Massage Therapy

Stressed or Anxious?

We can help decrease stress and anxiety allowing you to achieve a more relaxed mental state.

Pain?

We can help to alleviate pain by decreasing muscle spasm and releasing endorphins

Stiffness or Loss of Flexibility?

Through massage we can decrease muscle tension, loosen adhesions and break down scar tissue improving flexibility and mobility.

Looking to Improve Athletic Performance?

Freeing longstanding muscular dysfunction will promote enhanced movement leading to improved performance in your sport and in everyday life.  Also, massage speeds post exercise or workout recovery.

Why choose Lucas Physical Therapy and Fitness for your Massage Therapy?

Our Certified Massage Therapist, Stefania Dal Zio PT, is also a licensed Physical Therapist.  In addition to being thoroughly trained in massage therapy (over 700 hours of schooling), she is certified by the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Body Work and holds a Physical Therapy License with the California Board of Physical Therapy. 
This combination of training and experience means that she should be the first choice for people with ongoing sports, orthopedic or neurological injuries that are looking for massage therapy. 
In such cases, the massage therapy and self care instructions she provides will be more effective as she understands the specific needs of any muscle, joint or nerve problem you might have.

Stefania specializes in Restorative Massage therapy.  Stefania’s goals with massage therapy are to identify and resolve primary and secondary areas of soft tissue dysfunction, integrate the entire musculoskeletal system allowing enhanced movement and function without pain.

Frequently, more than massage therapy is needed for a complete recovery.  Stefania can easily combine procedures from physical therapy like specific joint mobilization, exercise or neuromuscular reeducation with the massage therapy to produce the most effective combination of treatment.

Stefania’s Philosophy
