Helping you to understanding what is going on with your body
With 20 years experience ,
I will work with your muscles, joints and fascia to achieve optimal performance, Looking at the way you walk in and lie on the table. this gives me clues To where you require work to increase energy flow to an area or more stagnation. I will evaluate your muscular structure. Left verses Right- Lower -Middle -Upper back. How your feet are on the table, your arms lying next to you all give me an insight into your body. Then I go to work
Using different techniques and working from head to toe, freeing up muscles and creating movement in the shoulders, hips, legs, ankles and back. This includes all relevant muscles of the body including the hands, feet, arms and legs as this will increase the energy flow through the body.
Working acupuncture and trigger points, energy lines, stretching and moving joints, working muscles to release and/or change the energy flow in your body .
Traditional Chinese Medicine teaches us we store tension in specific areas in the body which are linked to emotions and there corresponding organs. This allows me to individualize each massage to your specific needs.
The use of pressures points gives a different feel to my massage as does the movement of energy through there use.
Why this works
Ross's massage is a mixture of styles and therapies, for me it is bodywork. "Marc"
My massage is based on the Traditional Japanese Massage called Shiatsu. This has been adapted to clients needs by including an oil version.
The body is make up of diagnostic areas were the ki (energy flow) is either excess or deficient, this may be Liver excess, Kidney deficient, blood stagnation or Yin deficient cold. Using this knowledge I work areas to draw energy into the areas or disperse the energy along the meridians lines. Upper back has a Lung element, the middle back has Liver and Spleen element, while the lower has a Kidney element to it.
The organs inter relate to each other.
Using Tradition Chinese Medicine techniques such as the 5 element theory. By working points along meridians lines you can increase or decrease the flow of energy, therefore releasing tension and stress that becomes trapped in the body at these points. By influencing the flow of energy like this creates balance in the internal environmental.
What to expect
Paying attention to your walk and how you lie on the table will give an indication to where your tension is as I explore your muscle structure, Left verses Right- Lower -Middle -Upper back and see the difference. How your feet are on the table, your arms lying next to you will give an insight to your shoulders. Etc until I have a clear insight to the working of your body. Then I go to work
First, a great relaxing and therapeutic massage usings different techniques. Working from head to toe releasing tension freeing muscles and creating movement in the joints of the body. This includes all relevant muscles of the body including the hands, feet, arms and legs as this will increase the energy flow through the body.
The use of pressures points gives a different feel to my massage as does the movement of energy through there use.
We hold tension and tightness in our body. Shiatsu with its links to Traditional Chinese Medicine helps me recognize and unlock these blockages to create energy flow through your body. These blockages have links to the energy flow to the organs. Altering this energy will bring balance to your internal environment.
With my understanding of posture through Yoga it is my aim to improve your posture and free up the energy flow through your body.
