Massage Clinics
A massage clinic is a facility that offers a variety of massage treatments depending on the type of service that the client needs or wants. (Source: Wikipedia) The most cited reasons for introducing massage as therapy have been client demand and perceived clinical effectiveness. Clients may seek massage for medical benefit or for relaxation purposes, and there is a wide range of massage treatment available to meet these distinct needs. Massage therapy that aims to improve physical health typically differs in duration and technique from massage that is intended to simply relax or rejuvenate clients. The training background of those who perform the two types of massage therapy differs as well. Massage therapists can specialize in over 80 different types of massage, called modalities. Massage, deep tissue massage, reflexology, acupressure, sports massage, and neuromuscular massage are just a few of the many approaches to massage therapy. (Source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics)
