When not feeling MILES LAYTON/CHOWAN HERALD Participants in the Christmas Parade walk down Broad Street Saturday. good after BY HARRIET CLIFFORD For Chowan Herald Have you ever not felt great after you’ve had a massage? Or during even? Aren’t they supposed to make you feel better? Most times, yes, says Therapist Pamela Ann Bennion, LMBT NC No. 2311. Most a massage while the physical depth deeper into a muscle belly may be needed to achieve the result a client seeks, they may not like that. And that’s where the “dislike” for the massage (and the therapist) can come from. You may wonder why the therapist just doesn’t use the pressure level HOLIDAY Continued from Al Ringleman, CPA’s, Chowan Arts Council and Southern Bank. times, are the keywords here, she says. When it comes to the muscular system, she says what you want is to feel is a good burning kind of burn ing pain when a knot, ad hesion, tautness, tension or even a tendon releases. And this discomforting bum release should be about a level 4-6 (with lev el 1 being the least and 10 the most.) Anything over that is to much. And below that is not quite enough to give the optimal kind of release that’s usually best and desired. She does point out that each person’s threshold level is different. So what’s deep to one person may not be deep to another. How come? Each of us has our own sense of touch. And that’s unique, just like a snowflake. And we each have our own sense of “touch- taste.” You could even call it our “touch-palette.” She explains further, that that the person wants? She says here again is the “snowflake theory.” The craft of “pressure” is a learned art. Plus the “heaviness” of a thera pist’s hand is what comes natural to them. Combin ing the two is just like a carpenter or potter, their skill trade is a craft learned over time with practice and the eventual emergence of their own singular style. Feedback to the ther apist during the session is great, she says. This should boost the massage experience. Albeit gently put, however, if the “pres- sure”/discomfort isn’t to your liking, massage and Bodywork therapists on the whole are a sensitive lot!
