✨ A Little Reminder About Pain & The Body ✨
Over the weekend I had a client who requested that I only work on one area of the body because that is where they felt the most discomfort.
But here’s the thing…
Just because you feel pain in one area doesn’t mean that’s where the problem is coming from. The body is beautifully interconnected.
- Tight hips can create knee pain.
- A restricted low back can irritate the hamstrings.
- Ankle mobility issues can show up as calf tension.
And sometimes the area that hurts is simply the area that’s compensating for something else.
As massage therapists, part of our job is to look beyond the symptom and find the true source of imbalance. That’s how we create real, lasting relief rather than just a temporary fix.
So if you ever walk into a massage session with discomfort in one spot and your therapist recommends working somewhere else too… this is likely the reason why.
Your body works as a team. And treating the whole pattern often leads to the biggest breakthroughs.
If you’ve been dealing with pain that keeps coming back, I’d love to help you find the root cause and help figure out what your body is really trying to tell you.
