How to optimize the benefits of a home massage

 

Take few minutes to prepare for your massage space and your mind. It will enhance your massage experience.

​

1. Try to start relaxing and unwinding before the massage appointment.

You can do this by having relaxing music on, taking a shower / bath or do a brief meditation if you like it.

 

2. Prepare a suitable space for the massage table.

I understand some houses has constricted spaces but if it is possible choose a quite area where you will not be disturbed by other people, children, pets or  phone calls  (Turn your phone off if it is possible).

 

3. Make sure temperature of the room is appropriate.

In winter you will cool down significantly during the massage so a comfortably warm room is desirable.

 

Bear in mind these are only suggestions and in some surroundings some of them are just not viable.

 

Michelle`s philosophy is to tailor her massage to make you comfortable.

Deep Tissue massage works on deep layers and reshapes the connective tissue that surrounds the muscles whilst Remedial massage concentrates on relieving the stresses within the muscles.

The process of the Deep Tissue Massage aims to restructure the muscular system by re-positioning muscles, tendons and ligaments that may have become bunched and shortened.

In addition to improved posture, other benefits include pain relief, increased energy and an improved sense of relaxation and wellbeing. It is both corrective and therapeutic. 

4. Trigger Point Therapy

There is growing evidence that a lot of our most common aches and pains are actually caused by trigger points. Trigger points are known to cause headaches, neck and jaw pain, low back pain and some other kinds of joint pain which may be mistakenly ascribed to arthritis, tendonitis, etc.

Trigger points usually send their pain to some other site. This is an extremely misleading phenomenon and is the reason conventional treatments for pain so often fail. It’s a mistake to assume that the problem is at the place that hurts!
