TRIGGER POINT MASSAGE
Many think that stretching is the solution to muscular problems, but this may be one of the many myths. You may need micro circulation in the muscles that affect your lack of mobility..let me explain.
I use trigger acu points to release muscle tightness that prevent you from moving with ease. Although you may not know consciously that the muscles that are not performing well will stagnate and pull on other muscles. If you cannot touch your toes, twist, and raise your arms, it is time to release the tight nodule in the back,shoulders and gluts, where is the cause.
When your posture is good and you don't "abuse" of muscles or wear and tear, you can obtain long term wellness with trigger point massage. However you may have to do this for long periods of time. These gentle micro stretches your muscles will recover from the strain and stress and will not cause damage by hampering joints and alignment. Athletes, performers,and stage professionals who need their bodies for their career or do strenuous work will appreciate this bodywork.
I was amazed at how effective are these techniques work when Frank, an ex hockey player, who was not able to put one foot in front of the other. He managed to change his walk. It is not painful but works deeply. This is a wonderful way to alleviate problems with immobility. When Mark head hit a ball at his soccer game, he was not able to move his head side to side. The deep treatments in his trapezius and head/scalp relieved his muscles that pulled.
You will be amazed at how effective this is before you do extensive stretch and workout and for damage due to sports.
