MASSAGE Why Massage? The manipulation of tissue to relax clumps of knotted muscle fiber, increase circulation, and release patterns of chronic tension works by restoring mobility, improving circulation, decreasing blood pressure, and relieving stress. It addresses musculosketletal pain, especially lower-back and neck pain; pain from muscle underuse or overuse; and pain from adhesions or scars. According to Jame Waslaski and Chris Cunningham in “Massage Magazine last year, The structural components in the human body include the bones, connective tissue, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, muscles, fat and the various components of the nervous system. Structural integration helps the body shift back into proper structural and functional alignment in two ways: It removes tensions and restrictions in areas that have been held tight, and it balances the myofascial relationships throughout the body. When restricted fascia is released and repositioned, the body returns to its optimal structural position. At Czech Us Out, our mutual goal is to utilize various modalities to assist our clients in returning their bodies to their optimal structural position.
