I have created a very unique style of massage where I use my legs as much as my arms which allows me to simultaneously massage different areas of the body. I may sit, lean, and get over and under my clients for a lovely combination of movement, stretching, and massaging. All of which helps to integrate the nervous system with my soft tissue work. I also check in and inform my clients throughout their sessions to make sure that they are comfortable.</span></p>

During this time, I have created my own style of massage that not only provides one of the most relaxing and therapeutic experiences for my clients but also helps them to feel more comfortable and at peace in their bodies. This has become the dominant theme of my bodywork as I have worked through my personal issues stemming from unwanted and traumatic touch experiences in my early life. By learning, receiving, and giving this style of massage, I have made a lot of progress in my healing journey and helped many other people make similar progress with theirs. <br /><br /></span></p>

Hello, Thank you for your email. There is no evidence to support a no pain, no gain approach. And too much pressure can damage your tissues. The clients who experience relief from painful massages could be influenced by that massage therapists narrative or the techniques supposed benefits aka placebo effect. Theres nothing wrong with a hurt so good type of pressure but if youre flinching a lot or in pain then let the therapist know. If the next day youre so sore that youre stiff, have bruises, or even feel sick then it was too much. I have clients who feel better after receiving light, medium, or firm pressure massages. And so it should be about what feels good to you. Respectfully, Toni Ramirez
