Benefits of Massage Therapy are as individual as you are. Massage is a wonderful tool to help you reach a higher degree of wellness.

 

As a certified Massage Therapist, I specialize in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork. By Manipulating muscle tissue to release spasms, hyper contractions, and stress, normal muscle tone can usually be restored.


During a treatment session great care is taken to ensure your comfort. Some treatment can be done while fully dressed, if you feel more comfortable. Otherwise the body is never fully exposed. You will be draped with sheets and only the area being worked is uncovered.

There are different techniques used to address different areas of concern. Highest quality oils will be used for all techniques. No two massage sessions are exactly alike, as your needs will vary from day to day. Your medical history is taken before treatment is done to be sure there are no contraindications.

Massage is a wonderful tool to help you reach a higher degree of wellness, and works well with other health modalities. Most that have tried massage agree that this is one of the nicest things that you can do for yourself. My clients range in age from 2 to 89, and come in all shapes and sizes and have various needs. My clients come for massages, but also learn to take better care of their bodies.


Many of my clients have some degree of fibromyalgia (FMS). People with FMS usually ache all over, sleep poorly, are stiff on walking and are tired all day. They are prone to headaches, memory and concentration problems, dizziness, numbness and tingling, itching, fluid retention, crampy abdominal or pelvic pain and diarrhea.
 
Testimonial~
"I can't say enough good about Patty Tharp.  I refer her to everyone I meet who has any type of muscular or joint pain.  She is excellent.  Once I started seeing her for my sciatic nerve damage, I was able to substantially reduce the pain medications and muscle relaxers I was taking.  I have been to many massage therapists and Patty is by far the best ever."
