As a bodywork practitioner certified in Medical Massage Therapy, I'm trained to provide healing comfort and soothing relief for your chronic or acute aches and pains. Although some clients come in just for relief from pain due to daily stress (and we know that stress either causes or intensifies most of our health issues), many of my clients have more involved issues due to chronic over-use, or injury, etc. resulting in conditions, such as migraines, sciatica, fibromyalgia, frozen shoulder, whiplash, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff issues, and so on. (For a more in depth explanation of what is involved in Medical Massage, visit my website: www.dgarske.abmp.com) I am trained in and employ a variety of techniques including Deep Tissue, and Trigger Point Therapies, Myofascial Release, and CranioSacral Therapy--along with Aromatherapy and Thermal/cryo (hot/cold) therapy, as indicated. I am also trained in Prenatal Massage and Pediatric Massage. And I believe in the power of prayer.

I feel that the key to providing you with effective bodywork is communication. I attempt to really listen to you, both before and during the medical massage therapy session, to ensure your specific issues are addressed. By telling me what you want and need, and giving me feedback during the session, you allow me to give you the most effective treatment possible, while staying within your "comfort zone."

Hanford Medical Massage Therapy is located in downtown Hanford, with a city parking lot out back, for convenient parking.
