Your body is part of everything you do! Just as the roots of a tree provide stability and nourishment, your body is the base from which your life branches. Problems in an individual part have a systemic affect on your entire body. Strength, flexibility, and suppleness in your body come from healthy tissues. Eliminating problems in the soft tissues allows greater health, well-being, and higher quality of life.

Therapeutic massage is a medical therapy indicated for rehabilitation of injuries, symptoms of overuse, recurring and chronic pain, surgical scarring, stress, anxiety, and much, much more. Choosing a conscientious professional, with quality education, an experienced background, and a focus on safety and ethics insures a high standard of service.  You can trust that you are in good hands with Away Therapeutic Body Care with Wendi Wells.

Feeling good is essential to a quality life.  Without good health it is difficult and sometimes impossible to enjoy activities and family, work efficiently, or even carry out every day routines.  Injuries to our shoulders and knees can make it impossible to play sports, enjoy site-seeing on vacation, take out the trash, or put away the groceries. Chronic conditions like arthritis or fibromyalgia can cause us to cancel plans made with loved ones because we just don’t feel up to it.  Add mental stress and fatigue to the picture, and life can sometimes seem overwhelming.

Stress doesn’t just feel aweful emotionally it can also exacerbate just about any health condition you can think of. When you’re stressed, your body naturally responds to a crisis, danger, or threat by constricting blood vessels, and raising blood pressure and heart rate; you breathe faster, and more shallowly; and your bloodstream is flooded with inflammatory markers, and hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. If stress becomes a constant, persistent, and low-level condition, all parts of the body’s stress apparatus (the brain, heart, lungs, blood vessels, and muscles) become chronically over or under activated. Over time, chronic stress may produce physical or psychological damage, leading to health problems

Massage can help relieve many of the conditions that reduce our quality of life. It promotes deep relaxation and stress reduction and can stimulate the release of endorphins — the body’s natural pain killers. Increased blood flow helps to deliver nutrients and oxygen to the nervous system and muscle tissues and reduces restrictions, which all increase muscle function.

When your muscles can function without the restrictions of tension, and your nervous system is encouraged to slow down and relax, many of the conditions you thought you would just have to live with will improve.  The result:  An improved quality of life.   Once again, you can enjoy family and friends, have energy left at the end of the day, and the ability to live life they way you want to.
