Therapeutic Medical Massage in Boise and Restorative Exercise

Headache

Hi, my name is Emily Boudwin. I am a neuromuscular massage therapist in Boise, Idaho. I focus on your specific issues using therapeutic medical massage therapy and restorative exercise.

I know what it feels like to struggle with chronic headachesneck issues, TMJ pain and migraines. As I’ve dealt with these issues off and on for many years. When I work with a well trained massage therapist, one that listens to my needs, and then focuses the session on those specific needs, spending the length of time needed to treat my chronic issues, I find relief from my pain. 

Massage with Emily

  • I will ask you very specific questions about your pain/discomfort/range of motion issues
  • How long have you had these particular issues?
  • When it flares where does it start
  • Your medical/therapeutic massage session is focusing on a specific area that you are experiencing issues with.

I’m a Retired NMT Therapist 18 yrs. I was in Idaho temporarily working. I’m from Nevada and didn’t know anyone. I was in desperate need for a NMT Massage. My Scalenes, SCM and shoulder Muscles were locked up & in Pain! This was actually the first NMT Massage I ever had! She did exactly what I needed. She focus the entire massage focusing on my Pain! I didn’t need my legs or anywhere else worked on! She is as Strong as Male Therapist! I will definitely be back next year!

Quality Massage I have been going to Emily for almost ten years. She is absolutely the best therapist I have seen (probably been to a dozen or so others, so I know the difference). She listens to what I identify as the problem and always makes progress in resolving the issue. Emily also maintains a balanced approach as well, making certain that resolving one doesn’t create a new problem.
Emily is incredibly knowledgeable of human physiology and can explain in detail what the problem is and provide some ideas of how to avoid it. Please accept this as my highest recommendation. If you try her out, you will probably also be “hooked”.

As a recent transplan to the Boise area and a massage therapist I know how difficult it can be to find a highly skilled and knowledgeable LMT. I am so thankful to have found Emily so quickly. She has helped me to get my migraines back under control and even during a flare up has done wonders to relieve my current state of pain and discomfort. She truly has her client’s best interests at heart and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
