Sometimes, the only way to recharge is to disconnect. I spent the most amazing time w the most amazing people at the most amazing place. feels like home, every single time I go. I set my tent up by the brook and woke up to bubbling water every morning. I couldn't have asked for a better recharge. Thanks Craig, for hosting us and for being such an amazing bro.

Doing massage, I push all day long. To counter the toll on my body, I come here to pull. Though the cool part is it's a lot of legs! Also, what I need because my hips are always super tight. So it's a perfect workout for me.

When my Mom, fell and broke her wrist, there was only one physical therapist I trustedwith her. I made sure she went to so that she could heal quickly, get moving, and get back out there. She's up and moving and has full use of her hands, to the point that the Dr has said she has healed very quickly. Also, apparently my mom's dog, Athena, loves him too.
Thank you, brother. I appreciate what you've done for my family.

Contact me to book a session at VFE Pasadena. I'm here to help you maintain the machine that is your body.

Running. It’s a sport. It’s something VFE for years has continued to grill in people’s heads. You are in a sport. Treat running like a sport. This means, treat yourself as an athlete. Your coaches, which you should have, are most likely telling you, “it’s cold out. Get good rest. Stay hydrated in this cold. You’re closer to the end of this training cycle. Be smart and stick with the plan. Take it day by day.”

If you’re not hearing this from a coach or not knowledgeable to provide yourself this self talk? Then I highly suggest booking that session with VFE soon. The biggest part of any sport and training is mental. “Massage” is just one modality we provide in our treatment sessions at VFE. The client & athlete is worked with in every dynamic. Sometimes it’s not all glam in the session. In fact, it rarely is, but it’s the results and outcomes that are our goal with you.

Steven will provide the above and more! DM him or here to schedule at the VFE Pasadena office. Stay ahead of the game!

Recently I was asked about the different types of massage and what they do. It made me realize that many people don't k ow the differences and what to expect from each type. So, I've decided to give a light breakdown so that when you do book a massage you're coming in w some knowledge of what to expect. Here it goes.

Massage type; what it is; how to dress.

Swedish (classic); long fluid strokes, kneading, chopping of muscular tissue to promote blood flow, promote healing, decrease soreness and release toxins, med to light pressure ; Usually done n**e (w draping/covering) or w underwear on (though bras can get in the way). No jewelry.

Deep tissue: focused massage for adhesions (knots) in the muscle. Can be paired w most massage but I've found that Swedish goes really well w it. Med to heavier pressure.; clothing depends on massage type but, again, Swedish goes well w it.

Sports massage: quicker strokes meant to promote blood flow, relieve soreness, tonify tissue, and promote muscular healing, med pressure; underwear/shorts and sports bra is fine.

Shiatsu; acupressure along meridians, stretches and joint mobilization, balancing of chi/Xi (life force), meant to rebalance energy in the body to help the body heal and promote overall wellness. Med to light pressure; clothes on.

Thai: joint mobilization, heavy on stretches, energy work, med to heavier pressure (some people complain that it hurts though if done right I find it doesn't), clothes on or off though shorts and bra is good.

Lymphatic drainage: very light massage along the lymphatic system to promote the moving and release of waste and toxins in the body and bloodstream. Light pressure; Clothes off.

Reflexology (hand or foot): acupressure and massage of the hand or feet to promote healing and re-balancing of systems and organs in the body. Med to light pressure ; clothes on.

There are more types of lesser known massage but ill save those for another day. I hope this helped! Have a great one!!!
