Therapeutic Medical Massage
Therapeutic Massage is recommended for guests who are dealing with injuries or conditions that need focused massage. These conditions may include, Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Temperomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJD) and more. This massage is also good for people recovering from muscle sprain/strain. Massage should not be used within the first 24-48 hours of injury.

Deep Tissue Massage
This massage is good for those who like deep pressure, but does not necessarily have specific injuries or conditons. Deep tissue massage uses a variety of different techniques to relax the deeper layers of muscle. Remember, Massage does not have to hurt to be beneficial. Always feel free to give your massage therapist feedback on the amount of pressure being used, whether you would like more or less pressure.

Swedish Massage
If you need to just relax and unwind, then the Swedish massage is for you. Let your mind go as you are soothed with long, flowing massage strokes. This massage uses light to medium pressure to induce the parasympathetic nervous system, which tells your body to RELAX!

Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage is very beneficial. It helps you relax and deal with all the changes your body is going through. It can help with low back pain, neck and shoulder pain and hip pain. Sciatica, carpel tunnel syndrome, leg cramping, and swelling of the hands and feet are all conditions that are frequently caused by pregnancy and can be relieved with massage therapy. There are situations where massage should not be used during pregnancy, such as: high risk pregnancies or if you are in your first trimester. If you have any questions about whether you should receive massage or not, please call Carmel Massage & Wellness or consult your physician.

Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy®(PDMT) is a form of therapeutic massage that was started by Therese Pfrimmer. This massage is done quite deeply to work the muscles at a celluar level.

When muscles are injured the tissue tightens up. This tightening of tissue restricts the movement of blood and lymph in the muscle tissue. The muscle actually starts to become dried out and rigid due to the lack of circulation of fluids. Nerves become entrapped in this contracted tissue. This causes pain and tenderness in the injured area.

PDMT address this by using cross-fiber friction techniques to loosen muscle tissue. The work is quite deep and is used break up adhesions in the muscles at the celluar level. This allows lymph and blood to flow freely around the cells giving them the nutrients they need to repair and heal themselves.

Pfrimmer deep muscle therapy ® can be used to treat a whole host of common ailments.

    * headaches
    * arthritis
    * carpal tunnel syndrome
    * heart problems
    * constipation
    * chronic pain
    * neck pain
    * back pain
    * paralysis
    * sciatic nerve pain
    * circulatory problems
    * tendinitis
    * bursitis 

Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy ® is a deep tissue massage that uses cross-fiber strokes to loosen all the layers of muscles tissue. It is different from Swedish massage based deep tissue therapy because the therapist's goal is not to push blood and lymph through the tissue towards the heart. The therapist's goal is to encourage the circulation of blood and lymph freely in the muscle tissue.

Though the therapy is quite deep it's doesn't have the painful reputation as Rolfing.
