About Massage Massage is one of the oldest healing arts: Chinese records dating back 3,000 years document its use; the ancient Hindus, Persians and Egyptians applied forms of massage for many ailments; and Hippocrates wrote papers recommending the use of rubbing and friction for joint and circulatory problems. Today, the benefits of massage are varied and far-reaching. As an accepted part of many physical rehabilitation programs, massage therapy has also proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, bursitis, fatigue, high blood pressure, diabetes, immunity suppression, infertility, smoking cessation, depression, and more. And, as many millions will attest, massage also helps relieve the stress and tension of everyday living that can lead to disease and illness. |

Relax and De-Stress
Sometimes, we all need to stop, take a breath and relax - lie back, put the cell phone down, tune out the rest of the world and let all the tensions flow away. Instant Amnesia is a meditative state somewhere between sleep and consciousness, a place where stress and tension become non-existent! Every client is unique, so each session is specifically tailored to meet your needs.

| Contraindications to Massage: Massage is non-invasive, relaxing and natural. It is therefore generally considered a safe treatment for most people. However, there are some contraindications. Massage is not a good idea if you have a fever, a contagious or infectious disease, including any cold or flu (No matter how mild it may seem), inflammation, osteoporosis and certain other medical conditions. If you suffer from any of the following conditions, massage can only take place once it has been approved before your session in writing by your Physician: cardio-vascular conditions (thrombosis, phlebitis, hypertension, heart conditions), Any condition already being treated by a medical practitioner, edema, psoriasis or eczema, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, cancer, nervous or psychotic conditions, heart problems, angina, those with pacemakers, epilepsy, diabetes, bell's palsy, trapped or pinched nerves, gynecological infections. Does a contraindication mean that treatment cannot take place? Not always. In fact, massage can be very therapeutic for many medical conditions. However, in the above cases it is best to have advice from your physician. Massage therapists, unless they are also qualified doctors, may not, under law, attempt to diagnose a condition. Please Note: Massage, bodywork and somatic therapies specifically exclude diagnosis, prescription, manipulation or adjustments of the human skeletal structure, or any other service, procedure or therapy which requires a license to practice orthopedics, physical therapy, podiatry, chiropractic, osteopathy, psychotherapy, acupuncture, or any other profession or branch of medicine. If you have any questions please feel free to ask us.
