Love the view from my massage studio this time of year when everything is blooming. Actually makes me feel like I am in the Islands when doing a session of Hawaiian LomiLomi.

This is Traditional Temple Style Hawaiian Lomi Lomi ... my clients are raving about it. I am the only one in San Antonio offering it, next closest is Austin. The whole body is worked the entire time from head to toe and back ... just like you are laying in the surf with waves flowing over you. Crazy Relaxing !!

"Huge Discovery" of something simple and as old as time. Chronic Pain?, out of sorts?, Anxiety or Depression?? ... one simple and actually fun thing naturally puts the body back in balance ... doesn't cost a dime ... and doesn't involve taking an expensive toxic pill.

Exciting News ... I have now finished some next level training and am certified as a Medical Massage Practitioner !! I can still do an awesome Zen relaxation session, but can treat a whole host of aches and pains that most people think they "just have to live with" without the typical cocktail of drugs like muscle relaxers and opioid pain pills. You can even use your HSA and FSA funds for payment. Speaking of payment, remember First Responders always book the 90 minute premium and use the coupon code "Blue Family". Below is a list of just a few common things I can work on ...
Plantar fasciitis
Upper Cross Syndrome (back and neck from computer or phone use)
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (numbness in fingers)
Sciatica (pain down back of leg, sometimes to the toes)
Shin Splints
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (tingling / numbness in fingers)
Sprains, Strains, Muscle Injuries
Post Surgical Recovery (range of motion & scar management)
Hip Pain (both constant and when walking)
Headaches and Neck Pain
TMJ (Jaw Pain)
The list goes on and on. I also have a team of referring physicians, Chiropractors, and Physical Therapists that I work hand in hand with as each modality compliments the other. All take the PD health insurance both active and retired.

Your lymphatic system relies on "muscle pump" to do it's job as it has no "pulse" to move things along. Diaphragmatic action is a huge mover that helps the body in "taking the trash out" and cleansing your system. Most of us by the time we're adults are "chest breathers" from holding our guts in, to sitting slumped studying in school or at our work desks compressing the diaphragm. If you don't see or feel your belly rise and fall when you breath then you're cheating your immune system. Here is a good quick tutorial ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xQJ2O4b5TM

Fascia is the bread and butter of massage therapy, even more than muscle and bone. Body work can accomplish things that "medicine" writes off to pain killers and just "coping". Short video worth the watch to understand that our bodies are amazing, adaptable, systems.
