As an LPN, Veronica E. Brooke worked nights in the orthopedic ward at a local hospital where she frequently would give patients back rubs to help them fall asleep. The patients were so impressed that many of them suggested she consider massage therapy as a career. Veronica earned her Massage Therapist certification, and founded Lakewood Massotherapy in 1984. From a modest location in Lakewood OH, Lakewood Massotherapy has grown from a one-site, one-person operation to a seven treatment room facility with twenty-two therapists in Lakewood, and a four treatment room facility with eight therapists in Fairview Park. When we met with Veronica recently, she shared with us this overview of Lakewood Massotherapy's services;

The cornerstone of our approach to massage therapy is building high quality, ongoing client-therapist relationships that focus on developing an extensive knowledge of your therapeutic needs as an individual.

Therapeutic massage combines the essentials of relaxation massage with therapy to provide relief from painful, recurring muscle spasms, to reduce inflammation in injured joints and muscles, and to alleviate fatigue and soreness caused by overworked muscles.

Designed to soothe and relax every muscle in the body, relaxation massage is a calming experience which helps reduce stress, soothe tired, aching muscles, increase energy, endurance, and vitality, and restore the body, mind, and spirit to natural balance.

We have therapists certified in pregnancy massage, geriatric massage, and cancer massage. Many expectant mothers will come in for massages throughout their entire pregnancy. These massages are very relaxing and can provide tremendous relief from the lower back pain and cramping most pregnant women experience.

Geriatric Massage enables senior citizens to experience considerable relief from the aches and pains associated with aging while reducing high blood pressure, lymph edema, and diabetic neuropathy. Geriatric massage also helps stroke patients, as well as those suffering from circulatory impairment, Parkinson's, MS, Alzeimer's sleep disorders, emphysema, joint replacement trauma, amputation, arthritis, bursitis, and even tendentious.

With a valid prescription from your physician, we offer up to three massage treatments at half price to those undergoing treatment for cancer. Massage as an adjunct therapy has the potential to facilitate the healing process both physically and emotionally.

To ensure your comfort, we offer warm blankets if needed, a heated massage table, moist heat compresses, and a tranquil environment complemented by soothing music. While it is essential to discuss with your therapists any concerns you have about your treatment at any time during your massage, we do recommend keeping conversation to a minimum so you can relax, focus on your experience, and achieve the optimum healing and relaxation benefits massage can provide.

For your convenience, we are open seven days a week, and gift certificates are always available.
