It’s not always possible, but always try to schedule your massage appointments at times when you can relax afterwards. The idea behind this is to prolong your sense of deep relaxation for as long as possible. 🍵📚️

Listen to your body. If you feel like having a nap, then nap!. If you feel like curling up under a blanket and reading a book, do it. If you want to stretch out on the sofa and watch reruns of favorite show, indulge. This is your time to recover, repair and re-tune yourself.

The quadratus lumborum muscles, or QLs for short, are found on either side of the lumbar spine (lower back) and are important core muscles that help stabilise the lower back.

They essentially connect the lower spine to the pelvis and assist with movements like side bending and raising the hip. Stretching is a helpful way to release tension and pain. So, don't forget to carve out a little time and give yourself a stretch today! 🧘🏼

Touch can be deeply healing for the whole body 🙌⁠
⁠
Touch is one of the first senses you develop after birth, and plays an important role in cognitive and behavioral development.⁠
⁠The importance of touch extends far longer than infancy & childhood. Research into the sensory input supports healing from injury, pain reduction and immune function.⁠
⁠
Touch also increases levels of serotonin & oxytocin, allowing us to connect to ourselves and others and is a fundamental part of being a human and can be used to support the nervous system, mind & body and build safe & soothing connections.⁠ 🤝

Expel Stress With Deep Breathing! 🌬️

When your neck’s feeling sore, one of the best feelings in the world is having expert hands slowly ease all that tension out.👐🏼

Having those lines of tight muscle softened and lengthened, & gently returning movement where the vertebrae have become stuck while lifting the head away from the shoulders is MAGICAL.

Massage is helpful no matter what caused the neck stiffness- and after treatment, patients often comment they even feel taller! Try it for yourself✨

Massage therapy can help to strengthen and stabilise muscles, and improve posture and shoulder position. Deep tissue massage and trigger point massage therapy are particularly beneficial for shoulder pain, working to relieve tension along the nerve pathways of the neck and shoulder. 🌿

No need to rush in or out! 👐🏼

Set yourself up for success by protecting the time before, during and after your scheduled massage. Consider scheduling your appointment with a time buffer prior to and after the session to allow you to prepare for and fully benefit from the massage in which you’ve invested time, money, and energy. This is key to allowing yourself to sink into your most relaxed state.

Patients can maximize benefits in between sessions at home by staying informed and being proactive.💚

Be engaged in the experience, especially when your therapist is targeting specific pain trouble spots. Notice what’s happening, and ask your therapist what you can do at home to reinforce the work they’re doing and the progress you’re making. Our therapists will give you strategies—either by using your own hands or a tool like a tennis ball—to access the trigger points, or self-awareness tips to help you hold the work between therapy sessions.
