TESTIMONIALS
“Have gone here a few times now after they re-opened following Covid. Extremely clean - everyone in masks, hands sanitized, temperature checked, etc. Kari has been fantastic - fixing all the knots and daggers in my back resulting from all the sitting on a kitchen stool hunched over working from home. Definitely recommend!”
“Delashon did amazing work on my chronically troubled lower back. The massage was just what I needed, but he also gave me some insights into the possible origins of my back and hip issues that I had never considered before. Definitely recommend... ”
“Amazing place! It felt like a $500 massage. Never felt better. I’d go back again for sure! Nicest staff, very clean place. Couldn’t have done any better. Simply amazing.”
“My husband and I went for massages today and they were amazing! My husband had Kenia and I had Abby. I wish I could take Abby home with me as we speak the same language! She totally understood my body and my needs and provided a truly healing experience! My husband was equally pleased with his massage provided by Kenia.
I’d go regular if I lived here :) Thanks ladies.”
“Highly recommend Form + Function massage. Rhys took the time to understand my needs and built a massage that addressed them. I appreciated that he chatted with me after the massage and showed me new stretches to try. I left feeling incredible and looking forward to coming back soon.”
Why does it hurt?
Muscular injury causes a chain reaction that begins with vasoconstriction, or narrowing of the blood vessels in the affected area. While this is helpful in limiting blood flow and reducing bruising, it also causes muscle tissue to tighten. When muscle tissue becomes hypertonic (tight), toxins such as Lactic, Pyruvic, and Hyaluronic acids can become trapped due to reduced circulation called Ischemia. These naturally occurring acids cause pain because they are neuro-exciters, meaning that they increase nerve sensitivity. That's why it hurts.
