This month on AIST Massage Triumphs we posted hands-on guides and honest takes on treatments you might book next. Expect clear how-to tips, what to ask your therapist, and real-world advice for pain, relaxation, and recovery. Below I summarize each piece so you can pick what helps you now.
Ortho-Bionomy appears twice this month — one article explains the basics and another focuses on chronic pain. The message is the same: small, gentle movements and patient listening to your body often work better than force. Try tiny range-of-motion moves and breathing with each gentle repositioning; do three short reps, wait, then reassess. People with long-term pain reported reduced guarding and easier daily movement after a few sessions.
Trigger Point Massage gives quick, practical relief for stubborn knots. The guide walks you through locating trigger points, using steady pressure for 10–30 seconds, and following with slow stretching. A clear at-home routine: find the spot, press until discomfort drops a bit, hold, then stretch the muscle gently. Desk workers and athletes will find that simple plan very usable between pro sessions.
Lomi Lomi and Kahuna both bring rhythm and flow into massage. Lomi Lomi uses long, fluid strokes—expect less focus on single knots and more on whole-body ease. Kahuna borrows Hawaiian movement and breath work; start with short sessions so your body can adapt. Both practices reward choosing a therapist who explains their style before starting.
The Laos massage article highlights traditional stretches and firm but smooth pressure. The piece is practical: tell the therapist any health issues, ask how deep the strokes will be, and arrive hydrated. If you’ve never tried it, book a standard session first rather than an extended ritual to see how your body responds.
Blind Massage is featured for a reason: many blind therapists develop finely tuned hands. The article recommends trusting referrals and reading client notes. Expect therapists who prioritize sensitivity over speed—good for people who need careful, focused work.
Palliative Massage is written for caregivers and family members. It focuses on comfort, short sessions, and emotional support. The tips are straightforward: use slow touch, avoid long repositioning, and keep communication open about pain and fatigue. These sessions aren’t about fixing things; they’re about easing the moment.
Contractual Tendon Release covers a surgical path for severe mobility limits. The post explains who benefits, what recovery really looks like, and ways to speed rehab: focused physiotherapy, scar care, and gradual load increases. It’s practical for people weighing surgery vs continued conservative care.
Pick one goal—pain relief, relaxation, or recovery—and read the matching article first. Use the clear at-home tips for quick wins, then book a session with a therapist who explains their approach. If you’re unsure, try a short session or ask for a consult. These May posts are built to help you act, not confuse you. Try one simple technique this week and note how your body responds.
