Had the opportunity to coach some swimming athletes this evening into Invincible Breathing!

Sleep apnea symptoms compound upon one another, worsening frequencies of apneas and hypopneas at an exponential scale

Heavy breathing begets heavier breathing

There’s good news: you can reduce these symptoms by learning to become a lighter breather.

Join me in learning to combat sleep apnea through informed Breathwork with the Buteyko method from the . The next workshop for sleep apnea is on May 4th @ 4:30pm

I'm excited to announce that, as of this week, I am now a certified Buteyko Breathing Instructor through the Buteyko Clinic International!

What is Buteyko, you ask? - In short, it works to normalize abnormal breathing patterns, especially for populations with anxiety, asthma and sleep apnea.

Here are some exciting things happening with this:

I am now offering private Buteyko Breathing instruction in the studio as a new service.

I will also be launching my first group sessions soon. More info to come

This work will help to inform and enhance all massage therapy services as well, as proper breathing will improve the efficacy of massage.

I was featured in a local, online Austin magazine.

Breathing...

Last year, I had a client whose Quadratus Lumborum (QL) was so rigid, it was as if I was touching a flat rock.

I ceased the massage and lead the client through roughly 4 minutes of box breathing exercises, allowing them space to relax and deepen their breathing.

I returned to the QL, which had begun to cooperate and begin to respond and deflate against massage pressure.

It is so imperative that clients focus on slow, deep, and elongated breaths through the nose to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system during massage.

If the breathing is rapid or shallow, the quality of progress that can be made during bodywork is limited.

Focus on your breath

Many clients are asking for more intensive fascial work to supplements their massages.

I now offer clients the option of myofascial scraping and fascial "dry" cupping as part of their standard in-studio session.

Learn more about the purpose of myofascial scraping here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3359830/

Cupping is not for everyone, and has its contraindications. Click here to find out if cupping is right for you: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK538253/ -20172_s5_
