Medical Massage

Massage Therapy at ANSC focuses on the whole person – body, mind and spirit, and how pain or an illness impacts well-being on all of these levels.

Our massage therapist, Courtney Blaze, LMT is nationally certified and CT Licensed. A graduate of the CT Center for Massage Therapy, she provides western and Swedish massage with an emphasis on pain relief. Courtney also provides deep tissue massage, range of motion therapy, Hot Stone, and Energy Work.

The focus of Medical Massage Therapy is to alleviate chronic pain experienced by those who suffer from a disorder or injury involving the joints, muscles, or nerves. It is sometimes defined as medically necessary massage and is generally practiced with a specific goal of improving overall health.

Medical massage is generally not a full-body treatment, focusing only on specific areas where pain occurs. It is an essential part of the healing process for those who have experienced injuries, accidents or surgeries.
