Pain Management Massage Pregnancy/Prenatal
We focus on the muscles that are causing pain and dysfunction in the body. I then use Neuromuscular work (trigger point therapy, a hyper irritable spot that is applied with
compression) with Myofascial Release (gentle stretching of the tissues to release adhesions), to relieve a specific pain pattern, caused by hyper irritable spot within taut muscles and fascia. We then use the stretching technique of a PNF stretch to take the muscle to its new length, thus giving you more flexibility. |
Pregnancy is a change in a women body physically, mentally and emotionally. With the constant ongoing changes to the body you will fill a shift in all areas both physical and mental. Massage can address all changes designed accommodate you at all stages of pregnancy. I combine Swedish, strain/counterstrain stretches and trigger point into the massage to get the relief you are seeking. Prenatal massage is designed with consideration to the mother and fetus, it is safe during all stages of pregnancy with all precautions taken. It supports and respect the physiological systems that are strained and overworked for the growth of the unborn baby. Therapeutic massage can decrease muscle tension/ strain, reduce edema, aid over stretched muscles improve range of motion, enhance circulation and relieve pain experienced from Trigger Points along with a whole list of other benefits.

Chair Massage
Chair massage is a great way to get rejuvenated at work or play, by reducing stress and promoting better health care. Companies such as Motorola and Google have Chair massage in the workplace because they know it is highly beneficial component to employee wellness. You can arrange your party or work place around, lunch hours, evenings or any other down time. Everyone can receive 5 to 30 minute in the chair depending on what is alloted. |
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is a gentle and mild stretching of the body tissues that can have a profound effect. The tissues that is being stretched is the fascia network also called connective tissue. This tissue surrounds every tissue, organ, nerves, muscle and bones in the body. It is considered to be a continuous laminated sheet that goes on without interruption. When this is damaged (from injury, inflammation, disease, surgery, etc.) it scars and hardens that can place tension and pain/sensitvity on structures and cause pain/sensitivity in other parts of the body. What I do to release the fascia is keep a gentle pressure and stretch to the muscle tissue until the tissue relaxes it may take several sessions to get the tissue to relax. The hold may take several minutes to get the tissue to relax, we never want to go to fast or release the hold to fast, that is why it is so gentle to receive Myofascial Release. |
