Kristen’s Therapeutic Massage of Allentown is offering a special price for new clients looking to relieve headaches or migraines with individualized therapeutic massage therapy. Massage therapy can offer relief from headache pain by increasing blood flow and oxygen, releasing tension, relieving muscle spasms and promoting relaxation. 

“Almost everyone has suffered from a headache or migraine in their lifetime,” states Licensed Massage Therapist Kristen Hallowell. Some of the causes of headaches are muscle spasms, trigger points, neck alignment, hormonal changes, dehydration, and stress or anxiety. There are a variety of headaches but the most common are vascular and tension headaches. Vascular headaches symptoms include a pounding or throbbing sensation in your head from swelled or constricted blood vessels in the head. Tension headaches are due to tightened muscles in the head, neck, shoulders and/or face. “Massage therapy is one of the best natural alternatives for migraine and headache relief”, adds Hallowell, “and it has been proven that regular routine massage can decrease or eliminate headaches and migraines permanently.” 

New client appointments are just $45 for the first visit. Kristen’s Therapeutic Massage is located at 1701 Union Boulevard in Allentown. Call 484-239-4644 to make an appointment or visit www.kristenstherapeuticmassage.com to see specials and find more information. See ad, page 57.
