Massage Therapy For Back Pain Relief PA

By Deborah Rogers


The massage therapy is known to help relieve pain, including chronic pain that arises from poor posture and those arising from injuries. A good example of this is pack pain, both lower and upper. It affects many people from all walks of life. However, a natural treatment method that has proved to be very effective is massage. There are different massage techniques used for back pain relief PA and it works by deeply relaxing muscles, which will then be far less painful.

A massage will help the tight and knotted muscles relax so allocate time for a professional massage. Massage therapy will not only serve as backache relief, it will also prevent muscle tension and lessen mental anxiety. Some back pains are caused by emotional stress too, a massage can release all the stress be it physical, mental or emotional.

The other area it has proved so successful is in a migraine. The causes of migraines are varied and point to current lifestyle trends. They include too much light and noise from playing video games, stressful job environments, and other sources. Stress and lack of sleep or uneven sleep patterns are frequently the results of high-pressure employment or studies.

Some foods will cause migraines in some sufferers, such as foods containing chemical additives, while other individuals will suffer as a result of not eating enough. Hormonal changes (birth control pills, menstruation, and menopause), alcohol, and allergies can be triggers. Doctors report that any one of these things might cause pain, but there are no guarantees that avoiding them will prevent migraines.

There are numerous reasons to try a cranial sacral massage instead of taking medicine, especially codeine or stronger pills. For one thing, strong pain killers lead to thousands of unintentional fatal overdoses every year in the United States. For another, they are highly addictive.

The CST therapist listens for the flow of cranial sacral fluid by palpating at the feet, thighs, hips, ribs, shoulders and head. When the cranial sacral fluid flows uninhibited from the skull to the tailbone and back there is a rippling effect throughout the whole body. It is similar to throwing a stone into a lake and the ripples are seen spanning out like a fan.

Once the therapist determines where the restrictions are with an uneven unbalanced rhythm, the first step is to perform a tissue unwinding to release the tight fascia. Fascia is the membrane that wraps the cells, muscles, and organs. Fascia acts as a guy wire to help hold the body upright. When it is too tight it does not allow the proper flow of cranial fluid, body fluids, nerve conduction, and muscle movement.The body feels stuck and stiff.Tissue unwinding follows the flow of cranial fluid with gentle light touch and works with this flow to release the tensions in these tissues. The therapist follows the restrictions throughout the body. It is like getting an internal massage.

When trying to find the right therapist for you, it is important to consider this an investment in your health and should be assessed in a similar way than you would seek out a doctor. After all, your health should be a complete harmony of the body, the mind, and the spirit so it deserves careful choices.
