Air-conditioned massage in Seattle

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009 | Featured, Massage, Seattle | No Comments

I bow down to the SEO gods and post this to my Fellow Seattleites:

If you are in pain and needing some good deep tissue massage… I have AC in my massage office.

Massage is like zen warrior voodoo prayer in the heat.

All I can concentrate on is

the tissue in my hands,

the body that is on my table

and the safekeeping of my client’s emotional and mental states.

Beautiful massage.  I give beautiful massage in this weather.

The cranio-sacral massage in the heat is momentous. The Myo-fascial fibers especially, are affected. The  holding and tension patterns that create the alignment in a given body relaxes with greater ease in the heat.

This is significant because in Seattle it is often cold and wet.  The body’s tissues get smaller and denser when the outside temp is cold.  The dampness of our weather also makes me think of the wet/cold “cutting to the bone”  a sensation I am grateful not to have right now.  These cold-induced sensations cause the body to tense up.

Warm weather heats up our deep tissues.   This heat is GREAT for bodywork.  I’m getting some really great results with some clients today who have especially tight and knotted shoulders.

I concentrated mostly on her right shoulder.  I was able to gently and yet quite deeply reduce the density and irregularity of the adhesion in her shoulder by pressing my fingertips, from two different angles, into the space between her ribs and her right shoulder blade.

I usually cannot reach into her sub-scapular area with such ease.  It was rather fulfilling, I must say.

Yay, heat.

I’m still glad I have AC.

Depressed? It May Be Your Diet

Thursday, May 28th, 2009 | Health | No Comments

Studies show that food allergies and intolerances to common foods can cause emotional instability due to chemical imbalance.

For myself, I know I have intolerance to gluten and wheat, but I don’t have Celiac disease.

Like most people, I’ll slip in my diet when I’m stressed or when I have no food options other than wheat-based foods.

I strive to keep my health in good physical and emotional condition, so it’s easy to notice when I do slip.  After last week’s stressful running around, I found myself letting off steam this weekend and I ate pizza.  It was yummy.

On Monday, I cried several times, feeling overwhelmed by life, and finding it difficult to motivate myself and challenging to switch my thoughts from negative to positive.

When my diet is clean, I find I am more productive, more positive and enthusiastic in every area of my life.

All I have to do is cut out food products with wheat in them, and my overall energy improves and I feel so much better about life.

Poke around the Internet to find studies on the effects of wheat on an allergic system.  Chemical balance and imbalance cannot be denied.

And if doing the research doesn’t convince you, try this experiment: Change your diet long enough to notice the difference. Cut out just wheat or just corn or just soy…and pay close attention to how your life changes…especially after you put the particular type of food you chose to cut out back into your diet.

Massage can empower you and change your life

Everyone has ongoing body stress/pain problems from living in the modern world—too much screen time in front of computers, lack of exercise (or bodily stress from too much exercise), and injuries sustained from accidents. When you receive a professional massage treatment, your body responds immediately, and with therapeutic massage—in the days and weeks afterwards, your body responds with its natural healing abilities.

Massage therapy is personal, intense, and intimate. You open yourself to a professional massage practitioner, and when the fit is right, you develop on of the most important things in life—a healing relationship.

Every person’s body and life story is unique, and you deserve a massage experience, not just a massage.

I take the time to understand what pains and stresses your body has, and I’ll respond
to your specific needs. I don’t give cookie cutter massages.

My goal with each client is to not only give you what you ask for, but to deliver an even better treatment than you were expecting—based on my experience, talent, and skills.

Are you ready for what you need?
