The staff at Supreme Transformation don’t look at themselves as mere massage therapists—they consider themselves holistic healers. That’s because they believe therapeutic massage can do a lot more than simply relieve stress and unkink a neck ravaged by sitting in the front row of movie theaters. For starters, it can effectively help soft-tissue injuries, improve range of motion, boost circulation, and even diminish chronic pain. And because they understand that no two bodies are the same, they make sure no two treatments are, either. To that end, the staff here pull from a wheelhouse stocked with modalities ranging from Swedish to trigger point therapy.
