 Many people remain hesitant to schedule a massage because they feel discomforted in the idea of "dressing down" and allowing a stranger
to work on them. Little do they know, at Personalized Harmony privacy is our specialty. How do we help with this? 1.) Our building has frosted windows to begin the process on closing off the outside world and giving you time to breathe and take a break. 2.) You "dress down" to your comfort level. Depending on the part of the body that will be focused on, it is suggested that for example: Your provider will focus on your upper body. It is suggested for both men and women to remove their clothing on their upper body. This allows the provider to solely work on the muscle without irritating the skin from the fabric. 3.) Nothing is exposed! The entire time your body will be covered with a comfortable blanket, and at no point will it be moved unless you switch from the frontside to the backside, and even then you remain covered! 4.) Our Providers are Professionals. They are skilled to assist your body in getting the physical results you need, and go a step further to relieving emotional stress as well. You and your body are interconnected. When one part is taken care of, so is the other.  Who is Kristen Douglas?Kristen Douglas is our newest member of our team!

Her bright positivity shines at the introduction of every client, and it can be guaranteed discomfort doesn't exist when having a session with Kristen. What is Trigger Point Therapy?Trigger Point Therapy involves techniques that require locating pressure points that may be a culprit to creating tension within one's body. As Kristen locates the pressure points she uses her skills to painlessly relax the area. What is Myofascial Release?First let's explain what Fascia is: Fascia is a thin sheath of tissue that covers your muscles that is right below your skin. Occasionally, fascia can actually itself become less flexible causing you to feel discomfort in your muscle. Once your fascia becomes tightened, your muscles it covers looses some movement and the muscle and the fascia could work against each other causing pain or tension. Myofascial release is gently targeting the fascia below the skin and with the right skills the fascia can once again be renewed, relaxed, and movement is revitalized for both the muscle and the fascia. What Else can Kristen Do?Kristen is greatly fit for Deep Tissue Massage, Firm Relaxation, Hot Stones Specialty, CBD Included Massage, Headache Relief, Relax and Release, and her very own Himalayan Hot Stones Specialty.

Stretching before you begin your gardening is an important key in protecting your body from injury. Also stretch periodically during to help alleviate aches/pains.
For shoveling, make sure you’re using good body alignment. Be sure to lean as much of your body weight into the shovel as possible while digging. When dumping the shovel, use your whole body. Turn your whole rather than just your upper body, and not just your arms. When pulling weeds, grab a stool or a bucket! This will save your knees, as well as your hips and back by removing pressure. If you need to lean/bend forward to pull a weed, try to sit on your “sitting bones” and keep your posture and avoid rounding your back. When lifting heavy bags (mulch, soil, etc.) be sure to lift with your legs. Bend at your hips and knees and as you lower, keep your spine straight. Your hips and knees are stronger to handle the weight of lifting. Some other easy things to do are;
Chiropractic/Massage Alliance Combining massage therapy and chiropractic treatment improves nervous system function as a whole. The muscles inside your body hold your bones together. Massage before a chiropractic adjustment allows for an easier adjustment. When the bones are aligned, there is no pressure on the nerves, causing less tension and accelerating your recovery time tremendously. Chiropractic/Massage therapy care also aids in;
Creating an Active Treatment plan is best for chronic pain and/or immediate needs. This would include 2-3 chiropractic adjustments a week, with 1 massage weekly. An alternative to this would be, bi-weekly recovery or monthly maintenance.

Body During your busy schedules, you put your body through countless amounts of stress without even realizing until you reach those moments of pesky aches and pains when trying to sit down, get up, or attempt to relax for that short time you have for yourself.

Luckily, Massage is one of the many treatments that can efficiently target those overused muscles.

It truly is a natural solution to picking yourself up after running yourself down in the world we are in today. -In compliments to Andrea Stanley, The Mind-Body Benefits of Getting a Massage- Plantar Fasciitis is one of the most common causes of terrible foot pain. At the bottom of your foot, there is a thick band of tissue known as your Fascia, that connects to your toes and your heel bone. This pain is usually recognized through sharp pain after you take your first couple of steps in the morning, and can also be triggered by long periods of standing/walking. It is usually caused by inadequate support in your shoes, other than that a cause is very hard to pinpoint.
What can i do to help the pain? There are plenty of natural at home remedies to help decrease the aggravating pain. Things you should try: --Use a band, or towel to wrap around your toes and pull your foot back towards you while your leg is straight, this will help stretch the fascia in your foot, and the tendons connected that is also contributing to the tension. --Use a frozen water bottle and roll it underneath your foot for 5-10 minutes. --Try using a bucket or tub of hot water with Epsom salt and golf balls. Roll the golf balls under your feet to break up the tension. You can do this for up to 30 minutes, you can even use the lengths of your favorite tv show episodes for each foot. Magnesium is very important for your body because of its countless benefits. High dietary magnesium intake is linked to significantly reduced mortality in people who are high risk for cardiovascular disease. Magnesium helps the heart maintain a healthy rhythm in your body as it helps with blood pressure.
What is it? Magnesium is an ample mineral found naturally in your body, in foods, and is available as a supplement as well as in medicine. Magnesium is a substance that is in more than 300 enzyme systems that regulate diverse biochemical reactions in the body. This includes protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation. This mineral is also required for energy production, and glycolysis.

Nevertheless we can’t forget those moments of feeling overworked, and your brain just can’t seem to maintain focus. We are moving through our work and our days continously, forgetting about smelling the roses, forgetting that there is some kind of connection between your body and your mind. Forgetting about living in harmony.
