Breast Massage

There are so many influences that affect the way we view our breasts from pop culture, life experiences and societal views. Consider that breast tissue is made up of adipose tissue (fat), connective tissue, lymphatic vessels, glands, ducts and ligaments. There are muscles that run underneath the breasts: pectoralis major and minor and serratus anterior.

The lymph nodes (located at the sides of the breasts and in the armpits) are responsible for tissue drainage and can become congested for a number of reasons including slouched posture (rounded shoulders), tight or ill fitting bras (bras that dig in and/or leave a red mark) or chest bindings, medical treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy and removal of lymph nodes, as well as scar tissue (after surgery or injury) and edema (chronic congestion in the tissue). Daily stress and shallow breathing can also lead to restricted lymphatic flow. The lymph system works through movement of the body as it doesn't have its own pump like the circulatory system - it runs alongside our blood vessels. Breast massage can be a part of a flowing massage to encourage the circulation and movement of lymph (drainage). Breast massage is an important part of breast health. 

Indications for breast massage:

• congestion
• edema
• scar tissue
• surgery or trauma
• to have the feeling of a complete full body massage
• circulation (drainage)
• pre or post natal

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy is a time where many hormonal changes create constant flux in our bodies, affecting us physically and emotionally. Regular massage therapy treatments can be so beneficial in keeping up with these changes and I recommend monthly (or as needed) treatments for the first 7 months, then more frequently in the final stages of pregnancy.

In addition to the Sutherland-Chan school prenatal massage training, I have completed the TRIMESTERS http://www.trimesters.on.ca massage therapy for pregnancy course. I have also completed Tanya Meyers, RMT pregnancy tutorial for RMTs. I am passionate about the benefits of prenatal massage. After a massage you will feel more relaxed, sleep better, the edema in your feet will reduce, hip pain eased, neck and shoulder pain and headaches helped. 

Pregnancy Massage Therapy can help to: 

• To decrease stress levels
• Increase relaxation and improve sleep
• Improve circulation and reduce edema
• Improve mobility
• Decrease Headaches and neck pain
• Decrease Leg cramps, muscle cramps
• Decrease Sciatic Nerve Pain

 TMJ Treatment

TMJ stands for “temporomandibular joint”. These joints connect your lower jaw to your skull. They act like a hinge which helps you with movements like talking and chewing.

Temporomandibular disorders, or TMD, are disorders of these joints or the associated nerves and jaw muscles. These disorders have several different causes, ranging from jaw injuries to teeth grinding and more. TMD usually affects one side of your jaw more than the other, or it might only affect one side.

About a third of the population experiences at least one symptom of TMD. Massage can be a great tool to help relieve the discomfort of TMJD.

Symptoms of TMJ Dysfunction include:

• Jaw pain
• Pain when eating or chewing
• Popping or clicking noises when opening or closing your mouth
• Headaches
• Soreness in jaw muscles
• Pain in the temples
• Earaches
