Massage Therapy is the manipulation of the soft tissues of the body including muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints. Massage therapy is appropriate for the promotion of health and wellness, stress reduction, and the treatment of acute and chronic conditions that affect the soft tissues of the body. The motivation to provide health care assistance to others through touch is a necessary component for considering a career in massage therapy. |
