Massage treatments are often focused on a particular
functional issue or anatomic region, though they typically
also include some broader treatment to promote relaxation
[7]. Relaxation has been thought to be helpful to
many healing processes, and from a massage therapy perspective,
to aid in whole body integration to supporting
proper gait and biomechanics of the joint(s). Thus, the
protocol involved regions beyond the knee; time was allotted
to the upper and lower back, neck, chest, and head.
