I believe that massage therapy is a great way to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and ease pain. I am passionate about helping people feel their best and reach their Wellness goals.

spinal reflex therapist, deep tissue and trigger point therapy
CLAYTON TUNE
Pain—even the smallest amounts—can greatly alter one’s life. Unfortunately, in many cases, we condition ourselves to keep going and ignore what troubles us. The long term results can often lead to damaging results, not least of which is immense frustration. I am a certified Massage Therapist and have been practicing since 2017, when I developed a passion for helping people to not only manage their pain but improve their mobile and/or mental abilities. I studied at Northern Virginia Community College, and have practiced massage therapy in spa, sport, and clinical settings. Utilizing the benefits of soft tissue manipulation, my hope and interest is to help my clients restore a healthy range of motion or posture and manage, if not eliminate, the current pain they struggle with. This includes the pain of mental stress and anxiety, prevalent in our busy Northern VA area. I specialize in Swedish Relaxation, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, and Hot Stone Massage, and Spinal Reflex Therapy (SRT) to address the spondylogenic reflex (a reflex from the spine). I can also personalize your treatment to your individual needs.

Medical Massage
Medical massage (neuromuscular manipulation) is a specific healing method. It requires expert knowledge and extensive training in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, pathology and client assessment. The practitioner must have critical thinking skills to make connections between different symptoms and causes. This is where spa massage and medical massage differ.
A spa massage (usually deep tissue or Swedish) is perfect for maintaining good health. It affects circulation, lymph system, endocrine system, musculoskeletal system, integumentary system and gastrointestinal system. Regular massages keep all of those systems in good working order.
When do we need medical massage? When muscle, joint and postural imbalance happens simultaneously. These conditions create chronic pain in the body, which over time leads to serious soft tissue damages. A well-trained medical massage therapist is able to identify and correct not just the postural misalignment but also the muscle imbalance, which usually is the cause of the conditions.
The spa therapist only treats the symptoms and gives the client a temporary relief from pain. A medical massage practitioner identifies the real cause of the chronic pain and treats the cause itself instead of the symptoms. The result of medical massage is a permanent pain free life.
