About Melanie

As a massage therapist and orthotherapist, I chose these techniques for the effects and results that help clients regain normal mobility. I also offer Swedish relaxation massage and therapeutic massage. I love to see the difference before and after a treatment and that I am making a difference in their well-being and everyday life. Whether it be for muscle tension, bursitis, tendinitis or sciatica, I have several techniques at my disposal.

About Massage & Orthotherapy

Massage is the practice of manipulating the muscles, connective tissues, tendons, and ligaments of the body using hands, fingers, or sometimes devices. It is often performed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, relieve tension, alleviate pain, and improve circulation. There are many different types of massage, such as:

  • Swedish massage: A gentle form that involves long, flowing strokes, kneading, and circular movements to relax muscles and improve circulation.
  • Deep tissue massage: Uses more pressure to target deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, often to help with chronic pain and tightness.
  • Therapeutic Massage, A healing practice that uses targeted techniques to relieve tension, reduce pain, and promote overall well-being.
  • Myofacial Release: Involves gentle, sustained pressure on the connective tissue (fascia) to relieve pain, improve mobility, and release tension.
  •  Isometric exercises: The contracting of muscles without changing their length or moving joints, enhancing strength and stability through static holds.

 

Massage can be used for relaxation or therapeutic purposes, helping with conditions like stress, muscle soreness, anxiety, or poor circulation.

Orthotherapy is a therapeutic practice that focuses on correcting and improving the body’s musculoskeletal system. It combines elements of massage therapy, physical rehabilitation, and postural correction to relieve pain, enhance mobility, and restore balance in the body.

 

Orthotherapy aims to:

  • Realign the musculoskeletal system: Through various techniques, orthotherapists work to restore proper alignment and function in the muscles, bones, and joints.
  • Reduce pain and discomfort: The treatment can help alleviate chronic pain, muscle tension, and discomfort related to poor posture, injuries, or overuse.
  • Improve posture: One key goal is to correct imbalances in posture that may cause pain or dysfunction over time.
  • Enhance mobility and flexibility: Orthotherapy helps restore range of motion and flexibility, often used for rehabilitation after an injury or surgery.
  • Promote long-term healing: The focus is on both immediate relief and long-term health by addressing the underlying causes of discomfort, not just the symptoms.

 

Techniques used in orthotherapy can include deep tissue massage, stretching exercises, and corrective movements. It is often used to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, joint issues, sports injuries, and postural imbalances.

THE BENEFITS OF massage

Overall, massage is a holistic approach to promoting both physical and emotional well-being.
