The Myth that is Massage and Adhesions

The Myth that is Massage and Adhesions

For many years, massage therapists have told their clients to drink more water as it helps flush toxins released by the massage. This always troubled me as it was never clear what “toxins” were being released nor how they were being released. For me, either the “toxins” were normal metabolic waste products that would be removed from the body anyway (with at best massage slightly speeding up the process) or the “toxins” would be chemically bound in the body and…

Cellulite Massage: Separating Fact from Fiction

Cellulite Massage: Separating Fact from Fiction

Cellulite, the dreaded term that often evokes a sense of frustration among many women, has spurred a multibillion-dollar industry offering creams, wraps, and treatments promising miraculous reduction or elimination. Yet, much of this expenditure leads to disappointment, with scant evidence of efficacy. Scepticism looms over the credibility of research, as many suspect biased funding skewing results in favour of corporate interests rather than scientific integrity. Massage therapists tout their techniques as cellulite solutions, citing studies supporting the efficacy of cellulite…

Abdominal Massage for Improved Health

Abdominal Massage for Improved Health

Many people who have regular massage have never been offered abdominal massage. Many would never consider having a stomach massage.  It is a personal space that we are not used to having touched. Others who have experienced abdominal massage Sydney would never consider seeing a therapist who didn’t provide the service.  Too not provide tummy massage would be a deal breaker. Many therapists shy away from offering/including abdominal massage as they may not have been trained, they may feel uncomfortable…

“Unusual Requests”

“Unusual Requests”

The vast majority of the massage bookings I have taken are just from “normal” people after a “normal” massage. Occasionally people will have specific requests such as “will you massage my abdomen” within the session or “do you mind if you spend 1/2 the time working on my feet”. Whilst these may not be the norm there is nothing particularly untoward about such requests. However over the years there have been multiple requests for Sydney mobile massage services that would…

Benefits of Sports Massage

Benefits of Sports Massage

There are many wild and woolly claims made about the mechanisms whereby massage is good for sports performance. Massage improves circulation, massage flushes lactic acid, massage opens pores and enables nutrients and waste products to pass through, massage can break down scar tissue, massage lengthens muscles. These are all claims that can be found to be made about the benefits of sports massage. It’s fair to say that over the years, I’ve probably made similar claims and used such claims…

Massage for Levator Scapula

Massage for Levator Scapula

Most massage therapists would probably consider that the levator scapula is one of the more significant muscles of the neck and shoulder complex. Massaging and changing the tone of the levator scapula can resolve the pain and discomfort that many clients feel in the neck. According to Ian Harvey, aka Massage Sloth, around 80-90% of stiff neck or crick in the neck then levator scapula is the main culprit. Also forward head posture leads to the lev scap being in…

Frequently asked questions mobile massage therapists get asked

Firstly as a therapist good body mechanics are crucial if you want to have longevity in your career so you use other massage “tools” (such as forearms, knuckles, etc) so that…

Massage Apps Sydney

Seemingly there are quite a few people who think that there is a potentially great business opportunity to create Uber for massage type businesses ie utilise a Sydney massage app so that you can book a mobile massage on demand. There seems to be a new app being created virtually every month or so. I have written previously about the disadvantages (and advantages) of an Uber for massage type service but this article talks more about Sydney Mobile Massage Apps…
