If you're training for 10+ hours a week, there's a decent chance that you've got some pain. It might be your IT band when you run, or your shoulder after a swim. Hopefully you've got a trainer helping you make modifications to your routine, but what can massage do? It can work with your nervous system, with your inflammation, as well as directly with your sore muscles.

Some chronic pain and dysfunction can be due to increased sensitivity and spasm rather than structural damage. Through massage, we can gradually convince your nervous system that it doesn't need that hypersensitivity. By taking your joints through a pain free range of motion while working gently with the surrounding muscles, we can convince the brain that there's no need for that spasm or tightness.

Massage is excellent for "checking in" with your whole body. When you're in the middle of an intense training regimen, it can be easy to forget about your upper back, or your hips. By receiving massage, you can learn about areas where tightness is creeping in, and together we can do something about it before there's a problem.

Finally, we can improve your ❤️self-care❤️.....If you own a foam roller or a trigger point ball, I can help you refine your routine to minimize pain, and help you focus on areas that will do the most good. For instance, did you know that IT band tightness originates in the gluteus maximus, along with another muscle called the tensor fasciae latae? By working with those muscles instead of trying to roll out the iliotibial band itself, you can gently reduce your outside thigh pain without causing further irritation.

Let me know if you have any questions!

“Speak only if it improves upon the silence.” -Mahatma Gandhi

SILENCE

Silence can make us nervous thinking we need to fill the void, but there is immense strength in silence.
All sounds, from a whisper to a classical symphony, arise out of silence and disappear into silence. But silence is always there beneath sound and is the space where sound can exist. We tend to think of silence as the absence of sound, but silence has its own weight and quality. When you listen to silence, you can perceive its intense depth and power. Taking the time to experience silence calms the mind and rejuvenates the body. Silence is the void where we can hear the many sounds that we often ignore - the voice of our intuition telling us the truth, the sound of the breeze blowing, the hum of the radiator, and the noises we make just because we are alive.

One way to experience silence is to wake up before the rest of the world has come alive. Try not to move into activity, and leave off the lights, radio, and television. Sit still and simply listen. You may hear your heartbeat or your breath, but keep your attention tuned to the silence that surrounds you. Stay this way for as long as you can, and allow the sound of silence to pe*****te your body until it moves into your core. Feel the gentle, pulsing waves of silence and allow it to cleanse you. Five minutes of communing with silence can leave you feeling vibrant and connected to the universe.

At night, choose a moment after everyone around you has retired and tune in to silence. You can also experience silence throughout the day. Even in the midst of activity, moments of silence are always present. Usually we ignore or feel nervous around silence and try to fill these moments with sound. Yet silence is always there - vast, potent, and available for us to step into any time we choose.
