Principles of Therapeutic
Massage
Holding Patterns- muscle
injury from physical trauma or prolonged stress creates "holding patterns" in
your body. A "Holding Patterns" is created when individual or groups of
muscles tighten together thus creating a "cast" to protect and reinforce the
injured muscle.
Circulation- chronic "holding
patterns" obstruct the circulation of blood, lymph, nerve impulse and bio-energy
(chi, ki) which is vital to body's ability to heal itself.
Therapy for healing and pain relief- specific
therapeutic massage techniques originating from Shiatsu, Deep Tissue massage, Acupressure,
physical therapy and bio-energy are utilized to release holding patterns thus increase
circulation, relieve pain, promote relaxation and induce healing. Who Can Benefit? Suffers
of back, neck and shoulder pain (from stress or injury). Sports, auto accident,
surgery scar tissue and repetitive strain (RSI) such as carpal tunnel syndrome type
injuries.
