Leslie Sisto LMT/LVT
Therapeutic massage for people and animals
When relaxation isn't enough
Problems and treatments
Problems treated
OVER TWO DECADES OF PRACTICE, Leslie has treated clients with neck and shoulder problems, repetitive stress disorders, athletic and vehicular injuries, skeletal deformity, muscle spasms and fibromyalgia. Therapeutic massage and accompanying technologies, particularly cold laser, can help speed healing, reduce inflammation, increase range of motion and restore comfortable activity.
How does it work?
PROFESSIONAL MASSAGE can offer both immediate and long-term effects. Beyond relaxation, deep-tissue release promotes healthy blood flow, delivering useful nutrients to painful areas, flushing out inflammatory agents, and releasing endorphins. Leslie’s hands-on treatments combine time-honored modalities and proven technologies.
What to expect
BE PREPARED with any specific medical information related to your concerns, as well as your goals. While Leslie has extensive experience with sports, traumatic and repetitive stress injuries, as well as work-related symptoms, each person's needs and physiology are unique. Initial and ongoing assessment will guide your treatments, using manual therapy and focused attention to achieve physical recovery, stress reduction and increased performance. Whether short-term or ongoing, clients consider therapeutic massage with Leslie an effective contribution to their physical well-being
Neck and shoulder
Pain, limited motion, headaches and numbness are just a few of the problems originating here, which often affect the rest of the body. This complex area responds to targeted and sensitive massage of layered muscles surrounding the neck, along with deep tissue release around and under the shoulder blades and joints of the arms.
Repetitive stress recovery
Whether you’re at a salon or a construction site, on your feet or in a cubicle, the habits of daily life can take a toll. Leslie understands the particular wear and tear caused by lifting, driving, sitting, and carrying a backpack or a baby. Your treatments will focus on regaining strength and stability as well as comfort and range of motion.
Athletic achievement
Growing up in snow country, my daughter started skiing at the age of three. In spite of scoliosis, her racing skills flourished. When pain started to interfere with her performance and increase risk on the slopes, we added Leslie's support to her medical care and exercises. With regular massage therapy and cold laser treatments, Jackie stays strong, fast and agile.

Healing from injury
Aiding the body’s functions, massage brings healing nutrients to damaged areas while helping clear inflammation. Deep tissue manipulation and structural integration promotes relief from injuries and chronic pain. From young athletes to active seniors, massage therapy can also help clients relax, release trauma and recover confidence.
