event_spaceCome relax with us!

Next month Sellwood foot spa Feel Good Feet hosts Anne McCranie, owner of Fluid Movement + Massage for a night of TLC for your feet.

Indulge in a foot soak, and learn a simple home care routine for happy, pain free feet.

Along with the soaking tubs Feel Good Feet offers ionized water, intuitive readings and reflexology treatments. Reflexology is based on the idea that points on the soles of the feet correspond with specific organs. Stimulating these points by applying fingertip pressure supports the entire body and provides deep relaxation.

The foot spa also hosts parties and events. We will provide snacks and tea tonight, you are welcome to bring your own treats or adult beverages with you as well.

Massage Therapy Provides Migraine Relief

Who doesn’t love a good head and neck massage? Did you know that receiving a massage at the onset of a migraine can drastically reduce the severity of the headache? According to this article migraine sufferers should have their massage therapist on speed dial.

Massage is helpful in addressing migraine headaches. If you can receive massage therapy quick enough, you can avoid hours, perhaps days, of discomfort. Massage can relieve the muscular tension caused by stress or the pain itself…

…Relieve pain by releasing the body’s natural pain relievers known as endorphins. Hot or cold packs can be applied to the base of the skull to calm the vacillation between dilation and constriction of blood vessels. Cold numbs and constricts, while heat opens vessels and soothes the muscles and nerves. Tension headaches respond best to heat.

I love watching my clients’ reaction when I begin to work on their occiput (drooling…mouth hanging open, eyes rolling into the backs of their heads) 🙂 I have been known to spend a whole hour on just the head, neck and jaw. My favorite combo is Swedish massage – long gliding strokes, followed by deep Neuromuscular Therapy and Myofascial Release. I finish up with soothing Cranio Sacral work and my client floats out of the room feeling like a whole new person!

Other remedies for migraines that you could try at home include monitoring your diet and knowing which foods my be triggers and avoiding them, managing your stress, application of heat and cold, and aromatherapy.

Do you suffer from migraines? What has brought you relief in the past?

Client Testimonial – Massage and Personal Training

Just received this lovely Yelp Review. Thanks Jill!

 

I Love Anne! My Partner and I have been going to Anne for years. She is incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate. Not to mention has a great sense of humor! She creates custom packages / plans that work exactly for you. I have seen her mostly for massage but also have worked with her for personal training. She is both motivating and fun. I have had massages that were intense and problem focused as well as massages where I fell asleep they were so heavenly. Highly recommended!!
