In today's world, there always seems to be "too much to do, and not enough time do to it".
We always seem to find time to take care of others - our family, our job, our friends - but we never seem to find time to take care of ourselves.
Whether you have a general sense of fatigue and soreness, or something has recently happened to prevent you from participating in your own life, your body is trying to tell you to "Stop, and listen!"
There is nothing better than a highly-trained, knowledgable therapist, to help you understand what your body is going through, and to address the muscular pain and dysfunction that you are experiencing. Stress reduction is key to living pain-free, and allowing you to return to your daily acitivities.
Massage therapy should involve "active participation" between yourself and your therapist, with both of you working together to find the solution to a healthier, pain-free life.
Remember: Take care of your body, and your body will take care of you.
