In the United States, Massage was first licensed in the State of Ohio over 100 years ago as a branch of the medical field. Since that time, massage in medicine has evolved in its many forms in order to support and nurture the human body.
In order to become a Massage Therapist in the US, one must goes through an intensive study of anatomy, physiology, ethics health practices, and manual therapies through classes and a thorough program of hands on training. Ranging from one state to another, this can take between a few hundred hours to over 1,500 to become either licensed or certified. Most therapists choose this field because they are interested in Science of the human body, but also in the Art of Giving in a very tangible way. Massage is a beautiful combination of mixing science and the art of touch for healing and well-being. It can touch into places that have long been forgotten. Or it simply helps the body to remember its natural state of being.
Massage has turned into one of the fastest growing areas of healing. Because massage involves the intimate act of touching the body in a way that it can relax, restore and repair, it supports by allowing the organic biological process to work in harmony and constant dialogue. It is through the open communication and movement of all the various systems of the body, from a micro level to macro that all issues of health may be addressed and changed.
Massage can be seen as a Spa type of treatment, but actually it's effects are much more profound and felt than can be expressed in basic terms. The reduction of stress through a gentle Swedish massage or very specific work such as Craniosacral Therapy, Structural Integration or Brennan Healing Science can help your body to create new pathways to a healthy mind-body-spirit connection.

A Client's recent Question:
Craniosacral Therapy is a light touch massage approach that can support dramatic improvements in the quality of your life. It releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction. The intent of this form of massage is to listen to the Cranial Rhythm and help the nervous system to relax and self-correct. Because Craniosacral is so gentle, it may be used with infants, seniors, people of all ages.
Craniosacral Therapy as used at Lighten Therapies is based on the foundation of Dr. John Upledger's DO's work. Dr. John was a pioneer who brought this type of massage and manual therapy to a greater range of people who have studied and fine tuned their skills with various levels of training and experience. Check www.Upledger.com for a practitioner in your area.
