Some can handle high sensory inputs than others.

Some have a lower tolerance because of their heightened awareness or because of avoiding pain signals.

When you are continually taught something is painful- “is not normal” or should be avoided, then myofascial therapy can be a learning process for you to understand.

Desensitizing these areas of discomfort brings correction to the body. It allows you to learn how to breathe and release discomfort with your breath. This typically reflects how quickly someone can respond to treatment. Learning how you do not have to identify with it anymore.

Become hopeful. Trust in your body’s intelligence.

It’s the therapist role to know when and where this should be tolerated. Listening to your responses is important for lasting results.

The physical body can deter change quickly but the mind needs to catch up to the change.

When you believe there can be a change then there will be. Regardless of how big or small of the change. It’s important to set aside expectations and open your mind to the idea it can be possible. It helps quality of life for sure, to be able to decompress a bit and not feel so stressed in a physical body state. The mental state catches up when you are ready.

This brings new awareness to yourself unlike before. I always hear “I didn’t know that was there”. That’s a good indication the therapist found an area that is holding stress without you realizing. Once you realize, then you can let it go!

My name is Ayanna, the licensed massage therapist here at Heal Through Balance. My passion is in guiding others back to a grounded, healthy body.

Myofascial therapy is a tool that allows us to become more aware of the tension we are constantly holding. The only way to notice the shift is when it’s relieved, there are many ways to do this as part of your self care routine. Pain is the way your body speaks to you to let you know your attention needs to be placed elsewhere. Pain relief comes when you notice these imbalances in the massage. It can be very simple!

By continually maintaining the health of your muscular system it enhances exercise performance, quality of life and injury prevention.
