Today was the first day of neuromuscular, and therapeutic massage. We have started, as always, a little behind. Everyone has just returned from break and so remembering the muscles is a little slow going for everyone.

We are looking at tissue dysfuncition and the cause of most stresses in the body. Either caused by physical aliments or mental negativity.

I have learned that most knots, or tight spots consisit of built-up acids and other byproducts from the body. These are mostly caused from iscemia, or a lack of blood flow. As massage therapists we release these tissues and allow blood to re-enter and therefore break-up all of the waste.

This could also be the cause of many emotional blocks as well. In the sense that we have blocks that are not recieving the correct amount of positive thought flowing thru. If you just stretch your mind, or emotional state you can allow room for those positive thoughts to enter in.

There are so many ways that the body informs us on how to become more aware.
