Massage Therapy Chicago | Massage for women with an experienced therapist

DEANA BURROWS

Licensed Massage Therapist

Welcome. It's not always easy to find a massage therapist who you feel connected with. My goal is to help facilitate that by working with you to find the best course of treatment that is personally geared toward your specific needs. My focus is on Women and Women's Health, and I have been in practice for almost twenty years. That time has allowed me to develop an acute sensitivity and quality of touch, as well as integrity of intention in my work.

I offer massage therapy out calls in your home throughout the Chicago area and surrounding suburbs, as well as in all area hospitals. Or, come to my home office, located on the North side of Chicago, in the Andersonville neighborhood.

Massage Therapy helps

ease your pressure,

restore your balance,

and enhance your well being

throughout your life.

Massage benefits you by:

-Boosting your Immunity

Getting a session of massage therapy actually reduces the levels of the stress hormone cortisol in your blood. New studies reveal a possible link between Massage therapy sessions and healing from breast cancer: http://www.massagemag.com/Magazine/2004/issue107/research107.phpInfant growth

-Lowering your Blood Pressure

Massage sessions can lower blood pressure, increase relaxation and help induce sleep. This can be vitally important during times of illness, hospitalization, pregnancy and post pregnancy, and when you are just feeling run down, or in need of a nurturing boost.

-Aiding Circulation

Getting a treatment will bring a fresh increased blood supply to your tissues. This helps aid recovery to pulled or strained muscles, eases soreness, facilitates healing and reduces muscle spasms. It also helps your system flush out and eliminate toxins.

-Facilitating your everyday well being

Besides feeling wonderful, touch therapy rejuvenates you. It can enhance your everyday movements by improving your range of motion and joint flexibility, which can help prevent repetitive motion injuries and may also enhance athletic performance. It is also a mood enhancer. By taking an hour to spend some quality time on you, you will feel more connected to yourself, and this can improve your self esteem, and even your body image. Often, a session can greatly ease feelings of anxiety and depression.
