 We know that when our body is aching and we're tired of feeling blue, massage always sounds like it just might be the best cure. Yet, the opposite is typically true.
Active illness is often fully contraindicated. Receiving massage while ill can make an illness worse while also passing risk of infection to others. Many therapists have illness policies and ask that clients please call as soon as possible to reschedule if there are any symptoms present of cold, flu, shingles or other communicable illness. It is generally advised that clients wait until 72 hours after symptoms have fully subsided to receive their next massage. We have many natural immune boosting secrets we'd happily share, just give us a call at 308.432.4558. We hope you feel better soon!

 Backpack safety is an absolute must for both short term and long term health. From simply avoiding bothersome neck pain to preventing life-long myofascial complications (such as possible formation of a scoliotic curvature), it pays to follow the guidelines as presented by the National Safety Council https://www.nsc.org/home-safety/safety-topics/child-safety/backpacks
Remember, it is especially important to avoid single-strap bags, thin-strap/fashion bags, and hand-held bags, all of which can severely distort the spine or compress sensitive nerve bundles near the neck, shoulder, wrist and spine when worn or held under load. Keep in mind that massage therapy may help prevent and reverse damage caused by cumbersome packs throughout the school year. If you or your child complain about neck, back, hip, shoulder, arm or hand pain, schedule a session sooner rather than later and let us help you weather the school year safely. And, as always, be sure to schedule in time for regular stretching and strengthening which can be of significant benefit for preventing injury too. We wish you a happy, healthy, and safe 2018-2019 school year! Be sure to "Like" and "Follow" us on Facebook to stay up to date about news, special promotions and more.
