New to massage? Here is your quick guide.
At Divine Alignment Massage & Wellness, there are three different types of massage that are offered: therapeutic, lymphatic, and pregnancy.
The therapeutic massage that is offered can be either 30 or 60 minutes. For a 60 minute session, just book two 30 minute blocks of time. This massage type involves working the muscles, skin, ligaments, and tendons to relieve pain or stress. It is what is commonly thought of when you hear about massage. The pressures that are offered are medium and soft. Make sure to let Isa know what your preference is so that you can leave feeling the maximum amount of relief possible.
The lymphatic system helps the body’s immune system, and comprises of bone marrow, the thymus, lymph nodes, spleen, and various tissues, fluids, and vessels. Your tonsils and adenoids may have been removed as a child. These are also parts of the lymphatic system. Regular exercise, consuming enough water daily, and eating healthy all contribute to help the lymphatic system run optimally. Sometimes, we need to help the lymphatic system. This is where massage comes in. It is very important that you only see a provider that is licensed to provide this form of massage, as overstimulation can cause significant health challenges. Isa is qualified to provide lymphatic drainage massage and has been helping many people by relieving pain and swelling caused by lymphatic blockages for over 10 years.
Massage during pregnancy can relieve many of the aches and pains associated with bringing a new life to this planet. Again, ensuring that a qualified massage therapist is performing your service is critical. There are many changes that a woman’s body undergoes that are so subtle that they are rarely noticed. The training required to obtain a license to practice this form of massage is essential to the health and safety of both mother and child. Isa is licensed to perform this type of massage, and has called it one of her most rewarding services offered.
