Medical Massage

Medical massage in Billings, MT is for people who know what’s going on (or have been told what’s going on) and want a focused plan, not a generic full-body routine. If you’re dealing with a specific injury, post-surgical stiffness, tendon irritation, nerve-style symptoms, or a chronic pain pattern under a care plan, this is the right lane.

• Injury recovery and return-to-activity support

• Post-procedure stiffness and scar mobility (with clearance)

• Chronic pain patterns with clear goals and tracking

Medical massage isn’t a “style.” It’s a goal-based session built around one primary target. We prioritize tissue and movement restriction, apply the proper hands-on techniques, and confirm you’re moving better when you get off the table. The goal is simple: fewer limitations, better function, and a body that’s easier to use day to day.

This is not a medical diagnosis or a replacement for medical care. It’s focused soft-tissue work designed to support recovery and function within appropriate guidelines.

Athletes recovering from sports injuries • Office workers with chronic neck and shoulder tension • Post-surgical patients cleared for massage therapy • Individuals with diagnosed soft-tissue restrictions • Anyone dealing with persistent pain that hasn’t responded to other treatments • Medical massage works best when you have a clear goal, a specific condition to address, and the commitment to follow through with recommended treatment. This is clinical bodywork, focused, purposeful, and results-driven.

We provide focused soft-tissue therapy for diagnosed conditions including plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff tendinitis, TMJ dysfunction, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other specific musculoskeletal issues. Each session targets the primary restriction with precise hands-on techniques to improve range of motion, reduce pain, and restore function. Whether you’ve been diagnosed by a physician, physical therapist, or chiropractor, we work within your treatment plan to support your recovery goals.

For athletes and active adults recovering from sports injuries, strains, or overuse conditions. We address lingering restrictions from hamstring pulls, shoulder impingement, IT band syndrome, and other athletic injuries that aren’t healing as quickly as expected. Treatment focuses on breaking up scar tissue, restoring tissue mobility, and supporting your return to training or competition.

Effective for recovery after knee replacements, shoulder surgeries, orthopedic procedures, or any surgery that has left you feeling stiff, bound down, or unable to move freely. Once you have medical clearance for massage (typically 6-8 weeks post-op), we use specialized techniques to improve scar tissue mobility, reduce adhesions, and restore range of motion in the affected area. Many clients report significant improvement in that “stuck” feeling after just a few sessions.

For individuals dealing with persistent low back pain, sciatica, fibromyalgia, chronic neck tension, or other long-term pain conditions. We work with you to identify pain triggers, reduce muscle guarding, and create lasting changes in tissue tension. This is not a quick-fix approach—chronic conditions require consistent work, clear goals, and tracking progress over time. Many clients use medical massage as part of a broader pain management plan that may include chiropractic care, physical therapy, or physician-directed treatment.

Targeted treatment for nerve-related symptoms including carpal tunnel syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome, piriformis syndrome, and other nerve compression issues causing numbness, tingling, or radiating pain. We use specialized techniques to reduce pressure on affected nerves, improve circulation to compressed areas, and address the muscular restrictions contributing to your symptoms. This work is precise, methodical, and designed to complement any medical treatment you’re already receiving.

While we don’t bill insurance directly, many clients use their HSA (Health Savings Account) or FSA (Flexible Spending Account) to pay for medical massage therapy. We provide detailed receipts with appropriate billing codes that you can submit for potential reimbursement. Some insurance plans cover massage therapy when prescribed by a physician—check with your provider for specific coverage details.
