Ricky Prevatte Massage

Well now Is medical massage for you?
It was for David. He came in today. His fingers were almost closed to the palm of his hand. One hand had been operated on.
But when he left, both hands had more usability in just one session than any doctor could create.
What I mean is very simply he could use all four of his fingers to hold a hammer or glass of tea, or shake your hand.
Please give this a try before you sign your life away under CareCredit on a $4000 program with some other kind of healthcare professional. All they did was do a little bit and go over your financials.
All I’m going to do is my best. If it works for you, that would be wonderful. If it doesn’t you won’t have thousands of dollars to pay back That would be even better. Call me if you think something different might be for you. 704-622-9952 we can get started this week.
No, you don’t have to have fingers that close and will not open you can just have a need for good relaxation, but you can be assured if I can do that with the fingers I can certainly help your stress go away. Two more patients: I had one with tennis elbow. It is totally eradicated now.
Her son with shin splints had a bad track meet but his twin brother came. He’s gone to nationals. Now Grant can jump and do like he is supposed to. No shin splints - one session.

My wonderful friend has stated this just right.
I just wish people would adhere to it. It makes life easier for those of us who have or may choose to have a service animal.
Please read this post. 

Service dogs.
Probably one of the most unpopular topics for any pet dog trainer.
I cannot begin to count the amount of service dog training requests I receive.
“Can your online courses train my dog to be a service dog?”
“I need to make my dog a service dog so he can ride on the bus with me” (Yes, someone seriously asked me this)
“Do you certify service dogs?”
No - no - no - and more no.
Service dog training is completely different from pet dog training.
If your dog is trained to walk nicely on a leash and sit and stay, they are a pet dog.
If your dog comes up to you and nuzzles you when you are sad - they are still a pet dog.
If you want your dog to accompany you into stores or fly in-cabin on planes … they’re still only a pet dog and these privileges are not for them.
Service dogs are task-trained.
They are specifically taught to work for people with disabilities.
A dog that solely provides comfort is not a service dog.
I see a lot of people acquiring dogs, labeling them as “my service dog” and *then* going about training them.
This is not how that works.
You cannot just select a dog, put a service dog harness on them and figure the rest out as you go.
We regularly receive requests from dog owners who tell us that their “service dog” pulled them over on leash or nips at visitors.
That their service dog relentlessly chases wildlife on walks or has intense anxiety in social settings.
One time I got a request from a lady who told me that she got a dog from the shelter to be her son’s service dog, but that “service dog” was now biting the son and could I please fix it.
I’m sorry - none of those dogs are not service dogs then. And they likely won’t be service dogs in the future either.
Please be honest about the dog you own.
Unless you worked diligently to train them as a service animal with specific tasks, they are a pet.
A beloved, (hopefully) well-behaved, wonderful pet.
But not a working dog, and you should not demand the privileges that are reserved for true service dogs and their disabled handlers.
Staying clear with this distinction protects the actual service dogs and their owners 🙂

Well, it is in stock this year.
so give us a call. Come get you some get rid of those annoying leg cramps. 

Magnesium Calming Cream Magnesium Calming Cream

Looking for a helpful tip this summer? Let’s take a look at the wonders of magnesium. I am in no way suggesting to use straight and pure magnesium on the skin instead I suggest exploring different brands of safe usage with magnesium in topical cream or gel. Everyone encounters muscle cramps and spasms but I find that CryoDerm can really do the trick when applied to the area of pain. This has also been useful for those who suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome. CryoDerm even says in the description of their product (Magnesium Calming Cream) “Magnesium calms nerves and muscles, aids in the reduction of cramping and hypertonicity, and combats stress and fluid retention.” This is a product I use in my practice and as of writing this post they currently are out of stock. Instead there are other options available on amazon while they are not products I use frequently I still would suggest them if you are looking for different types of topical magnesium products. We are trying to prevent summer cramps from swimming or walking although you may take magnesium in a pill form the topical has proven more useful when applied directly to the area of pain. Please tell me and others in the comments what you have found useful. Check out these links to a few magnesium products!

Online Booking - Ricky Prevatte Massage - Charlotte, NC

A strange but wonderful thing happened today. One of my oldest referral partners called he thought that we had gone out of business.
I assured him nothing could be further than the truth.
It will be great to work with this great sports medicine team again. he was happy to see I’m almost his next-door neighbor.
I did share with him about all of the new modalities and tools we have added to our tool kit.

Well onward and upward.


Facebook put a little button up and asked me to request reviews.
Well that’s what I’m going to do I hope all of the good patience would once again come to our aid.
Then after you leave us a nice review come on back down to rock Hill and check out the new locations.
Meet Dr. Jay and the team as well over at Carolina Family Chiropractic.
By the way many of you may not know we are now open on Saturday as well. From 8 AM to 10 PM at the clinic.
Then I am back here at the old home Place on Kallaramo for the rest of the day

Merry Christmas to all!

Yes we will be doing free session Saturday this week.
This is for new clients only.

It’s a great way for our existing folks to introduce my work to your friends.
But if your friend joins our membership I will have a special gift for you.
We ask everyone to call Wendy to reserve your spot and we have a few screening questions we will need to take care of.
We will be paying close attention to all precautions for Covid.
We would also love the opportunity to show how we are protecting the public and our selves by following proper Covid protocol.
I have noticed some in the Massage industry are not doing all I think they can.
I have also noticed that every time something extra is added there is an extra charge from others in the Massage industry in the rock Hill area. We do not and will not charge extra for things like topical, K taping, cupping,vibration and percussion therapy, stretching, and you won’t have to check a box to get your feet worked on here.


We are excited to inform everybody of all of the earth shaking, groundbreaking changes we are about to make! No, we are not moving or relocating the business - thank goodness!!
As you well know, Covid has changed many things, but we hope that these will be some good changes that we are going to implement beginning tomorrow, 9/9/2021. You will now be able to use your credit card and health savings accounts again. But we have implemented online booking and many other helpful tools to streamline our operations. You will receive reminders in the future that will be automated and help everyone to remember their designated appointment time.

We discontinued packages, but I believe we have found a replacement (finally) for our good ol’ package system that we had for so many years.

I am implementing a new membership program that will be easier to control (in case of another shut down), and it will help me not to have to process credit cards - still tough for blind people to do since I have not found an accessible way to do this by myself yet. Credit card payments will be done online from now on.

Wendy and I want to thank you all for your support, referrals and loyalty for all these years.
We will be working in conjunction with Massagebook to help us do these things that I could not do by myself.
