My experiences over the years, giving and receiving massages, brought me to the point of entitling this book, 'It Goes Deeper Than the Muscle.' I often discuss how my clients may anticipate a release and sometimes delayed effect in my pre-massage consultations, both physically and even emotionally.
Sometimes things are going on in our physical body that the doctor cannot pick up, but we still have symptoms. It also happens when you get a massage, and it feels suitable for a little while, only for the tension to come back. When this happens, it's more than likely related to something that goes deeper than the muscle; although, it may be stored in the muscles. After all, if you are holding on to things you need to let go of, it has to go somewhere. It's like the way Covid-19 affects people with underlying issues. We all have underlying issues that we can nurse. We have so many things that we deal with, known and unknown, which affect us in so many ways. The unknown can go back as early as conception, birth, or childhood. It could also be something that happened in our teenage years or adulthood that we did not know affected us. In addition, any trapped emotions held in our parents at conception go to us.
The goal of this book is for you to get to the root of the problem and experience freedom. I challenge you to make self-care a lifestyle while attaining self-discovery.
