AMY PRIOR MASSAGE THERAPY

I am a nationally certified massage therapist, certified by the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCTMB). I offer deep tissue massage therapy in the Ann Arbor, MI area. If you experience lots of stress and anxiety, chronic pain issues, muscle soreness, throbbing tension headaches, low back/neck/shoulder/hip pain, postural imbalances, or reduced range of motion, I can help!

Work situations, posture, and sleep positions are some of the things that can contribute to muscular imbalance leading to chronic pain. I focus on neuromuscular massage therapy and myofascial massage therapy. I work with you to determine your pain issues and attack areas of pain and tension by loosening the muscle and fascia and bringing you better muscular health and balance.

I also practice Swedish relaxation massage therapy for those of you who don't want deep tissue massage.

I believe that good massage therapy combined with chiropractic or physical therapy treatments can help maintain proper body alignment and keep you in better health than just one or the other alone. It's because the body's skeletal system and musculature are influenced by each other. If you adjust the body's structure, but not the tight muscles around it, then those muscles will pull the spine out of alignment again.

My clients are my top priority. I work with you to help you get rid of your pain. My primary goal is to attack trigger points--tight areas in muscles that cause pain and may refer pain to other areas of the body--and keep the pain from coming back.
