Therapeutic Massage Near Fort Lauderdale, FL | VDM & Massage
Medical-focused massage customized to your specific condition — chronic pain, injury recovery, or targeted therapeutic relief.
What Is Therapeutic Massage?
Therapeutic massage at VDM & Massage goes beyond relaxation to address specific medical conditions, chronic pain issues, and injury recovery. Our therapists conduct a detailed assessment before each session and design a treatment protocol targeting your specific needs — whether that's sciatica, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, post-surgical recovery, or any number of chronic soft-tissue conditions.
Therapeutic Massage Near Fort Lauderdale, FL
Fort Lauderdale has plenty of spas, but authentic traditional Thai massage is harder to find than most people expect. VDM & Massage in Coral Springs — about 25 minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale — has become a destination for Fort Lauderdale residents who want genuine Thai bodywork, deep tissue therapy, and sports massage from licensed therapists trained in traditional techniques. The short drive is well worth it.
What to Expect
Your first therapeutic session begins with a thorough intake including your medical history, current symptoms, and wellness goals. Your therapist will design a customized protocol using the most effective combination of techniques — Thai stretching, deep tissue work, myofascial release, or trigger point therapy. Progress is tracked over multiple sessions with clear therapeutic milestones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is therapeutic massage covered by insurance?
Some health insurance plans and HSA/FSA accounts cover therapeutic massage when prescribed by a physician. We recommend checking with your insurer. We can provide itemized receipts to support your insurance or FSA claims.
How is therapeutic massage different from a spa massage?
Spa massage is designed for relaxation. Therapeutic massage is a clinical approach targeting specific conditions, with detailed assessment, customized protocols, and measurable outcomes. The goal is functional improvement, not just feeling good in the moment.
