Foam Rolling and Why You Should Try It
One of our popular techniques here in Peaceful Warriors Wellness Center is part of our Therapeutic Massage service called Myofascial Release. Myofascial Release is a massage therapy technique that releases a broad area of muscles that would be causing pain or discomfort. The use of knowledge of muscle connectivity and trigger points across the body helps narrow down what is causing the pain but isn’t directly the source of the pain. For example, being you may have knee pain, but looking at the hip and back muscles and ankle may be the areas that are tight and causing the knee pain. It’s similar to deep tissue, without it necessarily deep pressure.

Post COVID-19 Vaccine Massages
As COVID-19 vaccines are being administered across the country, the number is growing every day. We wanted to start discussing how long client’s should wait before receiving a massage post injection. There are currently 2 doses about a month apart for the vaccine. If there is no allergic reaction initially- people will find to be in some form of discomfort for the next few days. Usually some form of swelling/tenderness/pain at the injection site.
We highly recommend to wait 3 days post injection (for each one- the first and second dose) before getting a massage. As with any massage as well- we want our clients to be feeling 100% and not ill when getting a massage for their safety and the massage therapist’s safety.

Medicupping is another form of massage therapy where cups or a machine is used to create a vacuum affect that pulls the muscle into the cup- which then lifts and hydrates the muscle. It helps assist in the removal of toxins due to the blood flow carrying the debris through the lymph nodes or pores.
