Massage in Norristown

Owner and founder Gilda Smith specializes in helping clients to heal through massage therapy by finding mental and physical balance. She also leads a team of other experienced therapists who specialize in a number of modalities including prenatal, sports, and myofascial therapy. Exhale's staff of massage therapists, with more than 10 years of experience, use their expertise to calm clients' tense sinews by incorporating a unique blend of various modalities in their massage techniques.

Licensed massage therapist Erica Johnson makes her viewpoint clear in the name of her practice: Massage Is The Remedy. The somewhat vague and overarching nature of this statement hints at Johnson’s ability to heal a wide array of pains and injuries with her focused bodywork techniques. Guided by the gentle strokes of her Swedish massage or the firm pressures of her deep-tissue massage, sore muscles and overworked minds take a healing vacation from their daily duties. The nationally certified therapist also plies muscles with specialty modalities such as trigger-point therapy, in which she applies focused pressure to tender areas, and sports therapy, in which she swings a heated baseball bat at knots of tension.

A graduate of the Pennsylvania School of Muscle Therapy, owner and operator Lauren Nelson leads a team of three other muscle therapists, Amy, Brendan, and Linda, as they turn down tension levels and subdue stress at Touch of Health Massage Therapy. Therapeutic, sports, myofascial, Swedish, reiki, shiatsu, and hot-stone massages are all key players in the team's quest to relax the body and relieve tension by quieting tight muscle bands and their incessant rock 'n' roll music. Beyond using massage to treat maladies ranging from fibromyalgia and arthritis to sports injuries and carpal tunnel syndrome, Lauren also completed a muscle-therapy course at Hofstra University with a focus on oncology, allowing her to address the particular therapeutic needs of clients with cancer.
