I almost hate that my sessions are soon to come to an end. I have a Groupon for a massage at a massage parlor that does prenatal massage. When I finish my chiropractic sessions, I will go to my ob and make sure that is okay to get the massage... anything that may safely ease discomfort is definitely welcomed (in my opinion)...
Anyway, I have been feeling pretty bad since that massage... I know the reiki therapy is supposed to relax you... what do you guys think? Im trying to do anything that might relieve some stress and pain. If you read my other post I have bulging disks in c5.6 & 7 and i have a 7-8 mm chiari 1 malformation. Anyone's comments or opinions on this would be appreciated. He also wanted to try craniosacral therapy, has anyone had any success with that?
I went to physical therapy today for the first timeand I feel so much better! Did anyone else have to do physical therapy or are planning on starting? They have me a list of exercises to do at home and they work wonders.
Trigger point massage isn't the same thing as deep tissue massage. Deep tissue massage goes very deep into muscles, and it hurts. Trigger point massage also hurts, but not as much. For you, it helped and was relaxing afterward. For others, it doesn't help at all -- there's no medical evidence that shows massage actually does anything, but you can't tell that to anyone who has had one and felt a lot better for a while.
I went to school for nails! At my school they all so teach massage therapy! 3 girls in my class were pregnant! The senior class would all ways come and ask if they would like a prenatal massage. They have a special drop table for prenatal massages! The girls in my class loved it! And it was free to them! But the schools cost is half of what the other places charge and they have instructors checking on the students! I go and havent had any problems! Its $35 an hour!
Some massage techniques that are commonly used for cellulite include lymphatic drainage massage, deep tissue massage, and myofascial release. While massage may provide some temporary relief, it is not considered to be a long-term solution for cellulite.
Radiofrequency (RF) therapy: RF therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses radio waves to heat the skin's deeper layers. This heating effect is thought to stimulate collagen production, which can help to tighten and smooth the skin.
Has anyone tried LaStone Massage Therapy or the use of Bamboo? I have heard that the Bamboo provides a deep tissue massage without the discomfort from the practitioner's hands,arms, or elbows. The LaStone uses smooth stones that are heated and cooled with the balance of a light Swedish massage. There are still more modalities that I am learning to become a Massage Therapist.
Hello, I just want to be more assured. I was on a massage. Prostate massage was performed in a latex glove that was not damaged so transmission is not possible. Then there was a penis massage that used warm oil until the climax. She was dressed so there was no posterior secret. The only possible transfer would be if there was blood on hand. She had very greasy hands and I did not notice any blood. There were no blood marks when wearing a white gloved hand.
Steph I have used massage therapy, acupuncunture, physical therapy, meditation traction and more.
I LOVE massage therapy. I am blessed to have found a therapist that used to be an R.N. and she is fantastic. I would go once a week if I could afford it but I can't so I shoot for once a month and look forward to it big time.
I hope that you continue to see improvement in your visits.
On Ess's advice I'm trying this again with more clear wording. :) I hadn't meant to imply "alternative to DMD" but additional therapies. Does anyone use any *complementary* therapies? Have you had postive results with them?
I'm asking because the TN and occipital neuralgia pain had gotten so bad I was having a lot of muscle tension in my neck and back from the pain. I decided some massage therapy couldn't hurt and might help.
I have heard nothing but bad about leupron, suposed to cause crying spells, ( it puts you into a drug induced menopause) and severe depresson, back therapy is wonderful its massage, magnetic therapy and other things to reduce back pain, it feels great and is very relaxing and does help with back pain.
