Myofascial Release
You may have heard of Myofascial Release, but aren't quite sure what it is.
In today's world we tend to not use all of our muscles on a daily basis. When we are active it oftentimes is repetitive movements which tend to over exercise only specific muscles while leaving other muscles to shorten and almost atrophy. Fascia is a thin layer of fiber which covers the muscles in the body. It's proper state is pliable, allowing the muscles to move freely. However, when it is left stagnant over a period of time it becomes stagnant and hard, making it very difficult for the muscles under it to perform their natural range of motion and movement.
Myofascial Release is a well-known, proven method of slow, deep massage which coaxes the fascia back into it's normal, natural, pliable state allowing the muscles below to move freely.
Torticollis (stiff neck)
Have you ever woken up in the morning and can't turn your neck? I have specific areas I work on to loosen the muscles and release that tightness.
Frozen Shoulder
Having trouble lifting your arm past a certain point or changing gears in your stick shift? Medical Massage should be one of your first go to's.
Tendonitis
My fingers will find the specific tendon and follow it, along with opposing muscles, until they relax and give you relief.
Post Surgical/Lymphatic Massage
Surgery can be a shock to the body. The best gift you can give yourself is to calm the muscles and nerves with a very gentle massage.
Doctors recommend massage for people who have just had plastic surgery to keep down swelling with a nice lymphatic massage.
Low Back Pain
Generally low back pain stems from somewhere else. The body is all connected. With my many years of experience, I've learned to feel exactly where that pain originates.
Sciatica/Piriformis Syndrome
Do you feel a pain in your glute and going down the back of your leg. There is a very specific area that needs to be massaged with experience finesse, because it can be painful!
TMJ
Massage can help loosen the muscles that create a tight, hard to open jaw.
Sinus Pressure
Massage feels so good when you have a buildup of sinus pressure and it is gently coaxed away.
Plantar Fasciitis
Are your feet killing you from overuse? Massage is one of the best cures. It's not just a foot rub, there are certain techniques needed in order to melt the fascia and relieve the muscles.
Intestinal Massage
Sometimes the digestive system needs a little help to relax and move things along. Intestinal massage helps with bloating and swelling along with aiding in regularity. It is gentle, relaxing and effective.
Tight Hamstrings and Calves
Having tight hamstrings and calves can cause many adverse issues in other parts of the body. It is very important to maintain these muscles in good working condition to prevent a number of possible issues, including problems in the feet, glutes, low back and even neck. One of the most painful areas to massage is the calves, hands down. I've developed a treatment, however, that addresses tight calves in a more gentle way and with better results. No need to fear. I will not carelessly press on trigger points which make you want to jump off the table such as many other massage therapists. My method is far easier and more gentle..
Psoas Treatment
People that sit at a desk for hours on end sometimes begin having low back issues due to a tightening and eventually a shortening of the psoas muscles. The muscle begins in the low back and wraps around to the front, causing a pulling into the upper thigh area. This causes low back pain, and eventually an inability to stand up straight.
