Massage
Massage Therapy - Coming Fall 2005
Massage is the most fundamental of all healing techniques. Massage is so basic to nature that we do it automatically. Let me explain.
You
are walking across a room and accidentally bump your elbow on the edge of a table. A sharp pain shoots
up your arm. Instantly you grab your elbow and begin to
rub it without even thinking. This is massage.
M
assage
is the most naturally healing thing you can
do. The nurturing touch is simple, instinctual and more
powerful than we can imagine. Some of the many studies on touch show conclusively that it reduces stress,
alleviates depression, reduces pain, boosts the immune
system and even helps pre-mature babies catch up in
their development. Without touch, we close down.
With touch - we love, communicate and nurture one
another. So massage is not just a profession for a
special few; it is part of the healing touch we all possess.
Because massage is naturally healing, its therapeutic
use dates back to the beginning mankind. Ancient
Greek, Roman and Oriental medical treatises describe in
detail how and when massage should be used. In the
Western world, it fell out of favor in the Middle Ages as
the church began regarding the body as sinful. But, by
the 1800's, a new interest in massage was started in
Sweden, and today there are many popular modalities of
therapeutic massage and bodywork.
As a
massage professional, we have spent a
considerable amount of time becoming educated an
observing the benefits of using certain strokes and have
developed systematic techniques to relieve the pain and
stress.
We are currently looking for the most talented
hands
in Dallas!
