There are many different types of massage, including these common types:
- Swedish massage. This is a gentle form of massage that uses long strokes, kneading, deep circular movements, vibration and tapping. It helps you feel relaxed and energized.
- Deep massage. This massage technique uses slower, more-forceful strokes to target the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It’s commonly used to help with muscle damage from injuries.
- Sports massage. This is similar to Swedish massage, but it’s geared toward people involved in sport activities to help prevent or treat injuries.
- Trigger point massage. This massage focuses on areas of tight muscle fibers that can form in your muscles after injuries or overuse.

My massage career started in 1996 after graduation from Health Enrichment Center in Lapeer, MI. From there, I have worked at spa’s and chiropractic offices over the years gaining knowledge and growing professionally as a licensed massage therapist. They say if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life! I thank God for blessing me for giving me a heart of compassion and empathy for those who are in pain physically and mentally.
