October 21 – 27 is the 22^nd annual National Massage Therapy Awareness Week®. The American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) describes this week as an opportunity to promote the health benefits of massage.

Massage therapy provides many benefits to your health:

• Relaxes muscle tension and relieves muscle spasms
• Improves mobility of joints and speeds healing from injuries
• Promotes general relaxation and relieves stress
• Enhances restful sleep
• Increases energy, vitality and mental alertness
• Enhances feeling of overall well-being
• Improves posture and coordination

Chelsea and Dexter Wellness Centers offer 30-, 60- and 90-minute massage services to members and non-members. Our licensed massage therapists perform a personal consultation at the beginning of your session to customize the massage to meet your needs. The therapists’ comprehensive training covers a variety of massage styles and techniques including, but not limited to: Swedish massage (relaxation) and Myofascial (deep tissue), Neuromuscular, Lymphatic drainage and Sports massage. Hot stone therapy is also available.
