Sometimes more than massage is required to relax tense muscles and ease joint stiffness. An Orthotherapist is trained in Swedish massage and kinesitherapy techniques- gentle stretching and joint mobilization- and is able to bring an added dimension to the release of tension. The stretching and mobilizations that are performed are always within your range of comfort and never beyond. Orthotherapy may be combined with other techniques, including hydrotherapy, cataplasm, clay, mud and essential oil body wraps, as well as with vibration and elongation (gentle traction).

Orthotherapy is beneficial on its own or as a complement to other health care services. As part of a comprehensive treatment program, it will maximize the benefits of all therapies involved. Orthotherapists welcome the opportunity to work with other professionals in easing chronic problems, and can help with a speedy recovery from injury or surgery.

Massage has both therapeutic and relaxation purposes. It acts directly on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems, giving a sense of well-being. It also aids the rehabilitation of muscle injuries through the manipulation of muscle, tendons, ligaments, connective tissues and joints.
