WHAT IS ISCHEMIC COMPRESSION AND HOW DOES IT HELP?

Ischemic compression is a technique where I apply focused steady pressure to a tight or painful muscle knot (also called trigger point). It might feel a little tender at first- but as I hold the pressure, the muscle softens and the pain starts to ease.

WHY DOES ISCHEMIC PRESSURE WORK?
When I apply pressure to the trigger point, it briefly restricts blood flow and when the pressure is release, fresh blood rushes back in.

Trigger points are often overactive nerve signals causing the muscle to spasm or stay tight and holding pressure helps interrupt that signal, telling the muscle it can let go.

Ischemic compression helps reset the dysfunctional spot in the muscle and clients often feel less pain, more range of motion, and better alignment afterward.

WHEN DO I USE ISCHEMIC PRESSURE?
I use it during neuromuscular therapy when I find a trigger point thats referring pain or limiting movement. It's a powerful way to calm overworked areas- especially when you're dealing with chronic tension or nerve related pain.

Dealing with chronic pain? Try Neuromuscular Therapy and I will use this technique to help you!

WHAT I'VE LEARNED FROM MY CLIENTS

PAIN IS PERSONAL- two people can have the same issue but their experience is totally different; my clients remind me to never assume or generalize

PEOPLE JUST WANT TO BE HEARD- I've learned that listening is just as important as technique. Often, pain eases when someone feels truly seen!

PEOPLE CRAVE A CONNECTION, NOT A SERVICE- the best sessions come from trust, relationship, and presence.

HEALING IS A PARTNERSHIP, NOT A FIX- my clients taught me that I don't fix anyone - I support their body's own ability to heal!

Thank you for teaching me what it means to serve YOU!

If we haven't met yet, I'd love to change that. Here's a little get to know me moment so you can see who's behind the massage table.

Every massage session I give is something I pour myself into- and I thought it was time to let you get to know me a little better, too!

What if you had one hour a week where the world didn't need anything from you? Imagine waking up without tension gripping your neck. It's time to try regular massage for even just one hour a month to experience that stress relief and eliminate neck tension. What are you waiting for?
