What pressure do you prefer during your massage ? 🤔
There is a common misconception that you need deep, painful pressure to get results. But the truth is, heavy pressure often causes muscles to tense up more in defense.
If the pressure is too firm, you might find yourself instinctively holding your breath just to get through the treatment. When this happens, your body is fighting the massage rather than receiving it.
Sometimes, you just need gentle-to-medium pressure to truly melt tension away.
This restorative approach works because it:
✨ Calms the nervous system (moving you out of "fight or flight").
✨ Prevents "guarding," allowing me to work deeper without pain.
✨ Improves circulation and oxygen flow naturally.
🌿 The Secret Ingredient: My 'Relief' Blend
To enhance this gentle flow, I use my Relief Muscle Tension essential oil blend during treatments.
Clove & Rosemary: Provide analgesic heat to tight spots.
Lavender, Sweet Marjoram & Frankincense: Induce deep restorative calm.
This blend helps relax the muscles before I even apply pressure, so you never have to hold your breath.
