A major concern is to realize and deal with the effects of stress. Massage Therapy makes us aware of how and where stress manifests itself in the form of tension in our bodies. Too much stress in our lives causes constant muscular tension. This tension or tightness reduces the flow of energy. This energy may be in the form of blood and oxygen, nerves, lymph supply, or the major energy within us; Life Force or "Qi" (pronounced "chee" in Chinese or "kee" in Japanese). Reducing this flow, leads to feelings of fatigue, heaviness, density in some areas, reduced flexibility and range of motion in the joints. It increases the likelihood of strain and injury. It also leads to build-up of toxins in the body. Generally, blocked energy is felt as aches and pains but, can eventually lead to a wide range of more serious problems. Massage can, with the help of the client, release this tension and allow the body's own energy to heal itself. Very often, old injuries and habits can still be causing compensatory imbalance in musculoskeletal alignment.

Our external environment is often seen as the cause of stress. However, the environment's ability to affect any individual stressfully is more often than not, determined by the individual's attitude or mind set.

How Can Massage Therapy Help You?
Many of today's health problems arise from stress. Because stress upsets the delicate integral balance of all your body's functions, regaining this balance requires a holistic approach.

Massage Therapy not only treats those parts of you which are a problem, but also affects the whole of your metabolism through normalizing your circulatory, muscular and nervous systems and their interdependent functioning.

Massage Therapy is safe and effective when used for stress management, but it is also widely used to help obtain relief from many specific problems, including the following:

leg aches
neuritis/heuralgia
tendonitis/bursitis
digestive/lower bowel problems
neck & shoulder pain

post injury rehabilitation
whiplash
respiratory problems
arthritis
low back pain
circulatory problems
migraines

Massage can benefit people of all ages and conditions -- babies, children, pregnant women, the elderly, and those in chronic care.
