Therapy for Relief of Lyme Disease Symptoms
Speaker:
Colleen Smith, NY Licensed and Nationally Certified Massage Therapist
Colleen will explore how massage therapy may help alleviate Lyme symptoms, such
as muscle aches, joint pain, and headaches. She will also discuss the overall immune strengthening effects of
massage and the potential benefits of manual lymphatic drainage for chronically
ill patients. The talk will include a demonstration of simple self-massage
techniques. Colleen is a Lyme disease survivor who was
so impressed by the healing benefits of massage therapy that she took a career
turn to become a practitioner herself.
