Most of the time, where you feel the pain isn't the origin of the pain. Case in point, a client's neck seized up over the weekend causing her to seek help in urgent care but they couldn't really help.

She spent the weekend rolling on a tennis ball looking for trigger points to release. By Sunday evening, her pain was reduced by 65% and she located the root of her pain in the right shoulder blade area.

Chronic pain is not always caused by injured tissue, but because the brain becomes overly sensitized to pain, and anticipates and perpetuates the feeling of pain as a result.

...to get a massage. Massage alleviates the stress you put on your neck when looking down while using tech devices for long periods of time. Time to stop headaches, neck stiffness and spasms; time to "uncrank" those cranky shoulder joints!

...that during your massage, there are 3 people in the room during your session?? Me, you, and your body. Many times, your body has a mind of its own and my job is to tune my hands into what your body is conveying! Many clients discover they had sore/painful/knotted up areas that they weren't aware of.

(OA=osteoarthritis). Woohoo 🎉
