Water-Natures Natural Healing Remedy by Andrew Wolfe,

Andrew Wolfe LMP
Wednesday, Feb 08, 2012
Conditions:
health,preventative health,holistic health,toxins,detoxification
Have you ever been told by your massage therapist after receiving a massage to drink plenty of water? You may ask yourself, ''Why is this"? The body is mostly composed of fluids. The skin holds the fluids in as well as holding other structures together - like a body suit. Fluids in the body consist of lymph, blood, cerebrospinal fluid as well as other fluids as carriers to help in the transportation, distribution and elimination process. It thereby supports the ability to heal, restore, maintain and regulate the body. Daily water intake is critical to maintaining this process. The act of ...
The Value of Massage by Andrew Wolfe,LMP,MMs

Conditions:
wellness care,preventative health
Health care is on the minds of most people, whether they have it, need it, or don't have the right policy due to financial infeasibility, to acquire or maintain it. Unfortunately when it comes to health, if you don't invest in it now, you pay for it later, as the investment of our bodies seem to yield higher rates of health issue returns to our lives as we age. As it stands now, preventative health is not recognized under most health insurance policies unless it comes in the form of exams in the context of a physical and or lab testing, which is a great start to establish a good base line of ...
Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage
By:
Chrysanne Scharer
Tuesday, Nov 15, 2011
Topic:
Chronic Illness
Deep Tissue Massage is a type of massage therapy that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissues and the inner sections of thick muscles. Its objective is to release the chronic forms of tension in the body through deep pressure and slow strokes on the targeted area. For this reason, this style of massage is recommended to people who are experiencing frequent pains originating from the area. However, people who receive this massage usually experience body pain for a day or two after the therapy session. Why Deep Tissue Massage? So why do people choose to go for this type of massage even ...
Raindrop Technique - A Healing Aromatherapy Protocol
By:
Jacqueline McLaughlin
Thursday, Jun 24, 2010
Many people have asked me about Raindrop Technique, an aromatherapy protocol developed by Dr. D. Gary Young. I have found Raindrop Technique to be a very powerful protocol for any kind of back, neck and sciatic pain; as well as an overall immune support. Here's what you might expect from a Raindrop Technique session: The purpose of Raindrop Technique is to stimulate every organ, muscle and bone of the body at a cellular level through the oils, boosting the immune system, bringing the body into structural/electrical balance, and enabling the release of toxins or disease wherever they may be ...

Your Power to Heal

Hi! I’m Karin Meacham, Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Oregon (#12233). Welcome to part four of my four-part series on the whys and hows of massage therapy as an integral part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Parts 1-3 taught us how the body responds to massage. Last—but most assuredly NOT least—we turn to the power of the mind. #4. Your Power to Heal It never ceases to amaze me how many of my clients, in the middle of their massage, will say something like, "Wow—I didn't notice this before, but right where you're working? It's been killing me forever." I'm ...
Yes, it's Relaxing

Wednesday, Feb 03, 2010
Hi! I'm Karin Meacham, Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Oregon (#12233). Welcome to part three of my four-part series on the whys and hows of massage therapy as an integral part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Parts 1 and 2 taught us how massage addresses pain—symptom and cause. But where does stress fit in? #3. Yes, It's Relaxing But I'm not talking about vegging-out, do-nothing, off-in-la-la-land relaxation (although it’s highly underrated, in moderation). I'm talking about relaxation of the nervous system. We tend to think of “stress” as a mental thing, ...
No More Band-Aids!

Wednesday, Feb 03, 2010
Hi! I’m Karin Meacham, Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Oregon (#12233). Welcome to part two of my four-part series on the whys and hows of massage therapy as an integral part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. In Part 1 ("Before There Was Aspirin, There Was Massage"), we learned why massage lessens the symptom of pain. But it doesn’t just address symptoms; it treats the cause, too! #2. No More Band-Aids! If, instead of breaking out the IcyHot, you go get a massage for that sore back-knee-or-whatever, you’re not just putting a Band-Aid on the problem. Not only are ...

Hi! I’m Karin Meacham, Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Oregon (#12233). Welcome to part one of my four-part series on the whys and hows of massage therapy as an integral part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Massage as a tool for healing and wellness functions on four distinct yet interrelated levels: It relieves pain; it addresses some of the causes of pain and helps to mobilize the body's healing responses; it relaxes the nervous system; and it reconnects the mind to the body. #1. Before There Was Aspirin, There Was Massage Even today, touch is still our first and most ...
