🫁 WAIT… YOU HAVE “BREATHING MUSCLES”?!
When you think of massage, you probably think tight neck, sore back, aching muscles or stress relief.
But here’s something pretty cool…
You use muscles to breathe, too! 😮
Your diaphragm, ribs, abdominals, chest, neck and upper back all help with breathing — and just like any other muscles, they can become tight, tense and overworked.
💨 That’s where massage may help.
Working on areas like the neck, shoulders, upper back and muscles around the rib cage can help release tension, improve mobility and help the body feel less restricted and more relaxed.
And don’t forget the nervous system! 🧠
Think about what happens when you're stressed:
Shoulders ↑
Jaw tightens 😬
Chest gets tense
Breathing gets quicker and shallower
Then think about that moment on the massage table when your entire body goes…
“Ahhhhhhh.” 😌
That’s why I LOVE pairing massage with Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT). 🎶
