What Is Medical Massage?

Medical massage is typically used to treat specific musculoskeletal conditions through focused manual therapy. It’s often applied in rehabilitation, pain management, or injury recovery.

It’s commonly used to relieve:

  • Chronic muscle tension
  • Injury-related pain
  • Postural dysfunction
  • Repetitive strain conditions

But here’s the truth—not all “medical massage” lives up to the name. Many sessions rely on generic techniques that only manage symptoms, not the root cause.

Why My Work is Different

What I offer isn’t massage therapy—it’s a more advanced, results-driven approach to resolving pain at the source.

I use the Coaching The Body® method: a powerful system that combines manual trigger point therapy, functional movement assessment, neuromuscular re-education, and nervous system downregulation.

This is targeted bodywork backed by modern pain science—not spa massage or guesswork.  You can think of it as "Medical Massage Plus".

You’ll receive:

  • A precise analysis of your pain referral patterns
  • Treatment of underlying muscular dysfunction
  • Movement-based techniques to restore function and prevent recurrence

This work is ideal for clients who’ve tried everything else—and are ready for lasting results.

How CTB® Bodywork Compares to Traditional Medical Massage

Traditional medical massage often uses general techniques focused on the area of pain.

But pain is deceptive—it’s often referred from a different muscle entirely.

With CTB®, we:

  • Identify the neuromuscular source of your pain
  • Treat the entire pain referral chain
  • Use movement and feedback to ensure real change
  • Empower you with self-care tools to keep progressing

Client Success Stories

IronMan Champion

When I first came to Doug, I could not move my left shoulder without pain and could not swim.  With his help I got out of pain, was able to continue training, and not only finished the Mont-Tremblant IronMan, I won!  I could not have done it without him!
