PROMOTING MUSCLE REPAIR
Although massage therapy induces relaxation and relieves aches and pains, many athletes turn to it to improve performance. Massage after an intense workout causes your muscles to enlarge and grow new mitochondria, the cell control centers responsible for converting nutrients into energy. Mitochondria growth increases faster with massage, improving endurance performance by increasing the rate that muscles use oxygen. Massage therapy increases the range of motion and decreases recovery time between intense workouts.
Massage therapy can help prevent injuries if you take advantage of it before conditioning to warm up your muscles and after to help muscles return to their relaxed state. Improving muscle flexibility can reduce your risk of injury. If you are injured, it can reduce your recovery time.

Justin R. Testimonial
This was only my second massage ever, and it was a great experience! Very relaxing, refreshing, and I felt great afterwards. Caydee was very professional, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time, as well as made sure I got exactly what I wanted out of the massage.
B. Matthews Testimonial
Caydee, the Recovery Massage Therapist, is A-maz-ing! This is not a soft soothing massage. If you want true muscle and joint problems worked out, go to her. I’ve had an entrapped nerve for 8 years, numbness in my arms, for 8 years, and I have finally found relief.
Tammy S. Testimonial
I am a waitress and I have planters facsitis and have been trying all kinds of socks, bands and arches. I spoke with Caydee about it and decided to get a deep massage. Caydee is amazing! She also showed me some stretches to do. For the first time in months I have relief!
Drake W. Testimonial
This gal brings the goods. Right out of the gate she worked through head/neck/shoulders and freed up massive tension I always carry, and from there her technique smoothed out the rest of my structure with a varied and diligent technique.
