Message From Helen
Hi,
Easter and Anzac day is a week away. In our own family we often go home to the country and catch up with family and friends. This year we all get to take a bigger break. The schools’ holidays are nearly here; soon the teachers will come in and get their muscles de-stressed and get their energy balance up – ready for their break and next term.
Mums and Dads (including Grandparents): Is your body ready for the holidays and all the actives of your children or are you carrying a pain or injury somewhere that needs sorting out? Most of the time, it is the muscles that have gone into overload.
Quick Tips
Helen
Tip #35: When we feel pain such as headache, shoulder ache, and neck ache, your body is telling you, “I am in trouble please help me.” Many ignore these symptoms and think more exercise, just run it out! Often when the pain get worse you’ll have pulled a muscle.
This is the body’s way of telling you I need a massage – HELP!
Lara
Tip #13: We have some people come for massage when their injury is so painful and as one lady said, she waits until her right shoulder blade muscles are really a stabbing pain. This takes longer to recover from old injures in muscles. A week old injury is easier to release than overloaded, painful and traumatised muscles that are in pain for years and years.
Why suffer in pain? Tell me what you think at the Chelsea massage blog.

How Do You Deal with Your Anxiety?
Many find taking tablets stop the headache this time so what will you do, tomorrow and the next day, in the build up of tablets in your body? I always think if I take them all the time, what happens when I might really need it for an injury? They would be ineffective. Others take tablets for anxiety, and often anxiety still stays very high day-in and day-out.
You may ask, “What does anxiety feel like?” It feels like fatigue, being tired, aching muscles, stomach hurts, confusion and upset.
Where does anxiety come from? Well, it is often starts when you have had a trauma, grief, accident, or operation, and when something comes out of left field you are not prepared and you don’t know how to cope with that issue.
When you are fatigued, many people mistake this for anxiety and often depression. They often look and feel the same. When you have a massage, your energy returns and you feel great for a week, then down you go again.
When this happens, this measurement tells you that you’re working really hard and many times you can have this fatigue come on over years and years. What happens is in your energy tank, like the fuel tank in a car, you are on your reserves. It requires 100x more effort to keep it all together.
A recovery phase of massage treatment is the return of your energy fuel tank to nearly full and this is when you start to feel good again. With each regular massage comes freedom of movement and the ability to enjoy life again.
One Lady came to me who had a fulltime job, and each night could not go out with the girls, each day she struggled to get out of bed and be at work before 10am. Most of the time she had screaming headache after screaming headache.
Work and sleep was all she could do. After the second massage she started to feel like she had some of her energy back and managed to stay out to 9 pm one night and the headaches had stopped! Her body had been going into burnout.
Have a check-in with yourself if this is sounding a little bit like you as this is becoming common in the clinic.
A massage releases the fatigue, opens the muscles and relaxes the mind to help you feel calm. Massage stops anxiety, which causes a build up of tension in the muscles, pain in the neck and shoulders, headaches, grinding of your teeth and earaches. This happens because the muscles are doing the entire workload.
Take an office job; the amount of sitting and tapping on the keyboard causes vibration back up through your arms which causes muscle pain. Massage works really well to loosen the fibres of the muscles, allows free movement, and prevents having to have an operation down the track because pins and needles numbness is so painful.

Pregnancy Massage
Over the last few months many pregnant mums have had their babies and are now coming in to release the muscles in their neck and shoulders from holding and carrying their baby, taking them in and out of the car, and lifting and leaning over into the car. All this can cause stomach and back pain, nausea, overwhelmed and non coping Mums. Massage is perfect for releasing tension all over the body.
One Mum has brought her baby with her and because mum had a regular massage while pregnant, the baby has heard the music before in the womb and was relaxed, smiling, and went off to sleep for the whole one hour massage. It was lovely to have both mum and baby together while mum had her massage. What a lovely way to go, her staying on top and keeping her stress minimal.
