Hello everyone! I hope you are all enjoying this HOT summer we are having this year.

Earlier this year, I completed a class on Clinical Massage that I am very excited to offer at Sparkle Health. What is Clinical Massage you ask, well, read on to find out all the juicy details!

Clinical massage is a treatment that is outcome based, specific for your needs with a focus toward healing and repair. During these sessions, I will use a broad set of therapies for muscle health and recovery. Clinical massage has been found effective to manage pain, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, relieve nerve compression, improve digestion, increase flexibility, or treat other health concerns. No prescription is needed to sign up for one of these sessions.

I won’t lie, it does not feel like traditional massage. There are no swoopy soft strokes and often no oil or cream is used, but, I assure you, it gets the job done. If you are worried it may be too much for you, please know that I will always stay within your guidelines. Deeper pressure is not the only game in town, folks. Specific, intentional techniques are often far more effective. I include several modalities during these sessions, that could include deeper pressure, but not always. Often I will use a technique that I apply little or no pressure. HUH? Specific movements and stretching done by YOU can often solve the problem. Bottom line, my goal is to have you leave here in less pain than you arrived.

I was certified in April 2024 and I have been using these techniques over the last few months. Not only do they work on their own in a targeted 30 minute session, but they can also be combined with a traditional 60 minute or 90 minute massage and can have some amazing results. When combined with a massage, you get the proven success of the clinical massage and the relaxation that traditional massage delivers. Win-Win!

As always at Sparkle Health, a 15 minute session in our Infrared Sauna is included after your massage.
