Services
We are husband and wife massage therapy team Sunrise & Amy Gervais. After more than 17 years in business working in both clinical and spa massage environs, we are excited to have opened our first joint massage therapy business in Madison, AL. We are both nationally and state licensed massage therapists who have trained with the leaders in our industry around the world.
NO IT IS NOT! Perhaps now more than ever we need to clarify terms and make sure that at Madison Orthopedic Massage we do and this benefits you tremendously. Cleaning refers to washing dirt, debris, and common germs away from a workspace, hands, or area in use. Washing your hands for at 20 seconds with warm water helps to do this effectively.
I use gentle manual massage therapy techniques to achieve motion, break up/realign scar tissue, reset muscle firing imbalances, reset muscle resting lengths, and treat tissue dysfunction. This approach promotes homeostasis (balance) in the soft tissues and the nervous system allowing for treatment of the cause of the pain or strain pattern rather than just the symptom.
I'm glad you found your way here. A little of my road to becoming a Massage Therapist. After graduating from the University of Montevallo, I went to work for a defense contractor on Redstone Arsenal. Having graduated with a History/English major, I'm not sure how I landed the position of starting the company's first graphics department, but I did!
Our clients experience elimination or drastically reduced Back, Neck, and Shoulder pain so they can get back to worry free living. Our clients feel more energy, experience greater mobility, and quickly return to the hobbies they enjoy. Our clients leave feeling repaired, renewed, educated and empowered allowing them to achieve their goals with increased joy.

This is the only place in the area that can truly help you if you have orthopedic issues, especially if you do not want to have surgery. Physical therapy was having me do exercises that were hurting my back and aggravating my sciatic. After once session with Sunrise, my back completely stopped hurting. He knows everything about how the body works and how to alleviate pain. I am so happy my mother recommended him or I would still be in agony. He completely healed her as well.

I’ve tried many different orthopedic massages and to me what separates Sunrise from all the other providers is his willingness to customize his treatment to ensure that an individuals unique needs are met! I’ve been dealing with a neck/shoulder joint issue for years and it is FINALLY managed/relieved thanks to Sunrise. He is not one of those that immediately ends his appointment once the clock strikes either. If he feels unsatisfied after time has expired, he will let you know and continue to work in order to make sure you leave with a positive experience and proper results!

I can hardly describe in words the positive impact I have experienced after receiving only two (so far) massages from Sunrise. I have dealt with chronic migraines and neck pain for many years. When I went for my first massage I was in a 7 week bout of migraine headaches. After the massage I went two full weeks migraine free! Sunrise is the consummate professional, kind and compassionate, extremely skilled with highly effective techniques. He also validated (and gave me additional understanding) about how my emotional stress (worrying about my ailing mom) was compounding my physical health problems

Years of playing/coaching soccer has lead to numerous ankle, knee and back problems. Been seeing Sunrise for a while now and he is always professional and knowledgeable. He listens to my issues and gets to the root of the problem. After a few visits I'm feeling so much better. If you are an athlete he is the person to see for your aches and pains!

After a session with Sunrise, my body was able to allow itself to heal without a surgery that was scheduled on my knee. I was also having sciatic pain that was relieved after the session, too. My goal was to have some relief from pain until the surgery, but the release of stress and pressure on the knee with corrective manipulations allow both the knee the opportunity to heal and the sciatic pain to subside. Sunrise is very knowledgeable.

I HIGHLY recommend Sunrise to all. I have had several sessions with Sunrise, and I will never go back to the big name massage places, which they were good..but not what I needed. Sunrise always makes it a point to pay attention to how your walking, asks questions to understand what you're needing from him. He will then tailor what you need. The first time I saw him I could feel the tension leave my neck and shoulders. To not be in pain was amazing. This last time I saw him, after my session he promised I would finally get a good night's sleep, and he was right.

Madison Orthopedic Massage has the absolute best massage therapists hands down! I have seen both Amy and Sunrise, on more than one occasion, both before and after my pregnancies. I have been dealing with sciatic pain, from pregnancy, as well as a few other pains, from an active lifestyle and most recently, due to my orthopedic massage session, I finally am feeling like myself again! Sunrise is truly extremely knowledgeable about the body, ligaments, muscles and connective tissues and knows exactly what to do, to help everything become cohesive again. I am so grateful for his services, as well as

I have been going to Madison Orthopedic Massage for several years and see both Sunrise and Amy. The office is always clean, and has a calming relaxing atmosphere. I see both therapist for different reasons depending upon my needs. Sunrise, with his background of physical therapy, is very knowledgeable about the human body and knows how to target your issues to return your body to a pain free and mobile state. He helps you understand why you are experiencing pain and provides you with exercises you can do at home to continue to improve your functionality. Amy provides a wonderful mind and body experience

Madison Orthopedic Massage has been a great experience for me. My shoulder was in constant pain, the slightest shoulder movement was painful. My fist visit was the consultation and my initial Orthopedic Massage. Within three appointments Sunrise had given my back a quality of life I hadn't had in over nine months.
Sunshine's motto is healing without pain. He was very tuned into my pain level and adjusted his massage therapies to ensure I had an appropriate treatment without incurring any more pain.
Sunrise and Amy have an extremely clean, and very comfortable office space.
They are most certainly

I have suffered from back/joint pain for a few years now. I used to see a chiropractor for my pain, but it never really helped. I started visiting Sunrise at Madison Orthopedic Massage awhile back and found better results from him. He is attentive and understands how to help me manage my pain. The office has a very comfortable atmosphere and my needs are always put first. I am thankful for all that Sunrise and Amy do!
