Bullish on Pain

About Us

     Earl “Bull” Tullock has been practicing the Art of Massage since 1980. After retiring from the Air Force, in 2004, he decided to make his lifelong dream, owning his own therapeutic massage practice, a reality. “Massage has come a long way since 1980,” says Bull. What was once considered just a luxury is now widely recognized for it’s therapeutic qualities.” In the last four years the business has grown and expanded to include seven Massage Therapists. “We offer relaxation massage but our main focus is on getting people out of pain and functioning again.”

     One way of doing this is with Neuromuscular Massage Therapy. It is a thorough program of recovery from acute and chronic pain syndromes which utilizes specific massage techniques and flexibility stretching to eliminate most neuromuscular pain patterns. NMT enhances the function of joints, muscles and biomechanics (movement). It also releases endorphins, the body’s natural pain killers. Bull is a nationally certified Neuromuscular Massage Therapist.

     Also available at Bodyworks by Bull is ETPS (Electro Therapeutic Point Stimulation) Neuro-Mechanical Acupuncture. ETPS is a non-invasive therapy applying concentrated, low frequency stimulation to ancient acutherapy points, motor/trigger points and contracted motor bands. This produces an effective and versatile approach to chronic pain management. For more information visit www.acumedical.ca.

     Hot Stone Massage is a massage technique that dates back to ancient times. The heat from the stones warms and relaxes the muscles, which allows for deep pressure, if desired. The warmth improves circulation and calms the nervous system. It also improves osteoarthritis and arthritis pain. It helps reduce stress, tension, insomnia and depression. Hot Stone Massage is an hour and a half experience of complete relaxation and healing that your mind and body will be ever so grateful for.

We also offer Couples Massage. Two people can get a massage in the same room at the same time. Male and female therapists are available. If you have a friend whose a little bit timid about getting their first massage, this is a great way to get them in and get them started.

Bull, his wife Susan, and their team of Therapists can all be found volunteering their time at the finish line of area road races, be it a 5K, 10K, fundraising walk or all out triathlon, most Saturdays. Bull is an ex-bodybuilder and Susan, also a licensed Massage Therapist, is a certified Personal Trainer. “Between us we have a lot of knowledge and a keen interest in keeping people involved in their healthy and active lifestyles.”
