Finding the Deep Center of Gravity (Part 1.)

Saturday, April 10th, 2010 | Groin Injury, Massage, networking | No Comments


Let’s face it, we all want to feel better. As a massage practitioner I know this fact in a deep way. Clients come to me with a long list of stresses, strains, pains, aches, and just plain old built up body tension.


No only do I understand this, but the bodyworkers I often network with know this as well. People want to feel better, in every part of their body. Even in certain areas it might be difficult for them to talk about. Pain that comes up when they stretch or move a certain way that shouldn’t be so painful.


One thing that I’ve been discussing with my fellow healing profession workers is my shift in focus to groin and pelvic injury treatment.

Since this is a delicate subject, even talking about it with other massage practitioners can be like opening a can of worms that either calls for a lengthy discussion or becomes a conversation stopper.

You never know.

In our society, the genital region is taboo and working around this highly charged area is something most massage practitioners and bodyworkers just do not do. And I get it. I completely understand why groin and pelvic work isn’t all that popular with my fellow massage practitioners.


Let me put this out there: People truly need this type of elemental and integrative body work. So much of our culture’s stresses and long-term pains are held onto in the pelvic region.

Who knows if it began with the repressed way we’ve held things inside for generations, and it may date back to the whole formation of this great big crazy body of a country (the body inside our own minds, the body politic, the bodies of all these humans around us we come into contact with), but healing and release needs to happen more often.

Help You to Reconnect With Your Sensuality

If you are a mature women, youve already gone through many life changes and challenges. And there are times when you may wonder where your body’s resiliency and your energy went. As an expert massage practitioner based in Seattle, I can help you to discover what youre missing—by taking you emotionally and physically where others won’t go. After finding out which areas you’d like to improve on, we’ll move ahead and address long-buried issues and traumas.


Sexuality, body/mind connection, center of gravity, flowing sensuality.

With ongoing massage treatments you can add more flow and grounding in your pelvic area. In our massage session we’ll work to bring back core strength, to expand your ability to be stronger and more flexible. Our goal will be to free up the areas to help you to feel younger and more rejuvenated.


Areas than can be focused on include:

· Relieving pain

· Helping with overall movement

· Improving productivity

You don’t have to live with lower back and hip pain. Vitality and focus can be increased. It is possible to bring back more creativity and passion to your life. When your body begins to feel more flexible, you can better express yourself in daily life, in relationships, and in all areas of your life.
