MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – A Marquette therapy clinic is marking eight years of service to its community.
Body Therapy Center celebrated the milestone with the Lake Superior Community Partnership Wednesday morning. Lisenced Therapist Rod Gates has held a background in anesthesiology, before opening his own practice with a focus apart from the traditional relaxation massage.
The business specializes in RAPID Neurofascial Reset Therapy, as one of the only practices in the region to use the technique. It is relied on for chronic headache treatment and long term muscle pain, among other common nerve issues. Gates says sessions for RAPID treatment only take about 30 minutes, and are similar in comfortability to a chiropractor appointment.
“It’s different than most body modalities in the massage world because it targets your nervous system, and that’s a total game changer in terms of how quickly people can get pain relief, and also how long it lasts and how few treatments they need,” he said.
