Heather Wibbels 615.294-6672 Mind and Body of Brentwood |
The power of touch Before words, before sight, before all other sensations, there was touch. As babies, touch is present before language, before we can focus our eyes. It is the initial means by which we interact with the world. The skin is the largest organ in the human body touch is the only sense that two people can share simultaneously. Massage uses the power of touch to manipulate the soft tissues of the human body. The benefits of massage range from relieving pain and muscle soreness to improving mood and promoting relaxation. Massage creates a healing and self-aware environment, giving us the opportunity to take time for ourselves and care for ourselves. In a world where self-nurturing is undervalued, the time we take to give ourselves the gift of massage is time we give back to ourselves. Massage pulls us back into our bodies and reminds us that we are visceral, sensual beings who need touch in our lives as a basic need of our humanity. Since so much of our lives is lived at "internet speed" these days, taking an hour or two to slow down and devote the time to ourselves is a well-earned treasure.
