Modality Monday on a Tuesday (cause it's basically everyone's Monday this week)
Let's talk about lymph! Manual lymphatic drainage massage is a very light touch and rhythmic massage used to help reduce edema and get your lymphatic system pumping. A great therapy for post surgery, helping the body to heal and limit the build-up of scar tissue and inflammation. Helps to stimulate your sluggish immune system if you suffer from frequent colds or allergies. Assists the skin cosmetically by removing toxins from skin cells and improving lymphatic circulation (some people even report improvement with cellulite and acne) Helps the mind by triggering the parasympathetic nervous system: relax muscles, decrease heart and breath rate and promotes balance.

Let's face it, your body goes through a lot of changes in preparation for baby. Hormones take an upswing signaling to all your other body functions to start the change. Muscles, ligaments and bones all start shifting around to make room. Circulatory, respiratory and urinary systems go in to overdrive. Soreness, congestion, mood swings, headaches, varicose veins, not to mention the mental stresses of raising a child all make themselves known. Basically, you can benefit greatly from a massage during pregnancy. Let me take some of the load off by relaxing those tense muscles and easing the mind, so you can better enjoy the more pleasant side of pregnancy πŸ«„

Modality Monday!!

Let's talk about TMJ Dysfunction. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the most active joint in the body, being used as much as 2000 times in a day and can exert 200 pounds of force. Most patients diagnosed with this disorder are women (95%). Common beliefe for this is the stiffling of emotions resulting in clinched jaws. Because of this, there tend to be a lot of emotions tied into the jaw, and emotional release is fairly common. Trauma to the jaw, stress, grinding the teeth, and even postural issues can all be attributed to a TMJD diagnosis. Resulting in pain, headaches, tinnitus, vision problems, an 'off bite', and even locking of the jaw when left untreated. And wouldn't you know it, massage can be a big help! By working on the surrounding muscles of the neck, shoulders, back, and chest, postural stress can be reduced. Time spent on the head, face, and inside the mouth can greatly improve range of motion, ease pain, and even help correct the bite.

Welcome to my new segment, Modality Monday!
Each week, I'll give a little bit of information on a massage technique that I offer and hopefully introduce you to a new modality for you to try out at your next session.

This week, I give you Cupping therapy. An ancient healing technique made popular most recently in the athletic community. Not just for athletes, though, this therapy boasts many therapeutic benefits that everyone can enjoy. Clients have already reported reduced pain, better range of motion, and regaining feelings in areas of numbness.

Want to try it out for yourself? Message me directly, give us a call or schedule online at wildrootsastoria.com (look for the cupping add-on when booking)
