I am a professionally trained, and qualified Massage Therapist in. I am based in Fleet, Hampshire. I can either do a deeply relaxing massage with no deep work on troublesome areas; or we can spend more time working on the aches and pains and easing them out with deep tissue work β you choose what you want for your massage. This session is more specialised. There is much anecdotal evidence that gentle massage can help to ease the symptoms of your cancer and the treatments you are undergoing; clients have told their therapists that it helps with pain from the cancer or the treatment; it helps reduce anxiety, and the stress of waiting for tests or the results of tests; it aids better sleep and just helps with feeling better overall.
Massage is supported by the MacMillan Cancer charity as a supportive therapy. Do you feel that your scar is lumpy, bumpy, stuck somewhere inside of you, red or does it cause you incontinence or painful intercourse? Sharon Wheeler has been developing her techniques, and teaching them worldwide, for the last 40 years. There is no age limit for the scar β there has been improvement in scars that are 20 years old. Both ankles were were also swollen with oedema. I worked with general massage on his legs and feet, every week, for about 13 weeks and the last few sessions saw him with his heel almost on the ground, he had more feeling in his foot and he was starting to weight bear, a little, on that affected leg.
The massage helps to release muscles that are tightening up due to under-use, helps with the oedema and gets the blood flowing better, feeding and oxygenating all the muscles and nerves. Both are being improved by weekly massages. My lady client is years old and she finds the regular massage eases her legs and helps with her oedema. D o you often feel like a pressure cooker? That you are holding yourself together so tightly that if you let go of one thing, you will explode and your life will implode?
Do you take your frustrations and stress out on your family, friends or colleagues? Is that causing you more stress and extra problems to deal with? Are you having an extra drink every evening to help you calm down and relax? Everyone is looking for more peace in their lives, more time that is not busy.
We are bombarded every day with messages about how to be more healthy β exercise, eating healthily, meditation etc. Many people know they are not keeping up with life and experts estimate that the vast majority of disease now, is stress related.
