Massage therapy for pain, injuries and stress in Troy, Michigan
Happy 2019 everyone! As I sit here writing this from the comfort of my sofa while Michigan battles its way through the frozen tundra of negative temperatures and wind chills up to -30F, only to get ready for the heat wave this weekend of 40’s and 50’s….well, at least we keep it interesting. If you…
While many people think of massage as just a feel-good sort of luxury, (although if you’ve visited Michigan Massage and Wellness before you know we don’t do ‘luxury’ as much as we do ‘necessity’ work) there are actually numerous health benefits, one of the many being post-workout recovery.

Do you have a nagging pain in your back? Does that nagging pain shoot down the back of your leg? You may be able to thank (or curse) your sciatic nerve for that. The sciatic nerve is the largest single nerve in the body, running from each side of the low spine through the buttock…
Fascial Stretch Therapy, Level 2 recap WOW. What a week! Well, I was actually gone 10 days, out of the office for a whopping 14, but while I’m still riding the FST wave, I have to give a recap of my level 2 Fascial Stretch Therapy training that I just completed. I also want to…
Shoulders…. One of the most complex parts of the body. They can lift you up, but they can also drag you down if they’re not functioning properly and unfortunately, most of us have some kind of shoulder problem (and some of us may not even know it!). I have seen countless clients at Michigan Massage…
If I had a dollar every time someone said that massage is a luxury, I’d have a lot of dollars. (More dollars means more trainings I can go and take!) Sure, going to a fancy day spa where you are walking around in plush robes sipping on cucumber water (or champagne if you want to…
