Therapeutic Massage

ONE Holistic Wellness offers Therapeutic Massage, including Connective Tissue Massage, Neuromuscular Massage and Swedish Massage to St. Cloud, MN and surrounding areas provided by Anne Brady, Massage Therapist.

Connective Tissue Massage (CTM)
Connective Tissue Massage (CTM) is a body work modality that returns the fascia (lies between the skin and the muscle) to a sol (soft, fluid) state, allowing an increase in range of motion and detoxification of the body, and decreasing pain, stiffness and limitations in movement, by providing stretching to the connective tissue..

Neuromuscular Massage
Neuromuscular is a “deep tissue” modality that works the trigger points and spasms out of the muscles through direct pressure into the area of tightness. This allows fresh blood and oxygen to flood the area removing toxins that cause spasming, and providing nutrients to the tissue.

Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is method of gentle kneading and long gliding strokes to create a deepened state of relaxation and peace in the body.

Benefits of Massage
Let’s face it, life is stressful. We all face challenges – physical, mental and emotional, which take their toll on our body. Massage helps to reconnect us to ourselves – bring us back into our physical experience that daily life so abruptly yanks us out of. The kids need to be run five different directions all at the same time, Mom’s one place, Dad another. Work schedules demand more than our bodies and minds can possibly give. It’s extra time on project, another business trip, more mandatory overtime. And, that doesn’t even begin to allow time for friends and other family members, hobbies, or extra curriculars. We all push too hard, only to end up dealing with stiff necks, sore backs and aching shoulders, not to mention fatigue, illness, depression, and so on. Our bodies need to be cared for. Massage helps us recover from the daily grind, and rejuvenate!

A note from Anne Brady
I’ve been a massage therapist for 18 years. In that time, I’ve studied neuromuscular, connective tissue massage, myofacial release, healing touch, cranial sacral, lymph drainage therapy, Reiki and other modalities. I am a member of the American Massage Therapy Association. My desire as a body worker is to combine these modalities into a therapeutic experience that allows my clients an opportunity for healing their body in an environment that also supports them in an energetic aspect as well.
