Our Services: A Comprehensive Approach to Wellness

We offer a wide array of massage and bodywork services designed to meet the unique needs of each client. Our approach is deeply rooted in the belief that healing stems from addressing the whole person - mind, body, and spirit.

• Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)/Trigger Point Therapy: NMT, also known as trigger point therapy, focuses on releasing tension in specific muscle knots or trigger points that can cause pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion. This therapy is highly effective in treating chronic muscle pain, headaches, and postural issues.

• Sports-Specific Massage: We cater to athletes of all levels by providing targeted massage techniques that enhance performance, prevent injuries, and aid in recovery. Our sports-specific massage incorporates stretches and techniques designed to address the unique demands and muscle stresses of various sports.

• Deep Tissue Massage: Ideal for individuals experiencing chronic muscle tension, pain, or adhesions, deep tissue massage focuses on releasing deeper layers of muscle tissue. This therapy can effectively alleviate chronic pain, improve posture, and increase flexibility.

• Orthopedic Massage: This specialized massage therapy addresses musculoskeletal imbalances and pain. Using a combination of manual techniques, pressure points, and stretches, orthopedic massage focuses on improving joint mobility, reducing muscle spasms, and restoring proper alignment.

• Pregnancy Massage: We understand the unique physiological changes that occur during pregnancy. Our pre- and post-natal massage sessions are specifically tailored to address the needs of expectant mothers, promoting relaxation, reducing swelling, easing back pain, and preparing the body for labor.

• Stretch Therapy: Through active isolated stretching techniques, stretch therapy aims to increase flexibility, improve range of motion, and alleviate muscle tightness and pain. This therapy utilizes gentle, sustained stretches that allow muscles to lengthen and improve function.

• Chair Massage: Offering a convenient and accessible form of massage, chair massage is a popular choice for corporate events, wellness programs, and anyone seeking a quick but effective stress reliever.

We invite you to experience the transformative power of holistic massage therapy at Goldhammer Massage & Bodywork. We are dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and effective environment for your healing journey.

Orthopedic Assessment: Identifying the Source of Pain

A thorough orthopedic assessment is the cornerstone of our approach. We believe in understanding the biomechanics of each individual - their posture, range of motion, and muscle imbalances. This assessment helps us identify the root cause of pain and tailor a treatment plan that addresses the specific needs of each client. During the assessment, we will evaluate your posture, range of motion in your major joints, and muscle function. We may also use specialized techniques to identify areas of restriction or dysfunction. Based on our findings, we will develop a personalized treatment plan that may incorporate a combination of massage techniques, stretching exercises, and recommendations for lifestyle modifications.
