ETHICAL MASSAGE Ethical Massage Being a licensed massage therapist for the past eight years in the State of Florida, I have been required to take an ethics course every two years in order to maintain and renew my therapeutic massage and bodywork license.

Swedish massage offers relaxation and helps increase circulation. Swedish massage also provides cardiovascular and lymphatic benefits. A therapeutic massage goes deeper than a Swedish massage and helps to stretch tight muscles and rejuvenate muscle energy. A medical grade massage uses different techniques than the other two types and is used in a therapeutic session. For extreme deep relaxation, be sure and ask about their Amethyst Bio-Mat which combines far infrared technology, amethyst crystals, and negative ions to provide relaxation and a plethora of health benefits. Maggie, Mercy and the staff work with every client individually to customize each session. “It’s important to let your therapist know what your needs are and what you expect and that your therapist listens to those expectations,” Mercy said. They offer individual sessions or packages. There are no contract or membership fees and packages never expire! Their Buy-3-Get-1-FREE package gives the client a 25% discount rate per session. Packages can even be shared with friends and family. Need a gift? If you purchase a package and would like to “gift” one of the sessions to a friend, Divine Connections will make up a certificate for you that you can pass along.…
