Stress…The Hidden Killer -- massage london ontario


The physical effects of stress have historically aided in the survival of the individual. The release of adrenalin speeds the heart rate, pumps more blood to the major muscles and changes various autonomic nervous functions such as the rate of digestion. These changes aid the individual in the "flight or fight" stage of survival. Ordinarily, simple relaxation, following the removal of the source of the stress, returns body function to normal levels.

The flight or fight response gave individuals the strength and stamina to survive the dangerous situations. Unfortunately, the flight or fight response to most modern sources of stress is not appropriate. With the exception of more extreme sports, rarely is the modern individual faced with life threatening situations that cause us stress. Instead, stress is caused by deadlines, traffic, financial concerns and relationships. The inappropriateness of the fight or flight response, totally ingrained in our instinctive memory, releases no stress and in fact can add to the stress of the situation.

Likewise, in this time of chronic stress, the relaxational phase that helps to restore the body's autonomic levels to their normal levels is no longer available. Constant over activation of the autonomic nervous system can lead to physical and emotional strain on the individual. As the immune system is effected, many stress-induced symptoms can be exhibited including:

Swedish Massage or relaxational massage london ontario with Aromatherapy in London Ontario

The term "Swedish Massage" refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart. The main purpose of Swedish massage (as opposed to deeper therapeutic massage techniques) is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles.

Swedish massage london ontario shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. It increases circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable. Swedish Massage also stimulates the skin and nervous system and soothes the nerves themselves at the same time.

What is Reiki Healing and Energy Transfer?
The word Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is a Japanese kanji for universal life-force energy.

When the flow of the "Life-Force Energy" is disrupted, weakened or blocked, emotional or health problems tend to occur.

Reiki Holistic Healing

Reiki is a holistic, healing method which works by balancing and increasing the energy flow of ki (life force energy) throughout the system. This simple, non-invasive healing system works with the Higher Self of the Receiver to promote health and well being of the entire physical, emotional and psychic body. It is the augmented and balanced energy which enhances and accelerates the body's innate healing ability. The energy provided by the Reiki session allows the body to function at its peak ability.

The energy is directed through the Practitioner's hands either directly on or just above the body. The Practitioner acts as a gathering point and focus of the ki, which is present in all things, and allows for the flow of energy through their body. The client's own body draws off the amount of energy that is required. The simplicity of a Reiki session may raise some skepticism, however, after experiencing it, many clients keep coming back for more of those relaxing feelings.

Reiki is power, light and love.

What Can Reiki Do In London Ontario?
Reiki is excellent for accelerating healing of many physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues. Reiki can:

What happens during a Reiki Session?
The client, fully clothed, lies on the treatment table. The practitioner's hands remain in a stationary position, gently on or slightly above the body (depending on the client's preference) through several positions. The private areas are worked on 4-6" above the body. There is no manipulation of the skin or tissue. Reiki is not massage.

Although the Practitioner draws and focuses the energy for the client, the client's body must accept and use the energy. During the session, the client is encouraged to relax and practice meditation. The Practitioner will assist with a variety of meditation techniques to aid in the energy transfer and balancing. As Buddha said, "With our thoughts we shape our reality." And so, visualization, meditation and positive outlook on the part of the client all aid the Reiki session, increasing its effectiveness and results.

Many individuals report feeling cold, pulsating heat, or a tingling sensation during a session, and most enter a calm, relaxed state. In some, chronic or acute pain can diminish or completely vanish. Sometimes allergies and other infirmities completely disappear. It's different for each person.

It's important to remember that, whatever is troubling us, 'we didn't get this way overnight' and we won't 'recover overnight', either. Reiki is not any more magical than any other modality or allopathic medicine. Healing takes commitment and it takes time... one moment at a time.

How Will I Feel After a Reiki Session?
The results of any Reiki session vary between clients. Clients report feeling:

What is Aromatherapy and Essential Oils?
Aromatherapy is the art and science of using essential oils, the aromatic extracts of plant and flowers, for psychological and physical well-being. These essential oils are inhaled into the lungs or pass through the skin to offer both psychological and physical benefits. The aroma of the natural essential oil stimulates the brain to trigger a reaction and the natural chemicals of the essential oil are drawn into the lungs and can also supply physical benefit.


What Can Aromatherapy and Essential Oils Do
Of the five senses, our sense of smell is the most primitive and most closely associated with our emotions and how our body responds to them.

In fact, studies have shown that the sense of smell can dramatically affect the physical body. A study done in 1999 by Stockhurst & Gritzmann demonstrated how smell can trigger responses in the brain. For four days, insulin was injected into healthy male volunteers and, naturally, their blood glucose fell. At the same time, they were exposed to a smell. On the fifth day they were just given the smell, and, their blood glucose fell again.

Aromatherapy uses the innate properties of the essential oils to create reactions by the brain and body. By the careful mixing of essential oils, a variety of results can be achieved. Aromatherapy is not a miracle cure that will cure serious illnesses but rather a holistic solution which can aid in the healing.

Various blends can:

What is an Aromatherapy Session?
After a short interview to determine your concerns and needs, a personalized blend will be developed for your use. Depending on your lifestyle and needs, these blends can be used in massage oil, bath, diffuser or atomizer.

Aromatherapy experiences can be combined with all massage and Reiki sessions.

 Aromatherapy and Other Holistic or Traditional Medicines
Aromatherapy should never be considered a replacement for another modality of treatment. Never discontinue any medications or session plans your medical practitioner or other holistic healer has deemed necessary, unless you first speak with them personally. Aromatherapy works in concert with all other forms of therapy. It is a wonderful complement to other treatments. We can all work together to get you feeling healthier, happier and more whole. This is the holistic approach.


What is Crystal Therapy?
Crystal Therapy is the ancient art of using gems, stones and crystals to aid in mental, physical and spiritual healing. Crystals have been throughout history for healing, personal reflection and meditation.

Each living organism has an energy field suffusing and controlling the body. Crystals, due to their unique vibrational frequencies, work well with the human energy field. They can move, absorb, focus, direct and diffuse energy within the body.
Crystals therapies can be implemented in a variety of ways. For instance, gems, stones and crystals can be laid on the body over the chakra points. Each chakra resonates to a particular color, so by laying a stone of that color over the chakra, the chakras open, align and blend with one another. When the chakra system is balanced, the physical body is able to innately self-correct and heal.

Wearing or carrying crystals can be effective in a variety of instances. The constant exposure to the crystalline energy helps the body to find its natural rhythm again. The crystal's perfect atomic structure, gives out a resonance of perfection, a pattern for the body to follow. Crystal Healing is a therapy which is non-invasive and can be used in conjunction with a number of other therapies and orthodox medicine.

What is a Crystal Therapy Session
A short interview will determine your concerns and needs. Following the interview, the correct crystals and gems will be developed and a therapy plan will be created. If necessary, a list of crystals and gems will be created for you or the items can be obtained for you.

Crystal Therapy experiences can be combined with Reiki to augment the session.

Crystal Therapy and Other Holistic or Traditional Medicines
Crystal Therapy should never be considered a replacement for other modality of treatment. Never discontinue any medications or session plan your medical practitioner or other holistic healer has deemed necessary, unless you first speak with them personally. Crystal Therapy works in concert with all other forms of therapy. It is a wonderful complement to other treatments. We can all work together to get you feeling healthier, happier and more whole. This is the holistic approach.
