"Several years ago I injured a shoulder in a snow mobile accident. A medical doctor prescribed physical therapy to restore mobility that was lost. This worked for a while but the stiffness returned again. I talked to Carol Ann about the issue one day and she told me that she might be able to help me. I was somewhat skeptical because I thought that massage therapists just gave massages to relax muscles.
To make a long story short, I scheduled an appointment with Carol Ann to see what she could do. She told me that she would apply pressure to some parts of my shoulder and to tell her when I could not stand the pressure any longer. At one point I thought I was going to die but then the muscles started to loosen up and move again. It has been a year since that appointment and I still have total mobility in my shoulder thanks to Carol Ann.
On another occasion I had a pulled groin muscle and she worked on it much the same way that she did my shoulder and again with great success.
In summary, I will never look at massage therapy again as just a back rub. I have learned that there are many techniques and methods in her line of work and what is used depends on what it is that you want to feel better. I highly recommend Carol Ann if you have any massage type needs."
