Many Denver massage clinics have assisted people throughout the years in their pain relief, not only by working on them but also through self care education. Lets take a close look at one way each of us can help our own personal battle with muscle pain.

Often times when we are in pain all we can think of is getting out of it, but also many times with this comes a sense of helplessness. You will discover that a high number of Denver massage therapists recognize that several people have a hard time with owning their pain, believing they have any control over making it better. This is where things must change, in order for someone to truly break that pain cycle they must start to take ownership over the pain. This is not an easy task but none the less must be accomplished to live the quality of life that is desired.

It’s similar to an overweight individual wanting to lose weight. We all know that this weight loss never happens until the person takes responsibility for their actions and starts making better choices. Yes, there are others that can help in the process like a personal trainer, much like a Denver massage therapist can help in the pain relief for their clients, but these clients must be making better choices day to day. So this is where the ever feared word of change comes into play, and the best road to permanent change is awareness and acceptance of what it is that needs to be changed in the first place.

So what is this step? This answer – deep breathing! Yes that’s right, you may be thinking to yourself how is this going to help me with my neck pain, back pain, hip pain, or whatever pain it may be. Take a moment to understand what deep “diaphragmatic” breathing will do. This type of breathing is an action of the diaphragm which is a muscle deep within the abdomen.

As children we all come into the world using our diaphragm to breath, one way you can see this is taking notice of a child’s belly, and how it comes outward each and every time they breath in. Think of it like a glass that is being filled up with water, the air being the water, as the air fills the diaphragm it expands causing the stomach to do the same and then flattening back out while breathing out. Most people do not use this muscle hardly at all while breathing which than causes them to stress breath, tightening up in their neck, upper back, and upper trapezius which now leads into headaches and other muscle tightness.

One of the Denver massage locations had a client who’s life was completely changed by this one action. It made her realize that she did have some control over the pain. The combination of deep diaphragmatic breathing techniques and massage gave her the quality of life back that she had not had for many years.

What we do know, is that this is a very powerful technique that will work to different levels depending upon each individual and how serious they take it into consideration, other action steps they may be incorporating along with it, and being truly committed to taking themselves out of the prison of pain.

Understanding that there are always alternatives to self pain relief and taking full ownership of what is going on with your body has given many Denver massage clients the ability to use these techniques to improve their overall health.
