I am pleased to be now offering the dōTERRA ArōmaTouch Technique developed by Dr. David Hill. The dōTERRA ArōmaTouch Technique provides people with an uplifting essential oil experience. It is a clinical approach to applying eight different essential oils in a precise sequence on the back and feet to help balance the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. This technique also helps with reducing stress, boosting the immune system and reducing inflammation.

​Client may schedule a 30-minute ArōmaTouch Technique session or include the ArōmaTouch Technique as part of their therapeutic massage session.

Below are the eight essential oils used during an ArōmaTouch session.

​

A trip to remember.

I will be out of the office from Friday February 2nd to Wednesday February 21st. I will be working with Rally Cycling at two major UCI races: the Tour of Dubai and the Tour of Oman.
See you when I get back!

I've been using the bodyCushion in my practice to work with my pregnant clients. The bodyCushion let them lay face down with no pressure on the uterus. It provides support even in the late third term of pregnancy. The bodyCushion supports the torso, unloads and decompresses the spine therefore alleviates pressure on nerve roots.

​You can get more info about the bodyCushion by clicking here: bodysupport.com and by watching the youtube video I included below.

Here are some feedbacks I received from two of my clients:

"I really love how you have the pregnancy massage pillow compared to other massage places where you have to hug a pillow and lay on your side. With your option, I am able to lay face down very comfortably, and get a deep tissue massage. It's amazing considering I am only able to sleep/lay on my side for 9+ months so when I get to lay face down, it feels great. It also has great support for my stomach and my chest. I also love how you can tailor it to how my belly grows. Overall, it's very comfy and relaxing."​

Strava and Lululemon are having a walking/running challenge from January 2nd to the 15th.
The goal is to walk/run 40 or 80 km in two weeks.
Join me and others and start 2018 by doing something healthy for your body!
PS. I did the challenge last year and I got a free Lululemon t-shirt once I completed it!

For those not familiar with Strava, you can download the app on your phone and it will keep track of your mileage. Don't hesitate to ask me if you need help with setting up your account.

Once you create your account, join the "lululemon 40 | 80 Challenge".

I also created a club you can join so we can compare our training and stay motivated throughout those two weeks: "Myriam Desrosiers LMT, CCT - Therapeutic Massage Club"

Here is my annual post about shovelling. I had a client today coming in from hurting his back while shovelling yesterday. Follow those easy steps next time we get a good snowfall and if it's too late and the damage is already done... come see me ;)

I am now offering Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) Therapy.

What is MPS: MPS Therapy is noninvasive and is done with one of two hand-held electrical devices that locate and apply concentrated DC microcurrent to active acupuncture and trigger points. Its purpose is to relax muscles, to calm the nervous system and to release endorphins, our body's natural painkillers. It is therefore really good with treating chronic pain.

MPS is also very effective with treating scars.
Because scars have a different texture and quality than the surrounding tissue and are also less flexible, they restrict movement and function in the body. These restrictions can affect joints, limbs, and underlying organs. Following a scar treatment, dead cells and scar tissue are  broken down by the body, circulation is increased to the area and the lymphatic system excretes the dead cells. People have been seeing changes in the appearance of their scars and noticing a reduction in the tightness and restriction felt at the site of the scar.

DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness)

What a good topic for me to write about today as I started a new workout yesterday and I am so feeling the muscle soreness today.

What does exercise do to your muscles?
When you exercise, some muscle tissue breakdown occurs. The pain you feel after a hard workout is actually microtears in the muscle tissue. With proper rest and nutrition, muscles repair, grow bigger and stronger.

One needs to push its limits with incremental steps in order to get stronger, but rest is also important as exercising too much, too hard or when you haven't fully recover can hinder your performance and your health.

Nutrition is also a key factor. Proper nutrition is the answer to many health questions including exercise recovery. A great simple post-workout beverage is chocolate milk as it has a great combination of protein, carbohydrates and calcium. 

Lastly, I personally like to incorporate the Deep Blue products from DoTerra in my workout regimen.
