GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Acupressure is an ancient healing art that uses the fingers, thumbs, and knuckles to press key points on the surface of the skin to stimulate the body’s natural self-curatifve abilities. When these points are pressed they release muscular tension and promote the circulation of blood and the body’s life force to aid healing. The recipient may be fully clothed.
Acupuncture uses the same points as acupressure but employs needles to stimulate the points. Electricity may also be used. A state license is required for all acupuncturists.
Alexander Technique is a learning process in which the student becomes able to identify faulty habit patterns, consciously inhibit them, and then initiate action by engaging the correct head-neck-back-relationship, which Alexander called “primary control.”
Aquatic Bodywork is a form of warm water hydrotherapy and massage encompassing many differing techniques. The client receives gentle movements and stretches, while held in warm water that relaxes and nurtures the body, mind and spirit. Being floated in water reduces pain, releases stress, opens the heart and quiets the mind.
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils, which are extracted from herbs, flowers, resins, and roots for use in body and skin care treatments. After careful study, an aromatherapist massages specific essential oils combined with a base oil into the recipient to promote healing of wounds, aid relaxation, and improve circulation.
ABMP (Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals) is an international organization for massage therapists and other bodyworkers with strict requirements for membership. Members must adhere to a high level of professional behavior to remain members in good standing.
AMTA (American Massage Therapy Association) is a national organization for therapists with strict requirements for membership.
AOBTA refers to the American Organization of Body Therapies of Asia
Ayurveda is the oldest healing system in the world dating back 5000 years, based on the five elements of nature; Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether. These elements are recognized in each body as unique thus requiring customized methodologies to maintain and reestablish health. It practices precise diagnostics, treatments, massage, diets, medicinal usage of herbs & spices and more.
BRSMY
refers to the Blue Ridge School of Massage and Yoga - .2001 South Main
Street, Suite 106
Colony Park, Blacksburg, VA 24060 - (540) 552-2177
CMT means Certified Massage Therapist. To use this designation, massage therapists must have completed at least 500 hours of training in a state-approved program or have equivalent work experience to have “grandfathered” into the designation. All massage therapists must be certified by the state of Virginia to practice massage therapy in this state.
Cranio-Sacral Therapy is a gentle method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the closed, pulsing, cerebro-spinal fluid system bathing the cranium and the entire spine. It is technically a form of myofascial release bodywork, and can include releases of the various diaphragms in the body. It originated in osteopathic practice.
Deep Tissue Massage uses techniques that affect the sub-layer of musculature and fascia. These techniques require more advanced training and are generally integrated with other massage techniques. Deep tissue massage helps with chronic muscular pain, injury rehabilitation and inflammation caused by arthritis and tendinitis.
Esalen Massage is based on a combination of Swedish and Oriental massage. Esalen is light and gentle in nature and emphasizes nurturing and empathy. It lessens pain, improves sleep, aids digestion, reduces stress, aids in healing, and is deeply relaxing.
Jin Shin Do® combines gentle yet deep finger pressure on acu-points with simple body focusing techniques to release physical and emotional tension. It promotes a gentle, trance-like state during which the recipient can get in touch with the body and access emotions related to physical conditions. As with other acupressure modalities, the client is fully clothed.
NCBTMB refers to the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.
Myofascial Release is a positioning and stroke intent system applied to soft tissues. It can be direct, as in Rolfing, or indirect, as in techniques such as strain-counterstrain and muscle energy. Techniques vary from the use of very light touch (Barnes) to very deep, as in Rolfing. The underlying similarities in the work come from the manipulation of fascia, or connective tissue, within the body, with the goal of increasing mobility of the tissue.
Pilates involves stretching exercises that can be done on the floor or with a Reformer which is a trundle with weighted springs. Also, all the joints are rotated with these exercises.
Polarity Therapy emphasizes energy flow in the body; emotional tension and/or pain is released when the flow of energy is restored. Polarity is based on the belief that positive and negative poles exist in every cell. The body is gently manipulated to balance the positive and negative energies. Training to become a practitioner is 430 hours.
Reflexology is based on the theory that there are reflex areas, or specific points in the feet and hands, that correspond to all the parts of the body. Pressure on such points improves circulation, relieves stress, and helps stimulate the body’s healing process.
Reiki is based on the principles of Chi, or universal life energy. Reiki promotes healing through methods that are rooted in spiritual tradition. A practitioner’s hands are placed on the fully clothed body of a person in various positions on the head, chest, abdomen, back, legs and feet. The recipient generally feels a sense of deep relaxation and well-being.
Rolfing (Structural Integration) is a holistic and scientifically validated system of body restructuring and movement education. Rolfing frees fascial adhesions (unhealthy binding of tissues), allowing the muscles and bones to return to balanced relationships. When the fascial system is organized through the Rolfing process, the body's major segments are freed to align themselves properly.
Shiatsu is a form of acupressure. It focuses on the efficient flow of energy throughout the energy meridians and the body’s autonomic nervous system. Meridians and organs lacking in sufficient energy are balanced and strengthened. Stretching and movement may also be employed. The recipient is fully clothed.
Sports Massage is designed to reduce injuries, alleviate inflammation, provide warmup, etc. for amateur or professional athletes before, during, and after their training regimens.
Swedish Massage uses a variety of strokes to stimulate the circulation of blood through the soft tissues of the body. Stroking and kneading the bare skin with essential oil stimulates metabolic processes, loosens tight muscles, promotes healing, and enhances one’s sense of vitality.
Trager is an approach to movement education. There are two aspects of Trager; one in which the client is passive and the other, active. Utilizing gentle, non-intrusive, natural movements, Trager helps release unhealthy and deep-seated physical and mental patterns and facilitates deep relaxation, increased physical mobility, and mental clarity.
Trigger Point Therapy finds and deactivates trigger points, which are tender points in taut muscle bands which can affect muscle soreness, contracture, and other physiologic malfunction both adjacent to the points and at referred, or distant points. The goal is to restore mobility and facilitate relief of pain in affected areas.
Watsu, aquatic shiatsu, began at Harbin
Hot Springs where Harold Dull brought his knowledge of Zen shiatsu into
a warm pool. Zen shiatsu incorporates stretches that release blockages
along the meridians — the channels through which chi or life
force flows. Dull found the effects of Zen shiatsu could be amplified
and made more profound by stretching someone while having them float in
warm water. By supporting, rocking, and moving the whole body while
stretching a leg or arm, Watsu lessens the resistance there is when a
limb is worked in isolation. When the whole body is in continual
movement, each move flowing gracefully into the next, there is no way
to resistantly anticipate what's coming next. Warm water and the
continuous support it provides are ideal for freeing the spine.
