Touch Therapy

It’s always perfectly fine to ask, and I’m more than happy to offer one. A hug can be a simple expression of appreciation, especially for clients who have experienced pain or tension for months and feel relief after a massage.

Our muscles can hold tension in many ways through soreness, tenderness, numbness, or even ticklishness. Tight muscles, restricted fascia (the connective tissue that surrounds and supports your muscles), and overactive nerves can all make certain areas feel extra sensitive. Fascia that has hardened or formed adhesions can create sore or ticklish spots, and overactive nerves can heighten that sensation even more.

It is one of the most vital of the five senses that we use for interaction with people and things around us everyday. If we fail to receive or give touch, we are denying ourselves a basic human necessity. One of which helps us to thrive. On a day-to-day basis I see people from all walks of life that are touch deficient.
