In June, 1980, John Salo the founder of Ballard Health Center, was quoted by the Ballard News Tribune.
“One of the biggest things we work with is body tension,” Salo says. “We’re living in a society where it’s very hard not to build up tension just from everyday living.”
Massage can help release that tension, he said then, and we still believe that is important today.
