Encouraging us to become more inspired by our bodies, to bring awareness to where we hold tension and explore ways of releasing stagnant energy. To promote different exercises and educate around dysfunction in the body. Explaining how the body is a series of levers and pulleys - tension shifts from an injured area to a completely different part of the body as a adaptation for survival. Demystifyin
g stretching and strength training. Bespoke exercise regimes created to maximize strength and recovery for athletic goals or simply to stretch the appropriate muscles holding tensions created in in day to day living. What a typical Massage Session looks like:
A 5 min consultation to find out about your injury and the your medical history. Then you are on the table for 50 minutes. I encourage my clients to communicate with me so that we can figure out where the source of the pain is- often where the pain is manifesting is not the origin. Starting with gentle warming and kneading strokes we gradually work deeper accessing what muscles are compensating for the injury. Using very deep strokes, trigger point and myofascial release to loosen knots in the fascia ( the connective tissue that binds everything together in the body), reducing tension and restoring balance. I use a number scale to gauge the pressure and get feedback from you as we play detective- there is nothing worse than a massage that is not deep enough or else one than is painful! Post massage we spend about 10 minutes 'geeking out' on muscles, - which ones' to target, why and how. Giving you a functional understanding of what is happening in your body. I give and demonstrate stretching and strengthening exercises that are going to help you continue to recover and get stronger. ( Please note that if you would like a comprehensive fully body massage I recommend booking 80 min or 110minutes.)
