Text Box: What is Massage Therapy?
 
Massage therapy is the physical manipulation of soft tissue, connective tissue, and ligaments and the balancing of body energetics for the purpose of maintaining good health and physical condition.  It increases body awareness, corrects system imbalances, assists in relaxation, reduces stress, increases vitality and promotes a sense of well-being. The Massage Therapy profession is being discovered at a rapid pace in today’s society by a wide range of fields.  Many of the medical, rehabilitation and fitness professions are discovering the benefits of massage therapy, thus creating rewarding opportunities for licensed massage therapist.  At the River Valley School of Massage, we believe that professionally skilled therapists are the key to providing a stress free, relaxing environment for the world to enjoy.
