About

Patty Whiting, Licensed Massage Therapist

Therapeutic Massage is one of the world's oldest healing
arts. It's aimed at improving health through manipulation of
muscles and soft tissue. Many of the therapeutic effects of
massage over the years have been supported by scientific
research.

I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist for 23 years. I decided
to begin a career in massage therapy after receiving my first
massage which was a gift to me from a doctor that I worked for. I
felt so wonderful after, that I began doing research on the benefits
of massage and was so intrigued that I went to school to become a
licensed massage therapist.

I have also worked part-time as an Emergency Medical Technician
for several years while building my massage therapy business. I
believe that my other medical training assist me in understanding
my clients medical background and how massage therapy can
benefit each person individually.

Massage therapy as evolved over the years. It is now recognized by
many insurance companies and doctors as a medical treatment. I
will work with you and your doctor when medically necessary with
a prescription for reimbursement.

I believe everyone can benefit in some way from massage therapy.
Whether it be for stress, chronic conditions or an injury.

I practice massage therapy independently. Appointments need to
be scheduled as my office hours vary according to my clients
scheduling needs.

" Massage Therapy for a Healthier Life."

Services Deep Tissue
Releases the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and
deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the
grain of muscles, tendons and fascia. It is called deep tissue, because it also
focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue.

Relaxation
The benefits of Swedish massage include increased blood circulation, mental
and physical relaxation, decreased stress and muscle tension, and improved
range of motion.

Trigger Point Therapy
applies concentrated finger pressure to "trigger points" (painful irritated areas in
muscles) to break cycles of spasm and pain.
Accident, Injury/Trauma Therapy
Some insurance companies cover massage therapy with a
prescription from your physician, call for more information.

Massage therapy can help relax the muscles, increase and maintain
range of motion, decrease stress and tension, increase circulation,
and prevent and breakdown scar tissue formation.
