Message By Massage, Newington

With its high-energy throws and snarling taunts, televised wrestling definitely helps many participants let off steam. But in-between bouts, many wrestlers duck backstage to try another method of tension release: a massage with a licensed therapist. Olive walls and flickering candles set a calming scene inside the treatment room at Healthtrax Fitness & Wellness. There, aches are addressed with a variety of techniques and tools, including smooth, warm stones for hot-stone massages or cathartic rounds of tiddlywinks.
