My 'style' of Relaxation Massage (Copy)

Several of you recently asked me about my 'style' of relaxation massage:

For relaxation therapies (when pain is not present), I adopt a style suited for the client's request, using my reflexology, hot stones and thai massage training. In practice, it looks like a medium pressure massage that flows over the whole body in a very continuous manner, seldom breaking contact with the body. I vary the rhythm and pressure to keep the sensation interesting, and I take extra time for the feet and hands, back of neck and sacrum. We will also work together to do some deep breathing. I also frequently move and stretch the arms, legs and neck. Clients enjoy this integration of breathe, massage, and movement.  Most come back because my style is very different from other massages they have received.  

My style looks a lot like Lomi Lomi, a style from Hawaii which can be viewed in the video link below:

(I do use sheets to cover my clients unlike this demo)

The sensation of calm and the flow of movement allows the client to sink into a deep relaxation level where their body can receive new information in their nervous system. I work with your nervous system to change how you feel. We often get stuck in chronic tension or continuous pain which leads the changing our movement patterns and functionally 'forgetting' other the sense of relaxation. With new or different information, the nervous system can return to more relaxed state and easier movement patterns.

When a client has pain I use a different style (Orthopedic Massage) that assesses the injured tissue and adopts techniques to facilitate the process of healing. I will post on that soon. . .

Happy Easter Spring Day!

Why I use coconut oil for massage: (Copy)

There are many options oils and lotions for therapists to use, and I use coconut oil.

Why?

It is light and absorbs in the skin well leaving no oily after feeling. 

It is healthy for skin as a moisturizer, and may have some antibacterial and anti fungal qualities. 

No fragrances so you won't walk out smelling like roses.  Well, maybe coconut cookies . . . .j/k.

No chemicals that are harsh on the skin.

No deep stains on my sheets requiring extra chemicals or bleach to clean (environmental benefit).

It's edible like play doh and silly putty . . . two of my favorite toys.  

Be Well,  Jesse

Indian Deep Tissue Detox and Reflexology (Copy)

In each of my sessions I mix my technique to respond to what the client needs that day.  You can say each massage is customized.  Many of my clients request deeper, slow work that brings emotional and physical relaxation.

Over the holiday I traveled to India for a month to have fun, and to study a new technique.  I was an amazing trip for adventure and learning. 

I completed a two week intensive course in Ayurvedic Massage (deep tissue detox and foot reflexology) taught by Dr. Rekha, MD Ayurveda. The technique, called Abhyanga, is used to treat metabolic disease (not neuro-muscular pain).

This massage is part of the cleansing protocols of Ayurveda. Ayurvedic medicine is the traditional, natural medicine in India, with over 2000 years of development.

The ancient technique is fast and vigorous, covering the entire body in an hour.  It uses special oils for your dosha, and is followed by a steam or infrared heat sweating session. Blood and lymph circulation are elevated.

This a great choice to elevate circulation and when you are embracing other changes (diet, exercise, ect. to cleanse).  I am happy to speak with you about if it is right and how to maximize it's effectiveness.  

As a traditional medicine therapy there many 'claimed' benefits.  Some may be a strech, but it certainly feels amazing and gets your tissue, lymph and blood warmed up.  The reported benefits include:

• Produces softness, strength and color to the body • Decreases the effects of aging • Bestows good vision • Nourishes the body • Increases longevity • Benefits sleep patterns • Benefits skin • Strengthens the body's tolerance • Imparts a firmness to the limbs • Imparts tone and vigor to the dhatus (tissues) of the body • Stimulates the internal organs of the body, including circulation • Pacifies Vata and Pitta and harmonizes Kapha

For the first few months of 2016 I would like to offer this specialized technique at $45 for a full 60 minutes.  

Breath deep & Hug more often,
