WHY Northwest Medical Massage?
Most think of massage as an experience on a cruise ship or at a day spa. Our knowledge is utilized to develop an approach to your problem to alleviate YOUR pain. Our singular focus is your pain relief.
WHO is it for?
Are you in pain? Do you have neck pain, pain in the hip while walking, pain in the legs? If you feel you have tried everything and don’t feel like you got any better, we can help.
HOW to stay pain free
If you have have been in a car accident or fell off a ladder, you likely know why you hurt. However, many people don’t know why exactly they hurt. For many of us, daily habits, how we sleep and how we age can play a role in our pain. Once we get you feeling better, our maintenance massage will help keep you feeling better.

THE VALUE OF SMRT THERAPY
We use, almost exclusively, SMRT (Spontaneous Muscle Release Technique) in our practice to treat client issues. But what is SMRT? The essential idea is to shorten the muscle so it can relax. The trick is for the therapist shorten it for you. If the muscle is shortened because you contracted it, then SMRT can’t work. If you tense to help the therapist hold the joint into a specific position, SMRT can’t work. The beauty of this technique is that you need to do nothing but relax. You don’t even have to be mentally present while we work. You need only to sleep, let the mind wander or meditate. In fact, letting go will only enhance the effectiveness of the work.
Most of the techniques cause little to no discomfort. There are a few exceptions depending on the issue being addressed, but pain is very rare for SMRT. For the few more intense techniques, we can usually work around it till you are ready.
It is very common for the muscles to continue to release for 24 to 48 hours after the initial work. Many clients report the effects of SMRT to last days, weeks or longer depending on the issue being addressed.
