Get the "Fuzz" out with Massage....

Get the "Fuzz" out with Massage....

In my most popular massage which is Blue Pacific's Full Body Massage  I integrate stretches as stretching is very important for getting the fuzz out....... What is that you ask well its explained here in this Video . I do a lot of research and through that research I found this video and wanted to share it.

As explained in the video when we are immobile or asleep the interfaces of our muscles grow a type of "fuzz" between the sliding surfaces of your musculature and when we stretch.......that fuzz melts away. The fuzz is a thin layer of fine loose filmy fiber often found between superficial fascia and deep fascia. When you get a build up of this fuzz it causes a stiffness and if we get too much build up of the "fuzz" we get thicker fibers forming which inhibits movement and reduces range of motion. This is one of the reasons I always put some stretches into my massage not only is it getting rid of that fuzz it also feels great !!

The many benefits from stretching the muscles, tendons and cartilage are that the stretch lengthens muscle fibers that have contracted from disuse or excessive use and helps restore muscle flexibility, assists in removal of natural wastes like lactic acid from muscles it also helps increases flexibility, restores muscle balance and warms the muscles. Stretching also relieves stress and tension, reduces inflammation in joints and improves posture.

Lower Back Pain

 Massage Therapy & Lower Back Pain

Recent studies have found that professional massage therapy is one of the more effective, and money saving alternatives available, and more beneficial than traditional medical treatments.  Seeking the assistance of a professional massage therapist, is the most beneficial treatment you will find!

Dr. Daniel Cherkin, Director of the Group Health Research Institute states that lower back pain is also a common cause of disability, work absenteeism, and 'presenteeism,' when people are unable to perform well at work. A study involving 401 patients with ages ranging between 20, to 65 years, found some amazing results when these people were treated with massage therapy.

The study compared the effectiveness of structural massage, versus usual medical care, medication, and physical therapy. Patients were randomly assigned to receive one of three treatments as follows:

· Group 1 – Full body relaxation massage, often called Swedish massage

· Group 2 – Focused deep tissue massage for pain related tissues, ligaments, and joints.

· Group 3 – Painkillers, anti inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, or physical therapy.

Groups 1 & 2 were given a one hour massage, once a week for 10 weeks.

After 10 weeks, the patients were surveyed again in relation to their symptoms, and mobility, and again assessed at 6 months, and again at 12 months.

Groups 1 & 2 reported that their lower back pain had improved significantly, or was completely gone altogether.  It was found that patients who received massage therapy, were twice as likely to see improvements in pain, and function, as those receiving usual medical treatment, as with Group 3.

After 10 weeks, approximately two-thirds of groups 1 & 2, had made substantial improvement as opposed to about one-third of those in the usual care group. These results quite literally speak for themselves.

This type of massage treatment works for other areas of the body, upper back, neck, arms, legs ect.  

Even though studies in the past have somewhat concentrated on the benefits of deep tissue massage, this study has also proven that relaxation massage, also has incredible benefits.  There are two main reasons for this, relaxation massage is more widely available, and more affordable than a lot of traditional medical treatments, and medications.

You and your body deserve the best, and you will find that at Blue Pacific Massage & Body Works.

I am a firm believer in Neuromuscular Therapy

Neuromuscular Therapy

 Neuromuscular Therapy is a scientifically based technique of massage therapy. Using soft tissue manipulation by utilizing static pressure, the same level of intensity is held for a certain amount of time on a taut muscle or point. Keeping the pressure anywhere from 10 to 40 seconds usually until you get the taut muscle to release, sometimes this release can take longer so patience and good communication is a plus when using Neuromuscular Therapy. Your therapist will use a pain scale and instruct you on using breathing techniques to help in getting that tense or knotted muscle to release. This helps to re-balance the function of the nervous system and the skeletal system.

When a chain reaction begins say a stressed or over worked muscle you get what is known as vasoconstriction Thinning of the blood then with the thinning of the blood vessels in the affected area limited blood flow can cause muscle tissue to tighten. When muscle tissue becomes tight or hypertonic, toxins such as Pyruvic acids, Hyaluronic acids and Lactic acids get trapped, these acids cause pain as they are natural neuro-exciters, which cause increased nerve sensitivity which can cause muscle tissue to press nerves against bone also known as muscle compression which can cause a lot of pain. When in pain your body functions in different ways to compensate which can also lead to Postural Distortion and Biomechanical Dysfunction!! Myofascial Trigger Points may also become affected, which redirects pain from one part of the body to another. Thus your chain reaction if not taken care of from the onset. 

Many times a client calls and is in such pain they really need help, I am a firm believer in Neuromuscular Therapy as it is very effective and has helped many clients get relief from their pain!! Neuromuscular Therapy helps loosen tight or tense muscles (hypertonic muscles) which restores circulation which then breaks the chain reaction and relieves the client’s pain.

Massage therapy as body maintenance for overall health and wellness helps to stop the chain reaction by taking care of the issues before they can cause more of the negative effects!!

Be sure and call or text Blue Pacific Massage & Body Works 760 680 7910 before your chain reaction begins….

Benefits of Lymphatic Massage

Benefits of Manual Lymph Drainage Massage (MLD) after Surgeries

 

Any massage is supposed to provide relaxation and make the muscles work more efficiently. Lymphatic massage is no different. A Manual Lymph Drainage Massage (MLD) is a procedure that helps the lymph system work more efficiently. When it is done following a surgery, the treated or operated area is given special attention and care to speed up the recovery process and get positive results.

Benefits of Lymphatic Massage

Lymphatic massage comes with many benefits. Some of them are discussed here.

Reduces Swelling

After a surgery such as liposuction, tummy tucks or other cosmetic surgeries, the treated may swell.  Lymphatic Massage helps in reducing the swelling more quickly while speeding up the recovery process.

Toxins are Flushed

When it comes to cosmetic surgeries or liposuction, the body gets a lot of toxins. If they are not flushed or removed, they can cause damage. Lymphatic Massage promotes flushing of toxins and maximizes the chances of the area to not become infected.

Improves Circulation of Blood

Lymphatic Massage promotes the circulation of blood in the treated areas. There may be some cases where the circulation of blood is affected. With the help of Lymphatic Massage, blood circulation as well as the circulation of lymphatic fluid is improved. During Lymphatic Massage, an experienced and professional massage therapist gently manipulates the skin and underlying tissues in the areas of lymph production to increase circulation and promote drainage and healing. It is a very light touch and very relaxing.

Enhances Healing Process

Lymphatic Massage enhances the healing process and makes the patient recover from the surgeries more quickly than naturally. With the involvement of different procedures, the muscles are relaxed which help recover and heal quickly. It also stimulates the healing of wounds.

Reduces Discomfort and Irritation

Procedures like tummy tucks, liposuction and cosmetic surgeries can be very painful and distressing. Post surgeries, the patient may find themselves in serious discomfort. Lymphatic Massage reduces discomfort and eliminates irritation making the patient relax.

These are some of the best benefits of Lymphatic Massage post surgeries, if you want to help reduce the pain and discomfort and recover more quickly, it is advisable to consult a Lymphatic Massage Therapist. You will feel much more relaxed and will also heal quicker. You will also get to see the desired results more quickly than expected because of the reduction in swelling.

Your Complexion & Massage

Massage Improves Complexion

Let's face it, most of us would love a better complexion, after all, our face is the first thing people see.When our skin is glowing, people will even comment on how great our complexion is. A healthy complexion makes us look healthy, as well as gives us self confidence. A professional massage therapist Hesperia, can assist with a healthier complexion by introducing you to a wellness program.

Our skin can go through a real work out in today's society. Smog, dirt, dust, not eating properly, smoking, alcohol, not drinking enough water, are just a few of the reasons our skin may not be as healthy as it could, or should be. The winter months can also be detrimental to our complexion, as that is when the skin is almost devoid of oxygen.

Scientists have stated that the skin is similar to the respiratory system, and the lungs. It requires oxygen, and stimulation to remain healthy, and appear healthy. A professional massage activates the blood vessels, and gives the skin cells an opportunity to breathe.  As our cells are constantly replacing themselves, it is very important to stimulate new growth, and keep them healthy.

Signs that our complexion needs a little help include, bags under the eyes, flabby skin, pale skin, skin that lacks elasticity, and is of an ashy-gray coloring.  Basically, if we know we are looking unhealthy, chances are, we are unhealthy.  Our blood circulation needs a little assistance, toxins removed, and together with an improved diet, and massage wellness program, we can have our complexion back to what it should be.

Benefits of Massage

The benefits of a professional massage have been known in many cultures around the world, for generations. While many different massage techniques exist and are designed to target specific areas, and conditions, there are mutual benefits from every technique. Regular massages promote a natural healing process for various ailments, as well as for all around wellness.

When one realizes the absolute benefits to getting a regular professional massage, they may come to understand how beneficial a regular massage program can be, especially one that is specifically designed for each and every person.

·         Posture Improvement

It is important to understand that even though massage should not be used as a chiropractic diagnosis replacement, posture can naturally be improved when the muscles around the spine become more supple, as well as flexible. Naturally when the muscles around the spine improve, it is very beneficial to the spine as well. An improved posture also aids in reducing stress throughout the body, as well as aids in improved breathing.

·         Improved Breathing

Being able to breathe deeply, is crucial in ensuring oxygen circulates around the body.  This encourages healing, as well as growth. Any decrease in oxygen circulation can result in tension aches and pains, headaches, as well as random muscle pain. This can result in significant issues if let over a period of time. When the oxygen intake is enhanced, it naturally promotes the release of toxins and negative energy.

·         Circulation Improvement

Regular massage treatment improves both blood and lymph circulation. This assists in maximizing energy, and gaining body strength. During the colder months, circulation and metabolisms may be slower, so massage can assist removing toxins in the blood, whilst encouraging better circulation. This also helps with muscle recovery, growth, and also promotes the natural healing process.

·         Improves Skin Tone and Health

By the use of high-quality natural creams and oils, I can improve the tone and health of your skin. This can be extremely apparent even after just a few massage sessions. The skin cells are moisturized, revitalized, and replenished naturally.

·         Promotes and Increases Joint Flexibility

When joints are subjected to repetitive stress, or are overused, growth can be stunted resulting in issues later on.  Regular massage sessions can relieve stored tension as well encourage flexibility in the joints.

Some may not realize that there are also emotional, and psychological benefits as well.

·         Anxiety Reduction

A professional, and successful massage is a natural deep relaxant, which can significantly reduce anxiety. Normally, anxiety is stored in some of the key areas in the body; shoulders, abdomen, neck, and lower back. Relieving these areas of tension, the mind 'lets go' of anxiety, and the sufferer can experience a light, and almost freeing sensation.

·         Increases Peace of Mind

Once you are feeling relaxed, peace of mind is the natural result. A professional massage gives you a sense of calm, well-being, and an all around good feeling.

·         Enhances a Calm Mind

A professional massage encourages a calm mind.  A calm mind in turn, creates an avenue for creativity and it is during these times that minds are more productive in creative thinking, reducing stressful thoughts, focused on the positive and being able to focus. By relaxing the entire body, naturally the mind becomes much calmer.

·         Increased Self-Awareness

It is an unfortunate fact, that the mind-body connection can be easily overlooked in this fast-paced society. It seems that from the minute we wake up, until the moment we go to bed, we are in 'mind-only' mode.We are focused on finances, family, work, and various other things. Re-establishing the connection with the body, you will experience a greater ease in movement, an enhanced feeling of well-being, and be more centered.

·         Increase in Mental Alertness

I have discussed that a professional massage can take you to a deep relaxed state, however, this is also a state of heightened mental alertness. A relaxed and calm mind is more acutely aware while in this state, and more capable of solving tough issues.

Think of a regular professional massage as part of your health improvement plan. I am thoroughly trained in various massage techniques, and able to devise an individual massage program just for you. You can see even more information on my website

How Can A Professional Massage Benefit You?

Most people enjoy a good massage, but few probably realize how much it can actually benefit their well-being.  We have all suffered muscle soreness, woken up with a stiff neck, and have pain in areas we can't reach ourselves.  Not everyone has a spouse to help rub away those painful spots, and then again, not everyone knows how to massage to achieve the best possible benefits.  This is when you need a good massagetherapist Hesperia. 

A professionally trained massage therapist is trained to identify which areas are in need of the most work, and has the skills to improve, and heal the areas by using different techniques, and methods.  An experienced and professional massage therapist will usually work on a client for at least 60 minutes to ensure all necessary areas are treated.  This amount of time is also required to prepare the body for the treatment, by using techniques to relax the muscles and affected areas.

Studies in recent years have shown that the more times you can visit a professional massage therapist, the better you will feel.  Many may not realize that not only can a professional massage take away stress from daily life, but can also assist in the healing of sports injuries such as strained hamstrings in half the time.  Sleep problems, digestion improvement, and even chronic headaches will all improve when you visit a professional therapist, and enter in to a wellness program.

Massage being used as a healing technique, has in fact, been around for thousands of years, and a part of many cultures.  Physical touch is well known as a natural human reaction when dealing with pain, and stress.  We have all heard that hugging can increase the hemoglobin which carries oxygen throughout the body, as well as reducing stress, depression, and boosting the immune system.  If a simple hug can do so much, imagine what a professional massage can do!

There is now scientific proof that the benefits of a professional massage can range from assisting to treat chronic diseases, injuries, and the stress related to living in our fast paced society.  A professional massage also benefits clients on a physiological level, as well as psychological.  Massage should not be seen as a just luxury, but as a necessary part of your own wellness, and health program.

Experts have estimated that between 80% and 90% of disease is stress-related.  By entering in to a wellness program with a qualified, professional, and experienced massage therapist, you can reduce your own risk rate dramatically!  The physical changes that a professional massage can make to your body, can have a very positive effect in various areas of a client's life.  Apart from learning to relax, massage also lowers blood pressure, increases circulation, helps clients sleep better, reduces fatigue, and gives you more energy to handle the stress of daily life.

Blue Pacific Massage and Body Works, Hesperia, California, is a professional massage therapy business, dedicated to assisting clients with their wellness program.  Owner/operator, Terree Nelson, is qualified, trained, and experienced in a variety of different massage therapy techniques.  Working with each client's individual needs, Terree assures each client will leave feeling the positive effects of their treatment.

Shoulder & Neck Pain

Why Do Your Shoulders and Neck Hurt?

A lot of people suffer from aching shoulders, and a stiff neck.  It is not always caused by sleeping the wrong way, it is usually caused from stress. This in turn can result in the sufferer suffering from very painful and debilitating headaches. The majority of sufferers, can trace their problem back to stress, and poor working posture. Seeking the assistance of a professional massage therapist Hesperia, can put you on the track to a more stress free, and pain free environment.

Our bodies were not designed to sit in one position for hours on end, every day. Hunched over a computer in the office, is not healthy for the body in anyway, however, there are some steps you can take that will help reduce the consequences of having to do so.

Moving around, stretching, and getting the blood flowing, is something that should be being done by everyone who has to sit at a desk, in front of a computer for hours. When your body is being forced to sit in one position for hours on end, with no break, it will of course start to complain. We may not notice it as much while at work, because our focus is elsewhere, but those who have sat on a plane for many hours, understand completely how uncomfortable it can get, and the consequences of having to do so.

It is also important to realize here, that even though moving around, stretching, and doing certain exercises will certainly help, we have to also learn new habits.  Our bodies unfortunately, can be 'set' in a cycle of dysfunction that can create further complications such as Muscle Memory Disfunction.  We can quite easily fall back in to bad habits with posture. A professional massage therapist at Blue Pacific Massage and Body Works, can not only help ease the stiff and sore muscles in the neck, shoulders, and head, but show you some techniques on how to improve your posture.

It does take time to get used to changing the way you react to stress, as well as remembering to perform simple exercises to help, but with an individualized wellness program designed specifically for you, Terree can help you reduce, and even avoid causing these painful problems to yourself!

If you are an office worker, slumped over a desk and computer for hours on end, call or text Terree at BluePacific Massage and Body Works  (760) 680 7910.

Massage and Healing

Massage is a healing art which requires a combination of academic knowledge along with clinical skills, sensitivity, awareness and manual dexterity. Nearly everyone has the natural feel for giving a massage, yet it takes a genuine desire to help others, with a commitment to the time, energy, and focus necessary for being a good solid Massage Therapist.

All the information Professional Massage Therapists learn in the Anatomy and Physiology course to become a licensed Massage Therapist help to better understand how the bones, muscles and other systems of the body work and integrate with each other. It is an important course and when properly applied to massage therapy it can greatly increase the effectiveness of a massage.

Getting a massage from a licensed Massage Therapist who can tell you about the muscle tensions they've just worked on, why there might be tension there, and what exercises would help to address the buildup of this tension is more beneficial to you the client.Trained massage therapists, have to become certified, and take many courses in order to be qualified. They also are required to spend a certain amount of hours performing the actual massage with a licensed massage therapist's guidance before they become certified.

The field of massage therapy is growing rapidly in response to the public’s expanding interest in forms of healthcare that promote well-being and a higher quality of life.

Muscle Memory

Muscle memory problems can contribute to everything from postural irregularities to chronic pain.
Your natural muscle memory can change from repetitive movements, long-term stress, surgeries and traumatic injuries. What usually happens is your muscles enter an altered state due to the trauma and then remember that altered state even though it’s not the normal resting or moving position.
Your muscles learn to return to the non-natural state and use that non-natural state as its natural state. This muscle memory can be a cause of pain, even long after the actual injury has presumably healed. With massage and stretching you can retrain the muscle memory to its natural state, but it does take time.
Just like when we learn something new it takes time to remember whatever it is we are learning. Take for instance when I learn a new massage technique like a certain stretch I have to continually remind myself as I am doing the stretch where I place each hand and which direction to stretch. After repetitively doing the stretch for my clients I find myself doing the stretch without having to remind myself which hand goes where and which direction to stretch. All that practice made me able to automatically do the stretch without thinking!
Same with your muscles! We retrain them with massage to go back to the natural state of being relaxed in the natural position. After continually relaxing the muscle and putting it back in its natural position after time it starts to automatically relax and stay in its natural state or position. Like the old saying goes Practice makes perfect.
At Blue Pacific Massage & Body Works I have a therapeutic massage package to help you with any chronic pain and help your muscle memory return to its natural state.
I am a professional certified massage therapist dedicated to helping clients feel better with massage. Call or Text 760 680 7910 for your appointment or book online at Massage Book ...

 Cannabis-Infused Massage 

Massage can be soothing for both body and the mind. A Professional Massage Therapist knows where exactly to start to relax and relieve the stressed muscles. People prefer and use different types of oils for massage because of the health benefits associated with each type of massage. What is more intriguing is that most people do not know that one of the best ways to uplift the health benefits of massage is to use cannabis infused massage oil.  

In states where cannabis is legalized, you can find Massage Therapists offering cannabis infused massage.  

Having that said, some of you might be thinking that cannabis massage will get you high but it won’t. It is simply because of the fact that this oil will not make it into the bloodstream, thus you don’t have to worry about that.  

Benefits of Cannabis Infused Massage Oil  

There are tons of amazing health benefits of cannabis infused massage oil. Some of them are: 

• Anti-inflammatory Properties – Getting a massage from a professional practitioner can be soothing because of the anti-inflammatory properties. It reduces the pain and inflammation in the muscles.  
• Senses are relaxed – Using cannabis infused oil for a massage will stimulate your skin and senses just like getting your skin high.  
• Makes the Skin Healthier – A cannabis infused oil contains fatty acids and other healthy compounds that can nourish and strengthen the skin. It leaves a glowing effect to the skin and makes it lighter in tone.  
• Muscles Relaxation – Cannabis infused oil massage can stimulate the skin which helps the muscles to relax. This eases pain and tension in the muscles and is an excellent way to decompress at the end of the day.  

These are some of the best benefits of using cannabis infused oil for a massage. All these properties combine to create a unique companion for a massage. The health benefits of this massage oil are not limited to the person getting the massage only. The practitioner also gets to enjoy these benefits through their hands. The job of a massage practitioner is very demanding and hectic. The use of cannabis infused oil in massage will also help them stay active and energetic.  

You can also mix it with other essential oils to make it healthier for the skin. The use of this oil is not harmful to the skin in any way and does not possess any side effects as well.  

What you should make sure that the use of cannabis is legal in your state and you have a license to use cannabis. Having met these two requirements, you are ready to experience an all different massage that will boost your emotions, relax your muscles, give peace to your mind and soul and make you feel better.

 I encourage every one of you to experience a massage and get all those benefits a massage has for you!!
