Tara Salvagno: Expert in Clinical Massage Therapy at Massage Alchemy MA75315

With over a decade of experience in clinical massage therapy, Tara Salvagno is dedicated to helping individuals achieve pain relief, rehabilitation, and overall well-being. A licensed massage therapist since 2014, Tara began her career in a rehabilitation center in Clearwater, where she spent seven years working alongside medical, chiropractic, and physical therapy practitioners. This foundational experience has shaped her expertise in treating post-trauma and post-surgery patients, as well as providing general pain management solutions.

Specializations & Modalities

Tara employs a range of advanced therapeutic techniques to help clients regain mobility, reduce pain, and restore muscle function. Her specialized modalities include:

• Myofascial Release – A technique aimed at relieving tension and tightness in the fascia to enhance movement and decrease pain.
• Cupping Therapy – Utilizing suction to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing.
• Neuromuscular Therapy (Trigger Point Therapy) – Focusing on releasing trigger points to alleviate chronic pain and muscular dysfunction.
• Flexibility Training – Aiding in increasing range of motion and overall mobility.
• Deep Tissue Massage – Targeting deeper layers of muscle to address chronic pain and tension.
• Relaxation Massage – Promoting stress relief and overall well-being through soothing techniques.

Philosophy & Approach

Tara’s therapy is centered on retraining the body to function optimally by addressing the fundamental aspects of muscle health. She believes that healthy muscles alleviate pressure on joints, release impinged nerves, and relieve spinal tension—ultimately leading to improved posture and reduced inflammation.

Her guiding philosophy aligns with the well-known adage: “A body in motion stays in motion.” She encourages her clients to maintain an active lifestyle, understanding that movement is key to sustained health and longevity.

Beyond Massage Therapy

Outside of her professional practice, Tara is a passionate advocate for a holistic lifestyle. She enjoys growing her own food, woodworking, crafting, and reading. As a mother of two and a devoted wife, she balances her career with her love for family life. Before entering the world of massage therapy, she spent nearly a decade as a professional cook, and she still delights in trying new recipes and baking.

At Massage Alchemy, Tara brings her wealth of experience and compassionate approach to help clients achieve optimal movement, pain relief, and overall well-being. Whether recovering from surgery, managing chronic pain, or simply seeking to improve physical function, clients can trust Tara’s expertise to guide them on their healing journey.
