Self-Massage and Pain Relief Consultations
are also available with Barry Bailey, MS, LMT, Active Stretching Instructor/Coach
via ZOOM.

If you are seeking help and guidance for easing tight or sore muscles,
headaches, or for other pain relief,
and you are willing to take personal responsibility for your self-healing,
a ZOOM Consultation may be helpful for you.

Beginning with the premise that the body wants to be well and will do all it can to be well, we work with clients to help them reach and maintain that wellness they seek, be it stress relief, pain relief or some other change.

At Bailey Therapeutic Massage I treat the whole person, not just muscles and other soft tissue. I encourage my clients to take personal responsibility for their health, and I assist each client by offering suggestions for taking an active role in achieving and maintaining their own wellness.

I work closely with other Health Professionals in the area in an effort to help clients obtain maximum results. It is often through this sharing of expert knowledge and approach that clients achieve the wellness they seek and deserve.

Barry Bailey opened the original Bailey Therapeutic Massage practice in 1992 at 9 Nason Street in Downtown Maynard. Seven years later the practice moved across the street to the current larger and more accommodating quarters at 14 Nason Street.

In 2004 Barry opened the STAR Tech Healing and Learning Center as a division of Bailey Therapeutic Massage. He continues to "Teach the world how to heal itself . . . one BODY at a time" by sharing with his clients information that deals with body, mind and spiritual healing and wellness.

Over the years Bailey Therapeutic Massage has become well known as a location for people young and old who are in pain, to seek pain relief and education as to how to ease their current pain and to prevent future pain.

Since 2003 Bailey Therapeutic Massage has been the proud winner of numerous Community Newspaper Chain's Readers Choice Awards - Best Massage in Maynard.

We were honored with the Best In Maynard award in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. With nearly a dozen Massage Therapists practicing in the tiny town of Maynard over those years, and many dozens more practicing in the immediate surrounding communities, this honor is all the more special.
