Michelle West
Today my dear friend Michelle died of breast cancer. She valiantly fought her disease for five and half years. I will miss her immensely. She helped me transition to life back in the United States. She was my walking partner. She shared dreams and ideas with me. She took me to religion and yoga class with her. She was one of my three book group buddies. She loved our sauna. She let me practice massage on her every week. She taught me how to be a better therapist. She had the hairdo (bald) that I have never dared to have, but always wanted. She remembered my birthday every year. But more than anything, she was an inspiration to me to be my best and live life to its fullest.

Shoulder Surgery

1/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Last fall a client had a second shoulder surgery to remove excess scar tissue in his glenohumeral joint. His first surgery had been only 18 months prior to this surgery. I offered to massage him several times a week for the first two weeks to see if we could prevent scar tissue from adhering. He has visited a me a few times since then. He has given me permission to share our experience with his healing as it relates to massage.

His Purpose for Massage Therapy

His goal is to avoid the tight scar tissue which caused problems after the first surgery. We don't know how often he will need to continue massage therapy. He is paying attention to his body and coming in whenever he notices the beginning of the deep dull tightness that was constantly present after his first surgery.

Massage Helps Relieve Stress!

How Successful People Stay Calm

An article on LinkedIn by Dr. Travis Bradberry says, "The tricky thing about stress (and the anxiety that comes with it) is that it’s an absolutely necessary emotion. Our brains are wired such that it’s difficult to take action until we feel at least some level of this emotional state. In fact, performance peaks under the heightened activation that comes with moderate levels of stress. As long as the stress isn’t prolonged, it’s harmless."

While there  are numerous effective strategies that successful people employ when faced with stress, he identifies ten of the best. 

  1. They Appreciate What They Have
  2. They Avoid Asking “What If?”
  3. They Stay Positive
  4. They Disconnect
  5. They Limit Their Caffeine Intake
  6. They Sleep
  7. They Squash Negative Self-Talk
  8. They Reframe Their Perspective
  9. They Breathe
  10. They Use Their Support System

Read the article for more details.
We all have stress, and it is a necessary part of life. But prolonged stress is harmful. Massage can help reduce stress by helping you relax and allowing you to sleep better.
