Santa Monica Sports Massage

Santa Monica Sports Massage is a clinical manual therapy practice specializing in advanced sports massage and soft-tissue treatment for pain relief and movement restoration. Founded by Michelle Mercier, CMT, the practice is staffed by certified manual therapists who use evidence-based techniques including myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, trigger point therapy, IASTM (Graston), and cupping to identify and treat the root cause of pain rather than just symptoms. Their approach combines detailed anatomical knowledge with personalized treatment plans, and they work closely with physical therapists, orthopedic surgeons, and other healthcare professionals to support long-term functional improvement.
