Get MORE out of your MASSAGE!

Listen to your body during your massage.  With your mind put your awareness, but don't concentrate, beneath the hands of your therapist.  "Follow" your massage and how your body "talks" to you.  Doing this also leads you into a deeper state.  The muscles hold memories.  For instance:  A ballplayer throws the ball and stretches his arm too far.  The next time he tries this the muscle has shortened and goes into pain, so it won't happen again.  If the muscle doesn't stop hurting within a period of say six weeks or so, then it might be holding the memory of the incident still.  Our bodies are dumb/smart and don't always know the truth.

So when you feel tension or pain while getting a massage, take a breath in, release it slowly while telling the muscles,  "Let go, you are not being hurt at this time, you are just being stretched."  Muscles don't always respect time,  while you hold your breath, this muscle goes back to the time it was first in pain.  While you breathe out and say let go, you bring it back to present time and the muscle lets go. 

You may also re-experience fear or other feelings when touched.

This is an opportunity to listen to your feelings and let them go, also, with your breath.  You may not think you still have these feelings, but your body does and you can reteach it.

You are in the past while holding your breath, and in the present when you release your breath.

Now, while receiving massage you may notice that the therapist is playing a soft music CD.  It may not have words to the music, or it may have a melody that isn't familiar.  The reason for this is to take you out of the thinking brain, so you can relax better.                       Close your eyes, place your vision at your forehead, listen to the music and put your awareness beneath the hands.  You may see colors (like a lava lamp) during your massage as you begin to relax.  You think that you have fallen asleep, yet you hear everything and aren't snoring.

This is called, "leaving" your body.  It is like meditation. 

Sometimes a touch makes you want to cry.  Ask inside your mind, "What is this?" And listen.  You may see a vision.  Memories come up.  This may be you healing old memories and letting them go.

Notice how it feels when the therapists picks up a leg, or arm.  Take a breath in and tell it to let go.  Your muscles have made a promise to take care of you and signal with pain and tension that you are being hurt again.  But, that was along time ago and you know how to take care of yourself now.  Bring the muscles to present time by inhaling and then exhaling while saying "Let go, we are not being hurt at this time." 

You are also reprogramming the brain path to the muscles and usually when the therapist pushes on this muscle again or lifts your arm, the tension is gone and pain released. 

Notice this also in your daily life.  When you feel a part of your body tense up, look around you and be aware of what's happening,  teach yourself a new way to look at things.  Breath and come into the present. Listen to your body with compassion. There is a reason that you lay still on the massage table and don't move or talk.

You may move your leg easily, going beyond the brain's signals.  But when the massage therapist moves it, it only goes so far as the body memory allows it.  Massage can help you reprogram your brain to your muscles and heal old memories.

If you are going to a massage therapist who talks to you during your whole session, he or she may not be in touch themselves and may want to stay in their brain.  You may feel good for a day or two, your muscles relax, eventually, after many sessions.  There is a better way!  A healing way!

Women liked to go to church on Sundays because, for one reason: no one can ask them for anything, or call them on the phone, or get them dinner. They don't have to do anything for anyone else during this hour.  Now a days, it's massage!  Your phone is turned off, Soft lighting, nice music.  Its' you being alone with you!

Tailbone Release Class and Public Information

Easy to learn in a one day class. Good class for Massage Therapists, Healers, Physical Therapists, chiropractors.   Email for more info:  jayatatum@gmail.com

On your information form that your clients fill out when they come to see you, you might want to add:  "Have you ever hurt your tailbone?"

It all begins in the tailbone!  The tailbone and the surrounding nerves help regulate and support the autonomic nervous system.  The tailbone release can calm down and relax this system.

The tailbone or coccyx also involves the root chakra which is where all of our energies are created.

It has a lot of influence over back pain.

Pain can come from a fall, fracture, misalignment, inflammation, childbirth, a hard impact, certain sports activities, poor posture and aging.

It is a gentle release and you may want to have a session yourself, especially if as a child you fell down on your tailbone.  If you experience chronic back pain give this a try.

 



THE HEALING EXPERIENCE

What is Healing?  Healing with energy is a modality of its' own  it is just now being researched in the U.S.  The Medical Center in Ann Arbor has conducted research programs.  Several hospitals have healing clinics and allow healers to work on their patients.  Beaumont is just one of them.
We can't prove why it works, just that it does, but not the same way every time and not in the same way for each person.  Jaya has been a partner in research lab testing that proved that her healing enhances the hemoglobin and improves the cells.  It also proved that when you receive a healing from Jaya your energy base increases threefold in three days. 

Healing is not curing.  It is a process.  Sometimes disease leaves, or it remains
yet life is different in some way.  At times symptoms change and doctors can now help what was hopeless.  We all need help and hope at times.

Many M.D.s integrate healing in their practices.  Dr. Richard Gerber M.D. is one of our Michigan doctors who has written a book about the many healing modalities.

The variety of known hands on healing modalities are:  Reiki, Seichim, Shamanism, Therapeutic Touch, Quantum touch, Chi-gong, SHEN, Polarity, Network Spinal Analysis and a bevy of more.
Jaya is a natural healer.  She practices Reiki, Polarity, Seichim and Tibetan Healing.

Some practitioners, as a specialty, or in combination with other therapies use: Applied Kinesiology.
flower essences, hypnosis, acupuncture, acupressure, magnets, reflexology, iridology, vibrational , chakra healing, herbal and homepathics, distant healing, visualizations, water, music, radionics, vibrational machines, crystals, color, light, sound, essential oils, biofeedback, psychic healing, the healing harps, pendulums and channeling.

Jaya uses acupressure, reflexology, chakra healing, distant healing, visualizations, music, crystals color, sound, essential oils, psychic healing, The Healing Harp, the pendulum and channeling.

Healers who are trained use the energy that is all around us, combine it with the earth energy, their own physical energy and divine energy.  They focus this combination of energy through the heart  and hands in off-body or physical touch.

This focus is directed or guided spiritually in order to help heal dysfunction; mental, emotional, spiritual or physical.  It is also used to cleanse the aura, which is the energy field that surrounds the body.

The aura is seven layers that can hold disturbing or outdated thought or disease patterns.  The aura can be strong or weak.  Drugs can create disturbing patterns in the aura.  Fear, pain and negative feelings also create an effect.  Misconceptions and anger and depression and disconnection can be relieved with aura therapy.  Disharmony and emotional pain and memories can be released.  Blockages and feelings of being unloved or threatened are helped here.  Your spirituality can be enhanced with this work.

Names of the seven layers of the aura:  Etheric body, Emotional Body(lower emotional), Mental body, Astral body, Etheric Template (physical), Celestial body (emotional), Ketheric body (mental).

There are seven major energy vortexes in the body called chakras.  they reflect the condition of our body/spirit/mind.  They also respond to the major nerve plexuses of the physical body in that area of the body.

Each major chakra on the front is paired with its counterpart on the back of the body.  The frontal charkas are related to feelings, the back ones are related to the person's will.  The three on the head are related to the mental process.  Each has a color component.  When we are open and flowing with energy we can remain healthy and happy.  Trained healers can repair and clear these chakras.

Healers scan the body to know where to begin their work.  Healing can rapidly change our outlook without drugs.  Although we must follow what is best for us when under medical care.

Jaya's Advanced Cranial Sacral Therapy

Jaya's Advanced Cranial Sacral Therapy

There is a fluid (cerebral spinal fluid) that flows up and down the spine and around the brain.  This fluid is encased within a tough tissue (the Dura tube).  The fluid moves with the rhythm of the bones (cranial rhythm).  From the time we are born to present time, whenever we've experienced trauma in our life (just being born is a trauma, the body doesn't know the difference between a physical or emotional trauma), a wrinkle may form in this tissue.  In time some of these wrinkles smooth out. Those that remain may cause problems, physically or emotionally, because the fluid doesn't move smoothly around certain points in the brain or spinal cord. 

You may lay on a massage table, fully clothed or prepared for massage.  Jaya sits on a stool to the side of the table and places her two hands under your body.  She is feeling for the cranial rhythm of the spine and sacrum (that triangle bone at the base).  She allows for some unwinding and then creates a stillpoint if the cranial rhythm is off, this means she stops the movement with only a nickel's weight of pressure.

Jaya is able to feel this, but you probably won't feel anything.  A still point can be very powerful,

it can last a short time, sometimes longer.  Some say, this is when "The Grace of God" can occur.

Cranial rhythm corrects itself during a still point.  No matter where on the bones a still point occurs, the spinal fluid stops and builds at the base of the skull.  With her high sense Jaya feels the momentum build, relaxes the pressure and the cranial rhythm restores to its natural balance all by itself.  Cranial Sacral Therapy helps the body to heal itself.

Jaya continues these steps up the spine and then on all the head bones.

The advanced part comes when Jaya takes one of her hands, That are placed every foot or so, and places it above the other hand and releases any restrictions she can feel in the body.  She then "cranials" all the organs, allowing the healing energy to flow from her hands.  She checks the rhythm at all the joints in the body from head to toe.  There is also something called the vector of the body that she checks, encouraging it's lines to correct.  A little unwinding of the ankles and some reflexology may be part of the session. 

Standing now at the head of the table, Jaya reaches her hands under the scapulas, and they are able to relax, unwind and release more.  She holds an acupressure point on the tips of the shoulders for a couple of minutes and this creates deep relaxation down the arms, shoulders and through the body.  Sliding way down now along the back and spine and then coming up slowly to the neck and head.  Gentle unwinding of the neck, while talking you through it and using the breath

(to re-pattern the pain-brain) and using some massage to undo sore muscles.

Jaya releases tension in the head with acupressure energy and Cranial Sacral Therapy. She enhances and increases the aura and ends the session.

So, what could you be feeling during this session?  You will feel the small pressure of the still points and then the depth of the letting go that follows. You may be able to breathe more deeply.  As Jaya gets up further along the spine and to the head, you may feel little trickles of energy in different parts of the body, this is an indicator of where there were restrictions.  In my own body, sometimes an arm or leg kicks out and then relaxes because I've had broken bones, surgeries or injuries.  You feel so peaceful, you don't even know you have a body.  You may feel increased blood flow.  If your eyes are closed you may see colors or visions.  You may have a release in the form of tears.  You may remember an incident of the past because it is healing.  When you get up, you will feel a little cold and like you are not quite in your body.  Because many rhythms have been restored you may be off balance for 20 minutes till your body gets used to it (like getting used to new glasses).  AND more happens in the next three days.

Jaya has had a high percentage of helping migraines go away.  Depression and anxiety can be relieved.  Challenged and handicapped children, of which Jaya sees four, one with autism, are truly helped.  Babies that were born C-section need this work because their head bones don't get massaged going through the birth canal.  Spinal surgeries, knee surgeries, muscle spasms, lung problems, head aches, the list goes on and on.  Who needs this therapy?  In my opinion, everyone should have at least one session.  Please call the second number if you desire a class or mentoring.
