Ouch, that Pain, Maybe I Need Deep Tissue Massage

So, I'm at my local nail salon (I love the French manicure) without my children for a change, when I am complaining about my back. It always hurts. I have tried many over the counter medications, over and over again, but to no avail. Now, I was talking privately to my friend, but some random buttinsky piped up "try a deep tissue massage". Apparently, I was speaking too loudly, and now my ailment is out in public. I, unfortunately, was desperate. I had to inquire further. I have had massages, they haven't helped. However, Miss B. was extremely impressed with the local masseuse, and for all I knew, was working on a referral basis! Anyway, when all was said and done, I was ready to head off for a deep tissue massage.

As I found out, if you have pain for an on-going amount of time, it may be deep tissue problems. Deep tissue massage can alleviate many problems. Bands of painful tissue can cause muscle tension which can be serious, even debilitating. One must go deep beyond the surface, and may need a specialist in this field.

A deep tissue masseuse will use tools of ceramic, glass and wood. He/she will also use elbows and fingers, as well as hands and arms. A classical masseuse (such as one who performs a Swedish massage) will use just hands and arms. Most massage therapist are qualified in some sort of deep tissue massage, but there are also true specialists(the one I visited was a specialist).

As more people learn about the benefits of deep tissue massage therapy, employment is growing in this field. As independent contractors, massage therapists usually have their own equipment which consists of special massage tables and chairs are used to position clients during massages.

With any massage, special equipment is used for deep tissue massage. The equipment consists of a table with a horseshoe shaped head support for ease of breathing while lying face-down. It has a padded surface which is easy to keep clean and remain hygienic. Mats and pillows are also used for additional support.

What a great experience I had with deep tissue massage. I continue to go frequently, but the greatest reward is that I am out of pain. I am no longer adding toxins to my body in the form of over the counter pills over and over again. I also have more energy than before, and this was a pleasant surprise to me.

Having had the massage, I felt great. Not only was I out of pain, but I felt I could think more clearly. Having researched general massage, I found out that this is not a figment of my imagination. When a massage is performed, the blood flow is better and this leads to overall well being from brain function to kidney/liver/elimination of waste. I found a local specialist. Check it out, find your local specialist.

Go and treat yourself to a deep tissue massage. Don't let pain slow down. Pain can be overwhelming. Forget about the over the counter medications. There is a time for them, but deep tissue pain cannot be helped by it. Try it once, you'll never regret it. Increased brain power as a side effect of pain relief? Can't beat that can you?

Don't let chronic pain slow you down, and don't keep wasting money on the over the counter pain relief and have no relief! Do as I did. Treat yourself to a deep tissue massage. You will never regret the decision to go and have one. Increase in energy, improved brain power, and most of all, no pain.
