Healthy Living Simply By Touch
Holistic Approach:
Looking at the person as a whole including environmental stress factors; stressing "self-care" with traditional commonsense essentials when choosing to live a more balanced life
Goal:
Helping the body return to a more healthy condition.
Helping the body return to a more healthy condition.
Healthy muscles do not feel painful to the touch! In a healthy state, our internal environment takes energy in, utilizes it & dissipates it back into the environment with fluidity as it depends on a smooth & efficient transformation of energy for muscle movement. Ever feel completely drained?
Unhealthy muscles feel ropey and crunch when rolled across, are thick and hard and resist being palpated as well as painful to the touch and if left in this condition for a length of time can feel numb. The cause; Collagen within muscle protein thickens, bonding together, causing muscles to stick together, causing lack of movement (restriction) as the muscle's fascial sheath that surrounds it sticks to surrounding area muscles. The result is postural strain (distortions) causing muscles to work harder and become hypertonic, forming trigger points within the fibers and building additional connective tissue, keeping muscles in a contracted state, causing more distortion. (Pain Cycle)
Breaking the pain cycle how?
Using Therapeutic Massage to reduce or eliminate pain & restrictions from muscles & fascia due to stress and/or trauma to the muscular and nervous systems of which causes the restriction & pain. Reducing tension & alleviating restrictions in the Myo (muscle) fascial (fascia) and neuromuscular system, increases fluid circulation in the body.
