Restorative Massage is Not What You Think

Most people book a massage when they experience chronic pain in their muscles and joints, especially in their neck, shoulders and back. They want a quick, in-and-out experience, but don’t realize that the effects of a one-off massage are short lived. Restorative massage, while relaxing, works best when experienced on a regular basis. 

Restorative massage blends relaxation techniques, deep tissue work and movement to allow the whole body to release and expose the issues lying within. Nicole Sellars, owner of Restorative Massage & Skincare, also uses her natural intuition to guide her towards the body’s pain. 

“By quieting the nervous system I am able to hear what the body is saying,” said Nicole. The body is inherently wise, it wants to self heal when I practice bodywork I’m able to experience information about the client without knowing where it came from.”

While a one-time massage can feel relaxing and help you relieve stress, it’s the consistent body work that helps you see--and feel--lasting results. We endure stress and trauma each day of our lives, even if it's minor. Our bodies hold onto any physical mental and emotional stress and trauma that we experience daily and in our life. Eventually our physical bodies start to break down and we all experience pain that has been stored in our muscles.

Nicole’s approach to restorative massage is simple: she wants to create a safe space for her clients to receive the full benefits of intuitive therapeutic massage. Often times our body holds on longer than we’d like them too, therefore she always recommends her clients coming in on a regular basis so they receive the ultimate benefits of physical emotional and mental relief throughout the whole body. Creating a consistent nurturing relationship between Nicole and her clients and their bodies is where her massage and lasting results set her apart. 

If you’ve been carrying around pain that you simply don’t know where it came from, how to feel better or where to start,  book a massage with Restorative Massage & Skincare today and let Nicole’s expert approach help you on your journey towards healing.
