Bridging The Gap: Theraputic Massage and Body Work

These pictures only show a fraction of what I feel before and after sessions....

Massage has benefits for both kyphosis and scoliosis! This client is being treated for her kyphosis, and these are just a few before and afters I've been able to capture 🥰

This requires consistent correction through body work, movements and stretching, and chiropractic care.

Always remember to LOOK UP and keep your spine in a NEUTRAL position as often as possible 💖 You can find more resources on YouTube or ask your fellow health care practitioners.

Show your love a little differently this year 💖

A new study finds the key role of bone in regulating the fight or flight response. In response to alarm signals from the brain, nerves within bone release osteocalcin, which immediately lowers the parasympathetic "brake" and lets the fight or flight response take over!

https://m.phys.org/news/2019-09-bone-adrenaline-flight-response.html

This research is no surprise to anyone that studies or works with fascia, the connective tissue network of the body that is especially dense around the muscles. Fascia is known to play a huge role in the fight or flight nervous system and is also continuous with bone.

Although we think of bone as "solid," 20% of it is actually water, and electrical charges and movement of this water transmits mechanical messages through bone, just like it does through fascia. In fact some scientists call bone "mineralized fascia."

According to a recent review article, "bone is part of the fascial continuum...that constantly transmits and receives mechano-metabolic information." https://www.cureus.com/articles/16943-bone-tissue-is-an-integral-part-of-the-fascial-system

It is fascinating to see how scientists are unravelling the complex interplay between the nervous and musculoskeletal systems!

Know Your Worth 💖

A giant ship's engine broke down and no one could repair it, so they hired a Mechanical Engineer with over 30 years of experience.
He inspected the engine very carefully, from top to bottom. After seeing everything, the engineer unloaded his bag and pulled out a small hammer.
He knocked something gently. Soon, the engine came to life again. The engine has been fixed!
A week later the engineer mentioned to the ship owner that the total cost of repairing the giant ship was $20,000.
"What?!" said the owner. “You did almost nothing. Give us a detailed bill."
The Engineer replied him “The answer is simple:”
Tap with a hammer: $2
Know where to knock and how much to knock: $19,998
The importance of appreciating one's expertise and experience...because those are the results of struggles, experiments and even tears.
If I do a job in 30 minutes it's because I spent 20 years learning how to do that in 30 minutes. You owe me for the years, not the minutes.

Here's another tid-bit!

** CUPPING THERAPY OVER LOAD **
What is cupping?

Cupping is a form therapy that has been used as Eastern medicine for over 5,000 years. It decompresses soft tissues using vacuum suction, unlike other forms of massage that compresses soft tissues. The suction pulls stagnant blood to the surface which then breaks capillaries and allows new blood to filter through the system bringing more oxygen and white blood cells.
It also helps to break down scar tissue and underlying fascia.

One of THE most interesting studies in my opinion that no one is talking about.

Keep in mind that our bodies are a majority water!! This video, is incredible!

We live in a fast paced, high demand society. STRESS is unknowingly a main contributor to a lot of health issues!

These were a couple very insightful articles that show the direct physiological effects of the emotion-body connection.

* WHIP LASH *

I have a personal experience with whiplash and concussion after a car accident. After seeing a doctor, I was told to go home and take ibuprofen, that everything was fine.
It was NOT fine. I couldn't be around lights, or sounds, I couldn't think or function. Daily tasks were made impossible.

If it wasn't for the team at Back In Action Chiropractic and massage therapy, I would still be in chronic pain and being told to take pills to make me feel better. Living a life like that is not life at all. I am forever grateful for my healthcare team!!! 🙏

Trigger point therapy and craniosacral therapy are two of the massage modalities that helped my healing and recovery process. If you or someone you know have suffered from these injuries, please know that there ARE ways to heal through massage therapy and chiropractic care 💕

An Idea Worth Spreading 💕
Research worth doing

My career is so much more than a luxury muscle massage.

I'm sure you will be seeing more from their page 🥰 I just love their educational posts and they have the most phenomenal doctors on their team.

Taking care of yourself and creating healthy habits each day can prevent most headaches. If you find yourself reaching for over-the-counter pain medications more than once per week, you may be putting yourself at risk for rebound headaches. Most headache medications aren't designed to be used frequently because they simply address the symptoms, not the cause of the problem. As you take medication, your body can become sensitized, meaning you need to take more medication to achieve the same result. This can lead to a downward spiral and cycle of chronic rebound headaches. Here are a few ways to naturally reduce your risk of headaches.

I am not certified in this technique yet; it is on my continued education goals sheet 🙏
I just wanted you guys to know it's out there. It's absolutely incredible!!
