- Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Pain
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome appears as tingling, weakness, or numbness in your hand as the result of pressure upon the median nerve in your wrist. Bodywork services we provide to alleviate pain from Carpel Tunnel Syndrome include stretching, and range of motion exercises.
- Fibromyalgia
Many Southern Californians diagnosed with Fibromyalgia find therapeutic massage to be a valuable tool in reducing the pain caused by this common, yet disruptive musculoskeletal condition. Therapeutic massage works well with this condition, as it manipulates both the muscles and soft tissues, which lessens deep muscle pain. In addition, therapeutic massage can help relieve particularly tender areas to subdue muscle spasms, and loosen tense muscles.
- Foot Pain
Many people consider the arch muscle in the foot to be one of the hardest working muscles in the body. The feet do endure a great deal of stress every day, so it is not surprising that so many people in Southern California seek massage therapy for recurring or chronic foot pain. Massaging the feet (particularly the arch and trigger points) helps promotion circulation, all the while mitigating pain from existing conditions such as sore Achilles tendons, and Plantar Fasciitis.
- Headaches
Countless Southern Californians experience headaches either rarely, occasionally, or frequently. Fortunately, for many sufferers, relief has come by way of Massage and Bodywork Therapy Services by Nancy. Massage therapy for those who suffer from frequent headaches is a proactive approach to reducing future headaches, while the release of pressure in the shoulders, neck and head often helps those with tension headaches.

- Post-Surgical Pain
There is a reason so many Southern Californians begin massage therapy after surgery. Simply put, it helps promote healing. Massage therapy succeeds in helping move blood and nutrients to areas where soft tissue must be repaired. In addition, because massage therapy promotes circulation, the body is able to pump more oxygen, thus leading to a faster recovery time.
