What is Therapeutic Massage?

6/18/2019

0 Comments

 
A therapeutic massage means you present to the therapist with a specific complaint, for instance, pain in your hip, tight shoulders, or a spasm in your lower back (or even all three). The therapist then follows four steps:
  1. Assess your current condition.
    • This will include taking a history, asking how long have you experienced the pain, whether the onset was sudden, how you experience the pain, etc. The therapist will also observe the way you move, test your range of motion, and feel the tissue during the treatment for consistency and texture.
  2. Propose a plan. 
    • Once the therapist has a good idea of your condition, he can propose an approach to treatment. This might be a simple as focusing on your area of complaint — shoulders, lower back and right hip — instead of trying to do a full-body massage during one session. The therapist might recommend a series of sessions at recommended intervals and indicate the kind of progress you can expect during that time. She can recommend other ways of treating the area, such as using heat, ice, hydrotherapy, or stretches. If appropriate, the therapist might refer you to another health professional for further assessment and treatment. 
  3. Perform the therapy.
    • This is the actual massage, or treatment, based on the assessment and the plan you have agreed to. 
  4. Evaluate the outcome. 
    • At the end of the treatment, you and the therapist review the results. Is the pain less? Is there more mobility in the joint? Has your posture improved? On the basis of the results, the therapist can recommend additional sessions and the frequency. If you come every week, for instance, you'll see quicker progress than if you wait two or three weeks between sessions. An evaluation will take place at the end of each session to determine the continued course of therapy. ​

What is Reflexology ? by Earl Bakken

Reflexology is the application of appropriate pressure to specific points and areas on the feet, hands, or ears. Reflexologists believe that these reflex points correspond to different body organs and systems, and that pressing them creates real benefits for the person's health.
For example, reflexology holds that a specific spot in the arch of the foot corresponds to the bladder. When a reflexologist uses thumbs or fingers to apply appropriate pressure to this area, it may affect bladder functioning.

What is Reiki by Annie Daly

4/24/2019

Just like cupping  or healing crystals, Reiki is having a moment in the wellness world right now.
But even though the practice has infiltrated your Instagram feed and brunch circles, you might still be wondering what it is exactly (errrr, is it like acupuncture—or yoga, maybe?).

So yeah, what is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese spiritual healing technique in which practitioners can help your body heal itself through touch. “Rei” translates to “universe” or “life force,” and “ki” translates to the physical energy of the body (also known as qi); put together, Reiki translates to “universal life force energy.”
That means the job of a Reiki practitioner is to help your body work its own healing magic. "We don’t consider ourselves healers, because the body is its own healer,” explains Brian Brunius, a New York City-based Reiki master. “The process of giving Reiki to someone is the process of giving them even more of the life energy that they already have—so we just give the body the extra energy to do with it what it will.”
In the modern world, he explains, we’re all running around on empty, with just enough energy to get through what we have to do every day—meaning there’s not a lot of energy left over for your body to work on maintenance, repair, and deeper healing. “And so when you give your body extra energy, it takes that energy and uses it how it wants to, likely for deeper healing,” Brunius explains.

Wait, how it Reiki actually done?
During a Reiki session—which can last anywhere from half an hour to nearly two hours, depending on where you go—you sit on a massage table, fully clothed and covered with a sheet and/or blankets, and a practitioner lightly rests his or her hands on (or hovers them over) various parts of your body where energy is said to flow the most.
The hand positions are designed to cover three main areas: your major organs, your major chakras, and your major meridians (energy pathways). These areas can be found all over the body, so Reiki practitioners may touch or hover above your head, extremities, midsection, and feet. During a session, patients tend to fall into a trancelike state where they have incredibly lucid dreams (a.k.a., "Reiki sleep), says Brunius.
