See What Patients Say! Massage
under the skillful fingers of Laura Franks moves from the merely relaxing
to the truly therapeutic healing of cranky muscles. When I first went
to Laura, three years ago, I was seeking relaxation and relief from the
stiffness of a middle age body. I found that plus more. I did not know
that the kind of deep muscle therapy that Laura provides was available.
She nursed my frozen shoulder and restored a fuller range of motion than
I had previously been able to achieve even with yoga and regular chiropractic
care. Because my muscles are less bound with knots and the toxins of daily
life, I am able to move freer and more easily. My posture has changed;
I stand more erectly and am more aware of how I use my body and how I
move. This increased awareness helps me to use my body in a more user-friendly
way and to work with it instead of against it. I watch other people my
age, especially women, with their feet turned out and know that without
Laura's touch, I also would be walking like a duck because of tight hamstring
muscles. These are some of the outward changes and benefits I have experienced.
What are not as apparent, but every bit as important, are the cellular
benefits: increased blood flow, lymphatic discharge, the clearing of toxins,
increased energy. Because of Laura's healing touch my stiff, tightness
prone, short fiber muscles are becoming more flexible and longer. I feel
as if my muscles have finally grown up and caught up with the rest of
me. Does my body need Laura's healing touch? Like a fish needs the water!
“I
have had chronic back, neck and hip pain for over 2 1/2 years. While my
chiropractor was a definite help and blessing, a friend told me about
Laura and I called to schedule an appointment. She has helped me so much
that my chiropractor was very impressed with the difference it made. I
wish I had known about her 2 1/2 years ago! She was the part of the puzzle
that was missing from my recovery. I would highly recommend her to anyone,
and I have done just that! I tell everyone that mentions they have pains
to call Laura! Even if you are seeing a chiropractor or physician, she
is an important part of the healing process. I am well on my way to a
better, healthy life! I am able to enjoy walks with my family again!”
“Before
seeing Laura, my back was a mess. This was due to many years of stress
and sports injuries. I was experiencing muscle spasms in my lower back
and I could not pull my shoulders back. I could not stretch my back without
it cramping up on me. In addition, I was in pain most days and sitting
at work did not help. After only a few sessions with Laura, my back stopped
cramping and having spasms. I was able to stretch my back without the
fear of having pain. In addition, I am now able to pull my shoulders back.
My posture has improved because the muscles in my back, shoulders, and
neck are loosened up. I could not imagine life without massage therapy
and recommend it to everyone.” |
