FAQ
All the muscles in the human body are comprised of fibrous strands, that expand and contract in order to create movement. Also running contiguously throughout the body is another fibrous material called facia, which grows a bit everyday, and acts as a kind of buffer between muscle groups, and also as a binding agent.
When a muscle experiences trauma (like an acute tear or strain), or remains in a protracted state of contraction (due to ones nervous system misfiring), facial material may grow excessively, and bind the damaged muscle, causing localized pain, that may also refer (or radiate) to surrounding muscular regions.
We call this a Trigger Point.
What are Trigger Points?
What is Trigger Point Therapy?
Trigger Points require a specialized approach to deal with effectively. In order to breakup or melt the facial binding as well as cue the nervous system to begin resending appropriate signals (i.e. telling a group of muscle fibers to uncontract), one must apply sustained pressure to the affected area, sometimes for several minutes at a time.
More than this however, the job of a specialist is to trace overt pain patterns in order to identify the true epicenter(s) of muscular dysfunction.
This can happen in as little as one session, or in severe cases, over the course of many session.
REVIEWS
Joshua took care of my first session... Having trained in trigger point therapy in addition to deep tissue, I found his approach to be very effective in helping me relieve the wear & tear resulting from regular strength training and tennis.
On top of that, Joshua was one of the most friendly and professional masseuses I've met yet and so communicative in both identifying problem areas and offering tips to work them out between sessions.
The studio itself is superbly peaceful and relaxing with complimentary water/tea, calming music and aromatherapy.
Highly recommended for anyone needing quality deep tissue work.
I feel like a million dollars! Wasn't really aware of just how inflexible I'd become. I didn't really feel like anything was wrong. But after a session with Josh, I felt a hundred times better. Since then, I've been going to Josh regularly, with the same fantastic results. No sessions are exactly alike, as Josh is able to detect just what approach is needed for each visit, with each muscle area. Always professional and courteous. I'd highly recommend Josh to anyone.
Best massage I ever got and will definitely be coming back. Went for Josh who definitely knew what he was doing and focused on my problem areas. I never got a deep tissue massage, and he helped me realize what I've been missing out on. 10 stars!
