Date: 2019-10-18

It's not a mystery that if you want to have a long and prosperous life, you have to invest in the health and longevity of your body. You've heard this before. However, this isn't about self-care with exercise, diet, and self-massage - although all those things are important.

Here we want to show you how your massage practice can become part of your self-care by simply shifting some of the ways that you deliver massage to your clients.

The good news is there are reliable, effective ways to bolster your body, your energy, and your career without having to take more time out of your day to do it. The great news is taking care of your body in ways that support your life also supports your health and vitality in all the areas of your life!

Rocking is sedating, it creates a biological relaxation response for both you and your client via your parasympathetic nervous system.When a rocking motion is utilized with proper ergonomics and postural alignment, the pressure is taken off the therapist and delivered to the client - where it should be.

Performing massage while seated is an extremely effective way to take the strain off of your lower body joints, including hips, low back, knees, and sacroiliac. The support of using a seat such as the BodySaver Bench creates stability and the height needed to deliver effective pressure during a massage session. You can use your whole body to deliver massage when you are seated - it's like having an extra set of hands!

Regardless of how old you are now, if you continue to enjoy regular massage you will live a long and happy life.
