Healing Massage and Emotional Release
Tuesday, August 17th, 2010 | Health, Massage, Seattle
A good, deep tissue massage isn’t just about healing the body, it’s also about releasing deeply stored emotions.
Intense emotions can be held deep inside our muscle tissue the same way they are stored in the brain, just waiting for a familiar scent or a stranger’s face to release them.
Receiving a therapeutic massage may dislodge some emotional layers you haven’t dealt with in a while and you might come away from a massage feeling either light as a summer’s breeze, or as heavy as a boulder, all depending upon which emotions were tapped into.
These emotional releases are connected with good, deep bodywork, and as a massage practitioner I’ve witnessed many emotionally-charged sessions when working with clients. Make no mistake, massage therapy can be intense.
We all carry around pockets of memories within our bodies and dislodging them, shifting them around, and making them a part of your day isn’t always easy. But, stirring things up can be a great thing! Getting these intense feelings outside oneself and into the light can be a fantastic improvement to one’s day.
So, consider turning a bright blue sky Northwest day into a day where you’ll receive important bodywork. If you’re in Seattle, browsing the web, and thinking of getting a deep tissue massage, also think about the healing benefits of therapeutic massage and bodywork. Maybe even the benefits you don’t usually consider. Like getting in touch with deeply held emotions and opening up more.
Turn your day into a healing day and your body and your emotions will thank you for it.
