Gaile Ivaska PTA, LMT-BCTMB (CT license #7565) I am a board-certified, Connecticut-licensed massage therapist with over 11 years of clinical experience providing therapeutic massage for physical therapy patients and the general population. Each massage is specifically tailored to address your concerns while providing a holistic wellness experience. Schedule an appointment to decompress from everyday stress or recover from injury, or both. Fifteen years of working in the corporate world left me with back and neck pain. The profound results I experienced from both massage and physical therapy returned me to health, and placed me on my current path of assisting others recovering from their injuries and reducing their stress response. I am dedicated to remaining up-to-date with the latest massage research to safely provide an effective therapeutic massage for my clients. Five years of experience as a physical therapist assistant enhances each massage session through knowledge of specific injury/post-op rehab protocols to inform safe and effective massage therapy for PT patients. During your session,  you will receive therapeutic massage, NOT physical therapy treatment.   Please see my LinkedIn profile for further information on my training and credentials:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/gaile-ivaska-07116510/
