MASSAGE THERAPY

We Offer Full Body Massage Therapy

Massage is a great way to unwind the physical and mental daily stresses of your life.

We offer general and relaxing full body massage. We also offer very specific, deeper massage. Techniques we use include myofascial release, cross-tissue, deep transverse friction, skin rolling, compression, effleurage (long relaxing strokes) and petrissage (kneading).

We also offer on-site chair massage for work or special functions. Call for more information and pricing.

The office of IPT & C is always a welcoming, friendly place. I feel like my therapy begins as soon as I open the door. There is a calm, peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Beth and Lisa are two of the nicest people you could hope to meet.

Integrated Physical Therapy has been treating my whole family for years.  DJ is masterful at identifying and healing body aches/sprains using hands-on, direct contact that is gentle, relaxing and effective. She genuinely cares for her clients, listens attentively, and offers suggestions for at-home exercises or interventions that support her work.  The entire office staff provides a warm, comfortable and helpful atmosphere.  I am personally blessed to have IPT keep my family healthy and active.
