefit from MRT? Typically those with chronic musculoskeletal pain have the most to gain from trying MRT. We see a variety of musculoskeletal issues ranging from, tendinitis, arthritis, bulging discs, SI joint pain, pirifomis syndrome, sciatica, and more! We also can work in conjunction with Physical Therapy and post Physical Therapy to continue your rehabilitation once insurance ends. If you are suffering from an acute injury such as a sprained ankle, torn tendon/ligament, or broken bone you need to seek medical care from your doctor or call 911 immediately. What is the cost? Rates: $120 for 55 min $80 for 40 min Buy 12 (hour long) sessions for $1200 ($100 per session) YOU CAN BOOK AN MRT SESSION HERE We always see our clients for their initial appointment for an hour. Follow up appointments can sometimes be done in 40 min and other times in 55 min depending on the specific issue. The appointment times will be determined by the client and therapist during the initial visit. Clients working through injury with MRT can vary with time of recovery time. We typically see an average recovery time of 3 months but can be as fast as 1 month and as long as 6 months. Every body and every specific case is different. Unlike traditional physical therapy we do not limit your treatment based on insurance claims. Do you take insurance? We do not accept insurance. We do this because insurance can limit treatment durations and pigeon hole treatment modalities. We find that clients seeking MRT need outside the box thinking and insurance restricts this. We DO accept HSA cards.
