Answers:
Hi Aural, it very good that you instead of resorting to drugs and medication, want to get massage treatment.
I would recommend a good alternative to try is remedial massage therapy. Remedial massage is a holistic treatment; that is, a treatment for the whole of the body, as well as the area being treated.
Remedial massage uses several specialized skills to locate and repair damage and speed up the body’s repair mechanism. A professional remedial massage therapist has to draw on his knowledge of anatomy, physiology, related pathology and the techniques of Swedish massage, heat and cold therapies, Kinesthetics and many other related fields for a complete treatment.
Also, the professional massage therapist will use information about your lifestyle, being your food diet, exercise regime, allergies, medical history, etc. for diagnosis.
