I had an excellent experience during my first session at Athletic Recovery Services. Josh was the massage therapist I worked with during this session and I cannot stress enough how different and individualized his approach was. He started by getting a detailed history of what I was working through and then tailored the entire session to meet my individual needs. I had been going to a chiropractor to get additional relief for a herniated disc I had last year. They had been addressing the structural aspect but I needed some additional work for the musculoskeletal and nerves in the area. This was especially true of the stiffness in my traps, that he recognized almost immediately. He worked all of the muscles and nerves in my upper back and it immediately helped with stress and lack of mobility in the area. He recorded stretches and strength training lifts on my phone so I could continue my recovery at home. I was sore the next day, but I could already feel major relief from the work we completed during our session. Two days after, the soreness from the session was gone, but I had a lot more mobility and almost no pain from the injury. If you are on the fence or in need of a massage therapist for any reason, I would not hesitate and just schedule a session. I will be back to continue my recovery and look forward to the next session.
