MASSAGE HELPS RELEASE DOPAMINE.

Dopamine is a feel good hormone that the body releases when we are engaged in activities we enjoy. However, it can reinforce behaviours in us that are addictive and that lead to compulsive habits as we keep seeking more pleasure. We develop unhealthy ways to get a dopamine hit. These are habits and compulsions such as scrolling on social media, eating foods, drinking alcohol, taking drugs and shopping. Today it seems people are suffering with anxiety, stress and depression more than ever and it doesn't really help that we live in a world that is full of distractions and quick fixes to try and make ourselves feel better.

You will be glad to know that massage helps to release dopamine, as it works to stimulate the nervous system and to shift it from a state of "fight to flight" to "rest and digest". This reduces cortisol, which is a stress hormone and increases serotonin. Serotonin is what regulates our mood and ability to be calm.

Massage activates the Vagus Nerve which slows down our heart rate, lowers our blood pressure and sends signals to the brain to stop producing stress hormones. It promotes physical relaxation by reducing muscular tension and adhesions.

Pressure applied to the skin activates pressure receptors that send signals to the brain to increase dopamine and serotonin and the increase in blood flow stimulates the autonomic nervous system to produce more neurotransmitters that send signals to reduce pain, lower stress and improve the mood.

If you have neck pain radiating down from your neck and over the shoulder, into your arm and perhaps even causing pain in the region of your first two ribs and your upper traps, then it could be your scalenes.

Scalenes are a group of 3 pairs of muscles in the lateral side of the neck. They originate in the cervicle spine vertebrae and insert into the first and second ribs.

This pain can be caused by whiplash, excessive coughing and in people that suffer with asthma, it can be caused by gasping of air, bronchitis and pneumonia.

Any repetitive movements that involve pulling and lifting with your arms level with the waist- such as pushing a wheel barrow as well as doing certain exercises at the gym, but not using the proper form can cause strain in the neck muscles.

If you work at a desk for long periods of time with your head held to one side, sleeping on your stomach with your head turned to one side, carrying heavy backpacks and wearing a tight collar or a tie can all cause pain and stiffness in these neck muscles.

A deep tissue treatment that targets the scalenes can help in relieving the pain and tension and allow for more movement of the neck.

Life is full of emotional ups and downs. When we experience lower or negative emotions, it's very difficult for us to allow ourselves to properly FEEL them. Most people will just learn to cope with them, distract themselves from them or numb them. These emotions then become repressed and stored in our body and are re-experienced in the form of physical pain.
So, its important to actually allow our emotions to flow through us. To see them as moving energy that just wants to be felt and not resisted.
When we can “be with our emotions”, we open up the flow of energy. We can see that we aren't our emotions and we need not be afraid of them.

Next time you go for a massage, notice what feelings come up. A massage that is working into the deeper layers of tissue can help release trapped emotions and help in healing both the mind and the body.

The most common kind of pain I deal with as a massage therapist, is back pain. A lot of the times clients will have obvious physical reasons for the back pain, like having a desk job or repetitive heavy lifting.
But as a person who is deeply curious about the connection between mind body and spirit, I cant help but wonder what else could be contributing to a persons pain.

I recently found out that the spine is the first structure that forms inside the womb and that then all our limbs and the rest of our body takes root. The spine is what supports us from behind.

Today we live in a culture where we are obsessed with moving forward with material goals and achievements. We live inside our heads. We have our heads buried in our phones or other devices, which causes what we call "tech neck". Our heads thrust forward and our spine is thrown out of alignment. We have little body awareness and so are disconnected to our spine.
In the Yoga tradition, we place a lot of focus on the spinal column. It's seen as a conduit for spiritual energy and we consciously direct this energy up our spine, for the purposes of spiritual growth and evolution.

Could we heal our back pain by bringing more awareness to our backs? So that it doesn't have to grab our attention through pain instead? Or maybe it's not as simple as that. Maybe, it's time to properly connect to the parts of ourselves that are hidden or are in the subconscious? In psychology the back is what is considered to be part of the unconscious.
I feel that we ought to spend more time in our bodies, than our heads and learn to be properly"embodied", so that we are rooted and grounded in our bodies, where we can be supported and feel safe to reach our goals and make progress in our lives.

In most cases back pain is actually caused by emotional tension. If we were to do the work to explore this tension, the more we would reveal about the pain we are experiencing. Anger, Fear, Denial..are all hidden in our backs!

Repressed emotions will find a way to express themselves as pain in the body. when we go for a massage, these emotions will resurface. As the tension in the muscles starts to release, so do the emotions. So next time you go for a deep tissue massage, notice how you feel over the next few days and try to "be with" any difficult emotions that arise, so they can be properly felt and released. And thats how you can heal some of those long held emotional wounds.

ITS COMING!! 😁

The ability to concentrate and have a pure awareness are things that a person needs to master if that person is at all to make any progress on the spiritual path. Its too easy nowadays to have your mind be entangled with thoughts, to be distracted, to have your attention divided between too many things.When we live this way, our awareness is tied up and can only access thoughts that come from our limited personality. A regular meditation practice helps to cultivate a more heightened awareness and a perception of the spiritual planes. With discernment one can differentiate then between thoughts that come from the limited personality self and thoughts that flow from the realms of spirit.
