Massage Therapy

Massages are more than just relaxing. In the right hands, they are an important therapy that can relieve a variety of medical conditions such as stress, pain and compromised joints.

At the Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute, we offer the very best in clinical massage therapies. Depending on your needs, we are body detectives who use touch to improve everything from how you sleep to how you sit in a chair or how you move. Our techniques can increase flexibility for elite-level athletes or reduce stress for 9-to-5 desk workers.

In addition, our integrative medicine philosophy means we collaborate with other providers to treat the whole person, and not just one condition.
