My name is Marti Hefton. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist and feel fortunate to be part of Dr. Demith's office. I believe massage therapy is a complementary therapy to chiropractic care. My massage treatments consist of both deep tissues and Swedish techniques... I also offer prenatal, sports, myofascial release and trigger point therapy. I'm dedicated to helping Dr. Demith's patients achieve their wellness goal. I look forward to starting a therapy session with you. ~ Marti
My name is Michelle Leiman. I have been practicing massage
therapy since 1993. I have studied modalities such as Hawaiian Lomi lomi, Strauts,
Swedish massage, & Traditional massage & Reflexology, & cranial sacral therapy among others. Dr Demiths holistic approach to healing neck and back pain. Your well being is our goal, so come in to see us. ~ Michelle
My name is Yvette Glinksi. I graduated August of 97 from the
Desert Institute of the Healing Arts Massage Program and have practicing since.
I specialize in Swedish deep tissue and trigger point therapy. I also have
certifications
in CranioSacral. Thai massage ~ I love the Healing aspect of my job. I believe
that therapeutic massage and chiropractic treatment combined together creates a
powerful combination of benefits. Together they facilitate the natural healing
process. Chiropractic care addresses misalignment of the bones of the spine
while massage therapy addresses the muscles attached to the bones that could be
pulling the bones out of alignment. Working with Dr Demith, I am able to assist
with restoring balance to the spine which maintains your health and wellness.
What I enjoy MOST is seeing the change in Dr Demith’s patient’s demeanor when they arrive compared to when they leave. They are more relaxed and centered. ~ Yvette
Chronic headaches are a distressing fact of life for millions of people. The need to continually cop with pain often diminishes the quality of a person' s life at work and home. With its ability to relieve muscle tension, promote healing of injuries, and reduce stress, therapeutic massage can be a powerful ally in your battle against chronic headaches.
What type of headache do you have?
- Tension Headaches
- Migraine headaches
- Cluster headaches
- Headaches due to neck injury
- Other types of headaches.
How can massage help?
Massage to the neck and head can relieve headaches by releasing tight, shortened muscles, trigger points, and fascia (connective tissue surrounding muscles and other structures). When muscles and fascia relax and become more pliable, circulation improves. This helps eliminate irritating waste products and brings oxygen and healing nutrients to tissues.
If your headache is due to an injury, massage therapy can promote healing and make restrictive scar tissue more pliable in the muscles and ligaments of the neck. If posture is a factor, massage can help by increasing your awareness of tension patterns that affect your posture so that you can take steps to improve it.
For migraines, massage may be a powerful preventative measure. It can help reduce accumulated physical and mental stress and, over time, reduce the frequency and intensity of episodes.
