Benefits of Massage

Regular massage is one of the most practical ways to manage everyday stress and muscle tension. Clients most often tell me they notice:

  • Feeling more relaxed and less stressed
  • Easier, more comfortable movement
  • Less muscle tension and soreness
  • Better sleep after their sessions
  • Support for recovery after workouts and athletic events
  • Relief from tension built up by desk work, driving or repetitive tasks

Research on massage therapy continues to grow, particularly for low-back pain, stress and anxiety. Massage is not a substitute for medical care. If you are being treated for a health condition, please tell me before your session, and check with your healthcare provider if you are unsure whether massage is right for you.

So, I’ve been doing some of my own research on the craze called CBD oil. It seems that everywhere you look, someone is selling CBD this or CBD that to get rid of pain, inflammation, arthritis, cancer, acne, your ex..(just kidding..) But really, why all this excitement? Is there anything really to it? Well, what I have found out is… yes and no. Yes, there actually may be something to all the hype. Some studies have shown benefits such as a decrease in muscle soreness, decrease in inflammation (which coincidentally is also why some use the product to help with acne symptoms), decrease in pain associated with arthritis and cancer, and   alleviate insomnia to some degree. It does all this by binding to certain neurotransmitter receptor cites in the brain that are very similar to the CBD since the body already produces something almost the same as CBD chemically. Great news, right? Not so fast, buckwheat… The no side is there isn’t enough hard research out there to p...

How do I find the right massage therapist?

A reader asked how to find a good massage therapist. Thanks for asking! When you're looking for a good therapist, there are several questions to ask yourself first: Why are you looking? Muscle aches and pains? Trouble sleeping? Swelling? Where? Do you want to go somewhere, or would you rather have someone come to you? Who? Do you prefer a male or female therapist? How much pressure? Light, medium, or deeper work? Different therapists have different skill sets and different ability levels. Even someone with a great deal of experience isn't necessarily the right therapist for you. As for how to find one: Google reviews and Yelp help, but one of the best ways is to ask your friends. We all know word of mouth is the best advertising. When you find a therapist, make sure they're licensed and that their license is current. My Tennessee license number is 874. You can look up any therapist by name or license number on the Tennessee Department of Health's license v...
