Healthwise Massage Therapy Services
Massage Therapist in Arlington, VA
My name is Gail Bell, and I am the owner of Healthwise Massage Therapy Services. Working in this field for 24 years has brought me an understanding of how the ordinary stresses of life - injury, illness, job change, moving, endings and beginnings - can leave a person depleted and discouraged. Massage therapy is a powerful antidote to the strain these events can bring. I'm passionate about healing, and hope to communicate this passion to you. I have created this website as a step toward that goal.

About Us
read moreFully 60% of unresolved chronic back pain is due to one or two muscles. The primary culprit, as I see it, is the psoas muscle, pronounced "so-as" (the p is silent). This is possibly the most powerful muscle in the whole body, and that's because of its size and its location. The more processed food a person consumes, the more magnesium depleted he is. High intake of fat, sugar, sodium, phosphate, and even calcium supplementation further depletes our magnesium levels. Stress increases the body's need for magnesium.

People who have been victims of violence and neglect can also be helped tremendously. Touch is natural, and this therapeutic application is adaptable to a wide variety of personal situations and needs. Where are you located?
