Zen Anmaki
Zen Anmaki
     A massage for the mind, body and spirit.  Based on Swedish massage with Myofascial
(membrane coating the muscles) releasing techniques and deep tissue work with polarity work
and other energy work to help release the stiffness and energy blocks within the muscles.  By doing
this it allows the spirit of the body to relax and the mind to fallow and be free so it can start to think in
a more positive manner.  That way the energy blocks can be released in a more long term manner.
Swidish Massage:
“The systematic manual manipulations of the soft tissues of the body by such movements as
rubbing, kneading, pressing, rolling, slapping, and tapping for the purpose of promoting circulation
of the blood and lymph, relaxation of muscles, relief from pain, restoration of metabolic balance,
and other benefits both physical and mental”.
Myofascial release involves a gentle form of stretching and compression. The therapy, also known
as soft tissue mobilization or MFR, releases the uneven tightness in injured fascia. Fascia is the
dense, tough tissue that surrounds and covers the body's organs, muscles and bones.
In the normal healthy state the fascia is relaxed and soft, and it can stretch without restriction.
However, following physical trauma or inflammation, fascia loses its pliability, and it becomes a
sense of tension throughout the body.
Myofascial release is different from massage, which focuses on muscles. This approach is thought
to treat the causes of pain, not just the symptoms.

With Zen Anmaki I do not just work on the muscles I also work on your energy system of the body.  
The tight sore muscle you have might be more than just over worked body parts there might be
more to that.  That sore stiff muscle might be effect of what the body is holding on.  Be is stress
induced or past trauma.  The energy system of your body holds on to this and then it transfers to you
physical body.  What if you could remove the cause not just the effect?  With Zen Anmaki I go to the
root of the problem and help you release it if you so choose.  The releasing of the cause is up to you
to fix I cannot do it for you.  I can help you find the cause so you can fix it if you so choose.  With Zen
Anmaki I use tools that I have learned to help the body relax so the mind body and spirit can
become one.  That way we can find the cause of the problem and then you can work on fixing it.  If
you are looking for then just a massage and a way to connect with you spirit then Zen Anmaki can
help you.
