What We Do
For over 20 years local tri-athletes, post-op patients and individuals suffering from chronic pain have been coming to IMTC for effective treatment and pain relief.
We work in affiliation with orthopedic surgeons, cardiologists, primary care physicians, chiropractors and physical therapists on a regular basis to ensure our clients get the best possible care available to them and provide optimal recovery time. Ours is a holistic medical practice. Each patient’s therapy is tracked with progress notes and objective findings kept on file.
Our specialties include swedish, deep tissue, myofascial, trigger point, prenatal, hot stone, sports massage, and injury rehabilitation. In addition to our massage services, our supplemental treatments include gua sha, moist & infrared heat, kinesiotaping and ice therapy.
Not sure which massage you need? Tell us any issues, pain or symptoms you are experiencing, such as lower back pain, neck strain or IT band tightness, and our therapists will create a specialized treatment plan to address your needs.
