Massage

Massage

Massage is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension. While more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, some studies have found massage may also be helpful for:
  • Anxiety
  • Digestive disorders
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Headaches
  • Insomnia related to stress
  • Myofascial pain syndrome
  • Soft tissue strains or injuries
  • Sports injuries
  • Temporomandibular joint pain

At Kunde Institute, our licensed massage therapist offers following services on Saturdays and Sundays at our Daly City location only: 

LYMPHATIC MASSAGE is a treatment for stimulating the immune system by aiding in the release of toxins through the lymphatic system for optimal health. It is excellent for colds, flu symptoms, PMS, headache and many other conditions related to stagnant fluid buildup in the body. 

MANUAL LYMPH DRAINAGE is the form of this massage that treats consequences of cancer therapies where fluid balance has been interrupted and damage to lymph vessels and nodes has occurred. Swelling in the limbs due to these therapies as well as those suffering from insufficient systems from birth, can find relief and a return to good health with regular treatments.

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY is another area of focus for treating stress related conditions. Michele uses the BioDynamic approach to this bodywork allowing the cranial bones to find freedom and fluids within the spinal column to flow unimpeded.  This is deeply relaxing and many say it “re-sets” them emotionally and mentally. It is a hands-on technique similar to Reiki utilizing deep focus, attention and space for the receiver to do the healing.

FULL BODY MASSAGES are also available using warm oils to penetrate the deep tissues and mobilize the joints for better movement.
