Therapeutic massages are proven to alleviate such conditions as pain due to chronic illness, post-surgery discomfort, depression and anxiety brought about by hospitalization or a challenging diagnosis, and stiffness encountered as a result of prolonged bed rest. Our certified massage therapists are available free of charge to patients staying at Saint Mary’s Health Care—only a physician referral form is required to schedule a session.

Inpatients interested in scheduling therapeutic massage sessions should make a personal request through their nurse or attending physician.
