Defeat Stress And Promote Well Being By Means Of A Fun, Relaxing Head Massage
We all know that sometimes all our bodies need to jumpstart the healing process is the right touch by a trained hand ..
. as in the case of head massage therapy. Also known as cranial sacral therapy, this is a gentle, noninvasive form of alternative medicine that deals with the movement of the fluid surrounding the skull and spine.When you think about what keeps a body in good health, good eating habits, less stress, exercise and the avoidance of harmful habits pops to mind. But many researchers hae suggested that a healthy mind and body are the result of our internal healing system. When we have a cut or feel the effects of a flu or cold, our bodies defend us and assist us in the healig process. Head massage therapy is but one of the techniques developed to support that process.
By utilizing a light - or soft - touch technique to move the bones into the correct alignment, pressure is applied that is similar to the weight of a nickel. Some medical problems can lead to a loss of function and pain ... a head massage hones in on these areas to prevent the loss and pain from occurring and is utilized by therapists as both the primary and secondary treatment for existing health issues.
Head massage therapy has been proven to provide relief from:
Relief from brain and/or spinal cord damage;
Decreased migraine headache pain;
Diminished effects of chronic fatigue;
Sharpened motor skills;
Diminished back and neck pain;
Corrected dysfunction of the joints;
Relief from symptoms brought on by tension and stress;
Reduction in orthopedic problems.
While head massage therapy seeks to provide relief from the symptoms of a health problem, its many concern is in identifying the source of the discomfort. Many have included head massage therapy as a part of their normal reoutine because of its effectiveness and gentleness and have enjoyed increased energy, better sleep and less illness.
The head massage starts with the therapist evaluating and treating the membranes and fluid located around the spinal cord and brain. This procedure helps to remove any barriers which may be preventing your body from self healing.
Because the spinal cord and brain are a part of the central nervous system, this area has powerful influence over a variety of body functions. So during a head massage, your therapist helps your body overcome obstacles that block its natural self correcting tendencies. To do so, he/she takes cues from your body regarding the treatment to follow, in a way that is extremely effective and safe.
A head massage takes only about 30 minutes, but because all of our organs are linked to our nerves, a head massage actually benefits our entire body and releases toxins that can be harmful. Many people who use computers heavily at their workplace suffer from tight neck muscles and aching back/shoulders. A head massage - at the hands of a trained professional - can relieve and even eliminate these symptoms entirely.
Simply put ... by enjoying a head massage which takes about half the time of a full-session massage ... your body will benefit from head to toe.
