How will I feel after the massage?
Everybody responds differently to massage. If the Qi energy and meridian blockages are stimulated, dormant toxins flow back into circulation to be eliminated via the normal channels. (The organs of elimination include the liver, lungs, kidneys, lymphatic system and skin.) If the bodies’ eliminatory and healing mechanisms are a little sluggish, or the recipient is particularly sensitive, symptoms including light-headedness and headaches, lethargy and sleepiness can occur.
It seems that those who lead a healthier, cleaner lifestyle have less reaction and those that tend to eat poorly, do little physical activity and lead a sedentary lifestyle will be more sensitive to this shift. It is important to remember that these physical and emotional reactions are temporary and that the body will balance itself soon after.
Drinking water facilitates the healing process and each and every massage after the initial one will produce a more positive reaction. After the initial period of feeling slowed down, people often experience increased energy, heightened awareness, and greater productivity which can last for days.
