Veterans, you’ve earned access to care that helps you recover, move better, and keep pushing forward. With a referral from your PCM, massage therapy can be part of your recovery plan—helping address pain, mobility limitations, tight muscles, and the wear-and-tear that comes from years of service. Start by asking your Primary Care Manager for a referral for corrective massage therapy, then book your first session with Bodies By Craft Massage Clinic and let’s get to work.

Call (401) 359-3936, for assistance when switching over your referral.

Sometimes you need to focus more on recovery, than pushing harder in training. Fatigue can be debilitating. I choose to become a massage therapist to help athletes get to that next level. To be the solution I could never find myself. Athletes/active adult supporting athletes/active adults. Don't let annoying minor injuries or ailments hold you back. Try a session and you won't regret it.

After a run, what area do you usually work on first: calves, hips, hamstrings, or low back? Or do you just stretch whatever feels the loudest that day?

Cyclists, where do you feel the ride the most afterward: neck, low back, hips, or calves? I feel like everyone has that one spot that talks back first.

"Triathletes: swim, bike, and run all stack stress in different places.

Swim volume can load the lats, pecs, traps, neck, and shoulders. Bike position can tighten hip flexors, quads, calves, low back, and thoracic spine. Running can add more demand to calves, hamstrings, glutes, and feet.

That’s why recovery work for triathletes should look different than a general massage. At Bodies By Craft Massage Clinic in Columbia, we focus on targeted sports massage for athletes, active adults, and veterans.

Which discipline leaves you feeling the tightest: swim, bike, or run?"

"Columbia athletes, active adults, and veterans — if you’ve been looking for massage that feels more targeted than a basic spa session, that’s exactly why Bodies By Craft Massage Clinic exists.

We focus on recovery work for people who train, work hard, lift, run, cycle, serve, or simply stay active. Sessions may include targeted sports massage, deep tissue work, cupping, IASTM, and recovery-focused techniques depending on what your body needs.

I’m Joseph Craft, licensed and board-certified massage therapist, and our clinic is in Columbia. What type of recovery content would be most useful in this group: back pain, runners, lifters, cyclists, or desk-worker tension?"

"Columbia Cycling Club riders: longer rides and group pace can expose tightness fast — especially in the neck, traps, low back, hip flexors, quads, calves, and forearms.

Cyclists often think recovery means just stretching quads and calves, but riding posture makes this a full-body conversation. Targeted sports massage can help address the areas that stay loaded from bike position and repetitive output.

Bodies By Craft Massage Clinic serves athletes, active adults, and veterans in Columbia with recovery work built around performance and movement.

After a longer ride, what tells on you first: neck/traps, low back, hips, or calves?"

"Columbia runners: if your calves, quads, or hip flexors stay tight no matter how much you stretch, it may be your training load showing up in the tissue — not a lack of effort.

At Bodies By Craft Massage Clinic, we work with runners, athletes, active adults, and veterans who want recovery work that actually supports performance. For runners, we commonly look at calves, hamstrings, quads, hip flexors, glutes, IT-band-adjacent tissue, and low back tension patterns.

What area gets tight first when your mileage goes up?"

01/07/2026

Wrist pain? Don’t just blame the wrist.

Tight forearms, overworked grip muscles, and repetitive stress can all feed tension into the wrist and hand.

At Bodies By Craft, we work the source — not just the symptom.
