So what are ‘knots’? How do I fix them? Watch to find out!

Or if like me, 2 minutes 43 seconds is waaaay too long here’s the highlights…

Knots are glacially gummed up muscle or fascia from over or under movement.

Best way to fix them? Improve the flow of oxygen. Swedish massage or trigger point therapy do this with kneading or deep pressure over the area.

I do it with care and affection. Soothing strokes, sometimes light, sometimes deep, sometimes a bit of both, give your body permission and space to Stop Holding On. It also increases blood flow bringing oxygen to where it needs to be.

Simples!!

So Therapeutic Massage Awareness Day! A good time I feel to tell you a little bit about me and the way I work if you’ve not been to see me yet. I train with The 4Elements Company which provides tremendous support and excellent training and I absolutely love it!

If you’ve got any questions, I’d love to hear from you.

I’m too lazy this year to recreate the wheel, so for therapeutic massage awareness day, here is a flash back about the benefits of massage. Get in touch if you’d like to know more!

What better day than Therapeutic Massage Awareness Day to remind you of the benefits of massage…

Regular massage can, among other things -

🌟 Help improve sleep quality by helping you relax and switch off

🌟Reduce stress and anxiety

🌟 Ease muscular aches and pains by reducing muscle tension and stiffness

🌟 Stimulate lymphatic drainage

🌟 Boost the mood by releasing endorphins

If you’d like to know, please do send me a message. No question is a silly question!

Now another technique I really like, is this one focussing on the shoulder. Check out that traction at the start, bringing that shoulder right back, opening out the chest. This is great for helping improve posture, if you’re bent over a computer for work, use a phone a lot or larger busted ladies also find this one beneficial. It then moves into more traction paired with some soothing strokes along the upper arm, over the tops of the shoulders and coming around the back.

Absolutely delicious.

If I had to choose my absolute FAVOURITE massage technique, this one would win hands down.

I love using this in the early stage of a back massage. It connects me to such a large area of you all in one smooth hit. It provides you with deep, consistent pressure, soothing the nervous system and easing you into relaxation.

For me, this one is the technique that sets the tone for the rest of the treatment. I can feel a huge area over the back, pick up on areas of tension and determine where I need to focus on for extra attention.

Love, love, LOVE IT!!

Woohoooo I’m finally discharged from hand therapy!

For those who don’t know, I dislocated a finger last September but thanks to the wonders of my training with The 4Elements Company in zero strain massage, I’ve been able to continue working throughout. It has though, had a big impact on a lot of other things in my life.

To celebrate - who fancies a sneaky little discount? I’ve not got many spaces left this month, but if you’d like to fill one and try a CLOTHED massaged, then get in touch! For the rest of this month only, I’m offering 20% off clothed treatments.

Why clothed massage? Frankly because I love it and it’s an underrated treatment. It’s a great entry way into massage if you’re a bit unsure about the whole experience or if you just don’t want to get oil in your hair.

What a beautiful way to start the day!

After a pretty rubbish nights sleep, I decided to blow the cobwebs away before starting day 2 of training today. On the prom at 7am was the right thing for me today.

Hope you all have a wonderful day, whatever you’re doing.
