About Nature's Way
Terri R. Freeborn
Certified Medical Massage Therapist
I have practiced healing arts for twenty years. In June of 2004, I graduated from the Professional Massage Therapy Virginia School of Massage Training Program in Advanced Massage and Body Work. I am certified by the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Body Work (NCMBTMB), and am licensed by the Virginia Board of Nursing. In April of 2008 I received my Medical Massage Certification in Costa Rica at an NCBTMB accredited school. I have also received my certification as a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner.
My skills go beyond traditional massage therapy, I blend theories from Thai Massage, Reiki, Energy work, and Chinese healing practices into my Swedish massage, Neuromuscular massage, Deep Tissue massage, Sports massage, Myofacial Release, Joint Mobilization, Hot Stone, and Medical massage. I assess and chart the progress of clients with medical issues, often in conjunction with the client’s doctor.
The therapeutic effects of massage are well proven to reduce stress and chronic pain. It is beneficial in assisting clients to regain range of motion post surgery or injury. Massage increases circulation thereby assisting the body in eliminating metabolic waste, toxins, and excess fluids. And perhaps most of all, massage is the ultimate relaxing experience, promoting physical and mental well being.
