“I’m getting better results from my sessions with you than I did with acupuncture or chiropractic adjustments."

That's because Restored by Touch in Greater Orlando, Florida uses the same Medical Massage techniques approved as the only massage used at the internationally renowned Barrow Neurological Institute at Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, AZ.
 

Using this Medical Massage program, developed and perfected to teach in the U.S. by Dr. Turchaninov MD, our lead massage therapist is able to effectively treat and in most cases eliminate over 60 medical conditions using Medical Massage procedures currently being used in Russia, Europe, Australia, Ireland, and in the U.S.

Thank you for considering Restored by Touch as your muscle health support provider. If you’re looking for advanced skilled therapists and lifestyle consultants with a personal touch, you’ve come to the right place. We’re ready to help you reach your massage and optimal health goals with scientific precision and family-style personalized care.

Our sessions are never rushed or mechanical. Appointments start in a relaxing setting with a pre-massage health screening. This sets the foundation for a customized treatment plan combining various techniques targeting individual preferences, health issues, stress levels, career/job/lifestyle demands, and existing pain/tension. Each therapy session differs from client to client and may differ between sessions for the same person. Unwavering is the commitment to implement safe science-based tactics used to maximize clients’ highest well-being with consistency.

Carole Suzanne Jackson, BS, MA, LMT, CMMP, Board Certified

Carole Suzanne was first drawn to massage therapy when her back pain defied help from chiropractors and physicians. After trigger point therapy provided relief in 1989, she began an apprenticeship with her massage therapist. Discovering her extraordinary palpation skills, Carole honed in on muscle hypertension and trigger points with precision. Her clients often exclaim, “How did you find that spot! I didn’t know it was there.”  

A complimentary, twenty-minute, Discovery Call helps determine whether you're a good candidate to benefit from medical massage. She only accepts patients who have a high probability of successful treatments.

With a 99.99% success rate, her clients consistently achieve stable healing resolving tension and pain.  She customizes a variety of clinically tested medical massage protocols to address each client’s problem areas. 

Lifestyle changes help maintain the relief. Carole's clients enjoy high success in making healthy lifestyle changes as she coaches them in how to work the necessary changes into the demands common to everyday life. "It's my job to tell you how to support your muscle health goals, it's your job to decide if you want to implement it. If so, I will give you all the support necessary to make it happen. If one way doesn't work for you, we'll find another way," Carole reassures her clients.

Carole Suzanne's experience as a former dancer, being one of the first in Florida to be certified as a functional fitness instructor complimented her college studies in exercise science and serves her clients well in self-care instructions. It's no wonder they are consistently achieving their goals.

"Scoliosis is my favorite condition to treat. When eligible clients follow the full protocol, their changes are so dramatic. It's a great joy to relieve people who have suffered for so many years,” says Ms. Jackson. "According to Dr. Ross, orthopedic surgeon, chiropractor, and expert in clinically tested medical massage techniques, medical massage is the number one non-invasive treatment protocol yielding the best relief for some cases of scoliosis. Combined with chiropractic spinal adjustments, it’s the perfect marriage for optimal relief and healthy aging."

Another condition with few effective treatment options is migraines. Medical massage protocols will completely resolve 80% of all migraine-type headaches and greatly improve the remaining 20%.

Listed below are just a few testimonials from happy clients. Be sure to review our page dedicated to scoliosis. It's complete with pictures of visible progress within just 21 days!

Therapeutic Modalities

We primarily use clinically tested medical massage protocols advocated by the Science of Massage Institute. This treats all levels of soft tissue such as skin, fascia, muscle, and periosteum. It is a very targeted treatment getting to the origin of the pain rather than treating the symptoms alone. Clinicians proficient in this advanced medical massage rank in the top 2 percentile of massage therapists in the United States. 

Some of the more commonly known modalities include Swedish, "deep tissue," myofascial release, trigger point therapy, post-isometric relaxation (PIR) stretching, and active isolated stretching. With customized massages, Carole may also incorporate some craniosacral therapy, and/or reflexology. She has advanced training under Aaron Mattes.
