History and Background of Hot Stone Massage

Introduction Massage is perhaps the oldest form of hands-on-healing known to humans, easily pre-dating written records. For millennia, people from virtually every culture have used a combination of touch, heat (thermotherapy) and stones as therapeutic tools. It's pretty safe to say that almost every culture has either used heat and/or stones to have some sort of healing effect on the body - whether it's using stones directly on the body like we do in a Hot Stone Massage, or indirectly, similar to a structure like Stonehenge affecting the body energetically.

The Importance of Swedish Massage

I often hear people (including therapists) say that Swedish Massage is ”Fluff Massage”. That is a very sad misnomer. Swedish Massage has very important therapeutic value. I cringe when I hear new therapists being encouraged to use extremely deep pressure when performing massage. It almost seems like a matter of pride. Sadly, some clinic and spa owners take advantage of this naivete. Unfortunately for both clients and therapists an emphasis seems to be placed on techniques that use deep pressure on the muscle tissue.

Safe and gentle yet profoundly effective, Ortho-Bionomy works "with" the body, stimulating inner awareness and the natural ability to move towards comfort and balance.

Emotions, thoughts and auras

Isn't is too often the case that when we're feeling strong emotions which distress us that we are also encountering negative thoughts about our personal dramas. Whether the thought or emotion comes first is not important. What's relevant is that emotions and thoughts are inter-related.

Chair massage professionals often like using predetermined chair massage routines when doing seated massage. Why?

Like many of the Eastern styles of massage, the techniques of Amma massage are applied in a systematic and sequential fashion. So as Palmer developed chair massage he carried that approach with him, referring to this approach as a "massage kata" rather than a massage routine.

Alte ative Options of Health

When it comes to the rehabilitation of accidents and injuries most medical providers think within the convention of physical therapy and pharmacology. When injuries occur nerve fibers in the muscle tissue tear, strain, overstretch and literally shorten. This shortening of the tissue impairs normal movement . Scar tissue forms as a natural agent of healing. Often times the scar tissue can adhere to surrounding tissue and joints creating a memory of lost function as well as structural impairment.
