As with regular massage, it's a therapeutic workout that loosens the muscles and joints, improves the circulation, relieves fatigue and, in aiding the body, also benefits the mind and spirit. The session utilize the Body Cushion System which allows client to lie face-down with proper spinal alignment or in a "side-lying" position with your body fully supported with pillows. Swedish massage, acupressure and mild stretching are used to relax and soothe the body, treat and ease tensions. At the end of the session you are left feeling restored, relaxed and comfortable in your new body. Medical Massage Medical.
Medical Massage
Medical Massage is not a specific technique but it caters to the medical condition presented. Deep Tissue Massage A specific type of massage therapy that concentrates on the deep layers of muscle and fascia in the body reducing chronic pain. Because deep-tissue massage increases the flow of blood through the body, it helps reduce the inflammation that causes pain. Deep-tissue massage can also help alleviate muscle tension that is often a side effect of chronic pain by loosening the tight tissue clusters.Swedish Massage Lighter touch technique sometimes with active or passive joint movement. Very good for relaxation, circulation, ROM, muscular tension relief.Sports Massage Used as a means to enhance pre-event preparation and reduce recovery time for maximum performance during training or after an event. Helps promote flexibility, reduces fatigue, improves endurance, helps prevent injuries and prepares body and mind for optimal performance. Myofascial Release Gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. Cupping Helps to move stagnant blood and lymph, thus improving energy flow. Aroma Touch A clinical approach to applying essential oils along energy meridians and visceral contact points of the back and feet to help stimulate and balance sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous systems of the body. Infant Massage Instruction All babies should be massaged, touched and loved to promote their social-emotional-cognitive and physical development. Infant massage empowers parents and improves the parent-infant attachment process. Classes are private or small groups. I m not sure you will use this info about me but here is "my story" in brief.
After giving un-medicated
Natural birth to both of my daughters and feeling the power it gave me as a woman, I knew I wanted to be involved in the field of working with pregnant women so they, too, are able to experience what I had. Soon after attending the birth of my youngest niece, I became a certified Labor Doula through DONA (Doulas Of North America). As a doula I assisted women in labor by offering them emotional and physical support during the birth of their babies. Along with this support, I also began to provide massage. I found that my patients responded to different areas of touch but I didn't know why. As a result of this, I felt it was important to learn why certain areas of a laboring body felt better being massaged than others. In 2003 I enrolled at the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy in the Medical Massage program. Upon graduation and additional courses in pregnancy massage, I am now able to bring more complete assistance to pregnant and laboring women and to help them understand the changes in their body. I love working with expectant mothers; sharing this exciting time keeps me connected with my own birth experiences and that special time in my life.
In addition to my prenatal work
I have had the privilege to assist clients with a wide range of physical issues from ALS, cancer, stroke, surgical, to even end-of-life. The combination of my professional and personal experiences allows me to provide more wholesome massage sessions for my clients.
