If you are looking to experience the benefits of Massage in the Denver area visit us at Peace of Mind Massage on Old South Pearl Street in Platt Park close by to Washington Park, Capital Hill, Cherry Creek, Glendale and central to all of Denver, Colorado.

There are so many benefits of massage. I believe everyone can benefit from Massage Therapy in one way or another. The basic physiological benefits of Massage Therapy include improved circulation, lowered blood pressure, reduced stress and anxiety, and decreased muscle pain. Did you know the benefits of Massage also include promoting lymph circulation, increased Serotonin and Dopamine levels(your brain’s happy chemicals:), and reduced Respiratory Rate? Massage can even relieve constipation and stimulate digestion. These benefits of Massage can be felt after just one session. If you include regular Massage into your health management routine you will experience even more benefits of Massage over time. If you have suffered scarring from surgeries or injuries, Massage Therapy for Scar Tissue reduction is a medically recommended treatment. Can Massage Therapy treat cellulite? There is evidence that shows regular Massage improves skin condition and reduces surface dimpling of cellulite.

At our Massage and Wellness clinic in Denver, we see a wide variety of clients looking to experience the benefits of massage for so many different reasons. I would say the most popular reason is muscle pain, soreness, or fatigue. The benefits of massage for your muscles include reduced Trigger Point formation, manually separated muscle fibers, increased Range of Motion, improved performance (Balance & Posture), improved Motor Skills, and improved muscular nutrition. Flexibility and strength in your muscles and joints is improved because Massage lengthens tight, shortened muscles and tones soft, weak muscles. All of these benefits of massage for your muscles is achieved by a skilled Massage Therapist who knows the muscular system well. At Peace of Mind, our Denver Licensed Massage Therapists are Nationally Certified. National Certification ensures our Massage Therapists have passed an exam which consists heavily of Anatomy and Physiology, and to sustain the Nationally Certified Massage Therapist status requires continuing education through out our career. With our knowledge and skills we have helped many people through muscular injuries, chronic pain disorders, repetitive strain, and athletic training.

The other most popular benefit of Massage is relaxation. Relaxation Massage or Swedish Massage is often requested at our Denver Massage Clinic. We cater to our clients to make the Massage experience as relaxing and comfortable as possible. If you’re in Denver and looking for a Swedish Massage or Relaxation Massage you will enter a world of serenity at Peace of Mind Massage. Our Massage Therapists integrate Massage techniques such as Reflexology Massage, Hot Stone Massage, and Aromatherapy to best achieve the benefits of Massage for relaxation.

The benefits of Massage can only be attained by Massage Therapists who truly care about their client’s health and always deliver result oriented Massage Therapy in an environment that is designed to help the client relax. One important benefit of Massage is the safe physical connection made between Licensed Massage Therapist and client. It is important for everyone to experience healing touch in a safe way by Licensed and trained Massage professionals. Communication is key to a great overall Massage experience. Massage Therapists have the ability to help improve your lifestyle habits by suggested home care between Massage appointments. You can ask the therapist to talk to you about what they feel while massaging you to gain new body awareness, or zone out and get some rest as improved sleeping habits is another great benefit of Massage! Just let the Massage Therapist know which benefit of Massage you’re most interested in focusing on that day.

Massage Therapy in 80210-Why do you need Massage?

For Massage Therapy near 80210, 80209, 80208, 80110, 80113, 80222, and 80223 go toPeace of Mind Therapeutic Massage and Wellness on Old South Pearl Street in Platt Park close by to Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Capital Hill, Englewood, and central to all of Denver, Colorado.

Colorado is known to be a very active state with our hiking in the summertime and skiing or snowboarding in the winter. In Denver, on a daily basis Denverites show why we are the fittest state in the nation by being active at all ages. If you take a drive on Downing street you’ll notice people running and walking around Washington Park, even on snowy days. On Old South Pearl street many people ride their bikes to the local restaurants, boutiques, and wellness centers such as Peace of Mind Massage.

When you are active with exercise of any kind, you need Massage as a part of your regular health maintenance routine. When you lift weights you are contracting muscles to build tension and therefore definition and strength. To counteract this action it is important to get regular massages that incorporate stretching and muscle relief. You will notice less soreness and pain with working out and better performance during your athletic activities when receiving regular massages.
Active

Everyone handles their stress differently. Many people store stress in their muscles. Clenching fists, clenching your jaw, rounding your shoulders, slumping in your seat, tightening your low back muscles-all things we do when we are under stress. Do you talk on the phone or work on the computer a lot at work? Neck pain and shoulder tension are typical when you have to spend a lot of time on the phone or computer. Especially if that phone call or e-mail is a tense or stressful one!
Stress

Mothers with young children or expecting mothers can greatly benefit from the stress and tension relief Massage Therapy has to offer. I call it “mommyitis” when a mother is especially sore on one shoulder from holding the little ones and cooking the meals, cleaning the house, etc. with the free hand. Don’t forget to switch sides sometimes ladies! Hip and sciatic pain is typical when a woman is expecting. At Peace of Mind Massage in Denver we have a super comfortable bolstering system to safely and effectively massage pregnant women.
Parent

Whether you have a physically demanding, mentally demanding or a combination of both type of job, your job is effecting your health. We are a society of worker bees and we need to take breaks and reward ourselves with healthy things such as Massage Therapy. The best time to relax is when you think you don’t have time to. Clear your mind before a big meeting by getting a Massage. Take time to relax with a Massage instead of a beer after work. See the difference in your mood and ability when you implement Massage into your regular health routine.
Work stress

Peace of Mind Massage offers Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Sports Massage, Prenatal Massage, Hot Stone Therapy, Reflexology, TMJ Syndrome Relief, Headache Relief, and much more.

Neck pain can be caused by many different things. Computer usage, skiing, snowboarding, horseback riding, stress, and more! We hold tension in our necks when doing almost any strenuous activity. Then, on top of what we do when we’re awake, all the funky stuff we do in our sleep can cause terrible neck pain as well. Ever wake up with a stiff neck or a crick in your neck? If you answered yes to this question and if you can recall it happening often, you may greatly benefit from Massage Therapy.

Neck pain sufferers in the Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Capital Hill, Englewood, and other surrounding Denver neighborhoods are going to find no better place than Peace of Mind Therapeutic Massage & Wellness to receive deep therapeutic massage from skilled practitioners trained to locate and relieve those pesky knots.

What are knots? Knots are trigger points, or points of pain and spasm in the muscle that often refer pain, numbness, and tingling to other parts of the body. This shows us the pain pattern, where the pain is coming from or going to.

There are many trigger points in the neck and a skilled Massage Therapist can find them all! With trigger point therapy and deep tissue massage the Massage Therapist will release trigger points and your neck will feel much better. Range of motion will improve and if your neck pain has resulted in tension headaches, they will decrease or go away.

We do not charge extra for use of hot stones or hot/cold ice packs! We do sell hot/cold therapy comfort wraps for you to buy and use at home.

Massage Therapy for TMJ Syndrome in Denver

Denver’s Best TMJ Syndrome Massage can be found at Peace of Mind Therapeutic Massage and Wellness on Old South Pearl Street in Platt Park close by to Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Capital Hill, Englewood, and central to all of Denver, Colorado.

TMJ Syndrome is characterized as pain in the jaw and surrounding structures. TMJ Syndrome can be caused by an array of medical issues such as dental surgery, injury, grinding and clenching of the jaw. Stress can be a component in TMJ Syndrome because many people hold tension in their head, neck, and jaw when under stress. TMJ Syndrome symptoms include headaches, clicking of the jaw, pain while chewing, “lock jaw”, Tinnitus or ringing in the ears, dizziness, and pain or tension in the face, head, and neck muscles.

Treatment of TMJ Syndrome can involve wearing a night guard, bite guards, performing regular exercises for the jaw, and Massage Therapy. Massage Therapy can be very beneficial for those suffering from TMJ Syndrome. If you are in the Denver area and surrounding neighborhoods of Platt Park, Washington Park, Capital Hill, Cherry Creek, Englewood, Littleton, and DTC you can receive affordable and skilled Massage Therapy for TMJ Syndrome at Peace of Mind Therapeutic Massage & Wellness, LLC located on Old South Pearl Street.

Our Massage Therapists are Licensed and Nationally Certified with advanced training in Neuromuscular Therapy, Trigger Point Therapy, Therapeutic Stretching, Medical Massage, Sports Massage, Deep Tissue, and more.

You don’t have to suffer through TMJ Syndrome. Massage Therapy for TMJ Syndrome by our Denver Licensed Massage Therapists has been of great help to many TMJ pain sufferers. Our clients not only receive relief and results, but have actually stated really enjoying the process of getting tension in the jaw muscles worked out.

What to expect during a TMJ Syndrome Massage:
The Massage Therapist will inspect the jaw and go through ranges of motion, using Active Isolated Stretching to strengthen the jaw where it is weak, and to bring balance to both sides of the jaw. The Massage Therapist will also focus on relieving stress and tension in the upper body which can be a underlying cause to TMJ Syndrome. The Massage Therapist will go inside of the mouth with gloves on to do Trigger Point release to the Masseter muscle inter orally. The Masseter muscle is the strongest muscle in the body, it’s primary job is to chew. This muscle is known as the “clenching muscle”. The most trigger points, or points of pain and spasm, collect in this little but strong jaw muscle. The Massage Therapist will also lightly massage the gums and stretch the cheek. The amount of time spent inside the mouth will be anywhere from 10-20 minutes. You will likely feel instant relief and freed up movement and motion of the jaw after the inter oral Massage. You will also likely feel soreness for a day or 2 after the Massage. Use ice on the jaw, neck, and face to alleviate soreness. After the first day or 2 you should feel better than before the Massage. You should reschedule as soon as the pain begins to creep back. The Massage Therapist will instruct you on how to self massage the jaw, inside and out, and give you exercises to do at home. Home care will enhance the effects of Massage Therapy.

If you are experiencing jaw pain with associated headaches and muscle aches you may have TMJ Syndrome. Massage Therapy by skilled and knowledgeable Massage Therapists can help relieve TMJ Syndrome. It is recommended you check with your Physician before starting Massage Therapy treatments for TMJ Syndrome.

Massage Therapy for Tennis Elbow & Tendinitis in Denver

Denver’s Best Tennis Elbow and Tendinitis Massage can be found at Peace of Mind Therapeutic Massage and Wellness on Old South Pearl Street in Platt Park close by to Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Capital Hill, Englewood, and central to all of Denver, Colorado.

It’s a beautiful summer in Denver, Colorado. A great time for tennis, golf, volley ball, swimming, and other fun activities. These sports require strength and endurance. Not only do your muscles need to be strong, but the tendons that attach your muscles to your bones need to be able to withstand pressure and stress from exercise as well. When you make a movement to take a step, pick something up, lift something, or any other move you make, you contract your muscles, which pull on the bones to make the movement. The tendons transmit the force of the muscle contraction to the bone.

Repetitive motion, overuse, excessive stress, weakness, and numerous other factors can cause the tendons in our bodies to become inflamed. When this happens, it is known as Tendinitis. A common example of a Tendinitis related condition is known as “Tennis Elbow”. Tennis Elbow occurs in the tendons of the elbow and forearm. Tennis Elbow can be quite painful and cause someone to stop wanting to use the effected arm. The movements in the arm become irritating and sore when Tennis Elbow is occurring. Movements no longer feel smooth but rigid and stiff. Tennis Elbow obviously got its name for it’s effects on Tennis players, but it also often effects those who have to do a lot of typing and work on the computer, musicians, camera men and photographers. Basically anyone who works with their hands and arms could fall victim to Tennis Elbow.

Massage Therapy is a known antidote and preventative measure for Tennis Elbow. In my Denver office on Old South Pearl Street I offer skilled application of Trigger Point Therapy, Sports Massage, Therapeutic Stretching, and Deep Tissue Massage to effectively treat Tennis Elbow. Massage can greatly decrease the pain from Tennis Elbow. You should always continue to receive regular Massage to prevent Tennis Elbow. No one wants to have to discontinue the fun activities that may have brought on and continue to irritate Tennis Elbow. And, in some cases your job may depend on it! Tennis Elbow left untreated can result in chronic pain. If you’ve been living with Tennis Elbow for a long time, seek regular bodywork out to manage your pain and give you a better life!

If you are in the Denver area, and are suffering from Tendinitis, Massage Therapy can help you. My office is located on Old South Pearl Street near Platt Park, Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Capitol Hill, DTC, and Englewood. I work on numerous people suffering from many different conditions such as TMJ, Tennis Elbow, Knee Injuries, Back Injuries, etc. Please visit my website to learn more about Peace of Mind Therapeutic Massage & Wellness in Denver, Colorado.
