THE MOVEMENT METHOD AT ASHEVILLE MEDICAL MASSAGE
Generate Lasting Relief, Prevention, and Performance with The Movement Method
At Asheville Medical Massage, we offer a unique approach to wellness that goes beyond typical massage therapy. Our proprietary Movement Method combines medical massage, gentle joint therapy, and movement coaching to provide you with a comprehensive solution for pain relief, prevention, and enhanced performance. This innovative system helps clients not only recover from pain but also prevent future issues and optimize their body's function for the long term.
WHAT IS THE MOVEMENT METHOD
The Movement Method is a holistic, three-part approach designed to address the root causes of pain and limitations while improving overall movement and performance. By combining the power of medical massage, gentle joint therapy, and movement coaching, we guide you through every stage of healing—whether you're in need of immediate pain relief, seeking to prevent future discomfort, or looking to enhance your physical performance.
This integrated approach helps you achieve lasting results by addressing the What, Why, and How of your pain and movement. The Movement Method is customized specifically to your unique needs through Movement Maps, which provide a personalized plan to guide you through your healing and performance journey.
In order to feel and function your best, all of the following parts of your body need to move and coordinate well together. For example:
-
Soft Tissues, including muscles, ligaments, tendons, and fascia need to glide, push and pull together
-
Joint surfaces where two bones meet need to rotate, flex and extend properly
-
Nerves need to avoid being entrapped by tight soft tissues and misaligned bones
-
Blood and lymph fluid needs to flow freely to nourish and detoxify the entire body
-
Organs needs to be well positioned and able to move freely within a well-aligned structure
We use Movement Maps to identify where these critical functions may be compromised, and The Movement Method is our unique approach to treating them holistically.
At Asheville Medical Massage, we use The Movement Method because it offers a comprehensive, personalized approach to healing that treats both the symptoms and the underlying causes of pain. We believe that real, lasting wellness comes from a combination of targeted therapies that work in tandem to enhance your body’s natural ability to heal and perform.

-
Address the root causes of pain: By focusing on joint mobility, muscle function, and movement patterns

-
