Massage heals the tissues of the body
Massage heals the tissues of the body
Saturday, April 09, 2011 by: James Schreiber
(NaturalNews) Brush aside any thoughts that massage is only a luxury splurge that has no real health benefits. To the contrary, hands-on healing helps you unwind, lowers blood pressure, promotes muscle relaxation and boosts your immune system. During a massage session, massage therapists use their hands and fingers to press and manipulate your skin, tendons, ligaments and muscles. The strokes gently move your blood, oxygen and lymph to various tissues and organs in a way that normally doesn't happen in the bodies of most people. As a result, the person who is receiving the massage experiences a level of physical and mental renewal that is hard to surpass.
Hidden Health Benefits of Human Touch
Today, numerous well respected studies indicate that massage therapy doesn't only feel good, it also may be good for you. Take a look at the health benefits below and discover the power of human touch:
Mark Rapaport, M.D., and his colleagues from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center followed 53 healthy adults who were divided into two groups: The participants received either 45 minutes of Swedish massage or the same amount of time of light touch massage, which is much milder and served mainly as a comparison to the more vigorous Swedish massage. After examining their blood samples, the scientists found that people in the Swedish massage group experienced a decrease in cortisol and a significant increase in lymphocytes, cells that keep our immune system strong.
"More research is ahead of us but it appears that a single massage may deliver a measurable benefit," Rapaport said in a news release.
Massage is far more potent therapy than most people realize. In fact, it can (and should) replace analgesics as a treatment for tension headaches. As it turns out, it takes only a 30-minute massage on cervical trigger points to boost autonomic nervous system regulation and alleviate the symptoms. Patients also report an improvement in their psychological and physiological state, which goes hand in hand with the reduction in stress and anxiety associated with such a disturbing condition.
Stress and lack of rest have devastating effects on our health, fitness and beauty. Don't be afraid to find yourself a good massage therapist and get some healing on a regular basis. When you're taking care of your skin and what's beneath it, you are taking care of your whole world.

Introducing, Yen4Zen Yoga Studio!!
Hello! Namaste!
For those of you who have yet to be enlightened... There's a new Yoga Studio in town!
Yen4Zen joined the San Diego Yoga Community last Fall!
One sunny day while I was waiting to pick up my son from Kensington Preschool, I crossed paths with a "radiant red-head," who happened to be Rebecca Villa, the founder and owner of Yen4Zen Yoga in Kensington. My family had recently moved from Chicago and I was dying to get back on the mat and teach. This happenstance moment was the universe answering my prayers! Rebecca invited me to join her family/staff at Yen4Zen, and I am so blessed to be a part of her yoga journey.
Rebecca's studio stands apart for several reasons. Let me tell you why...
Being a practitioner for several years I have pretty much been in every kind of yoga school from your average studio to warehouses, yurts, tomato farm huts, parks, beaches, hostels... Yes, everywhere!
The studio is a quaint sanctuary, painted it soft hues of green and decorated in deities, its a pleasantly sweet place to meditate and practice yoga... while listening to the soft hum of life on Adams Ave. Rebecca has captured the essence of a yoga sanctuary.
The saying, "good things come in small packages" is definitely appropriate for this studio. As an Instructor, I have embraced this studio and its unique energy. It allows for the Instructor to work individually with each practitioner. It is much easier to be attentive to each yogis individual needs in a smaller space or with smaller class size.
When we begin down our yogic paths we are drawn to different schools, spaces, styles of teaching... Dipping in and out, developing an appetite/addiction for yoga!
So, I invite you to taste Yen4Zen, I don't believe you will be disappointed!
The Community of Kensington has truly embraced the studio, as it allows most students to roll out of bed or take a short stroll to their mats! Not bad! Saturday Mornings a small group of yogis meet at the Ken Cafe for a cup of Joe and a brisk walk to follow. After there coffee/tea "walk&talk" they head over to the studio for a morning Vinyasa Practice with "me", Gabrielle.
I thought this would be a great way to take our practice and energy off the mat and into the community. Supporting local business and strolling the beautiful neighborhood of Kensington... In hopes it will stir curiosity and our following will grow!
We we also be at the Adams Ave. Healing Arts and Roots Fest, the last weekend in April, so please come check us out! We will be teaching Family and Kids Yoga to all...
Check us out on the web: Yen4ZenYoga.com for current schedules, upcoming workshops, events, etc

Jaynes Pinot Noir Flight Tonight Tuesday: Sonoma, Oregon and Burgundy
Tonight we are featuring of flight of three of our favorite Pinot Noir here at Jaynes: 2008 Robert Sinskey Vineyards from Sonoma, 2009 Evening Lands from Eola-Amity Oregon and the 2008 Faiveley Mercurey from the Cotes Chalonnaise region of Burgundy. Pinot Noir Flight $16
We have featured the Robert Sinskey Vineyard Pinot Noir here at Jaynes since our first night. Robert Sinskey Vineyards is a small winery based in the town of Sonoma California that creates some of the finest Pinot Noir in the United States. Elegant and complex at excellent prices for their quality. For our California dollar theres just nothing like Sonoma for Pinot Noir. The cool coastal climate with winds from the San Pablo Bay and dense morning fog works perfectly with the hot California daytime sun. This two-faced climate gives the wine a nice tannic backbone inside delicious well ripened fruit. RSV is a pioneer in Biodynamic and Organic farming in CA and especially famous for their four legged weed eating sheep!
Our second featured wine is the 2009 Evening Lands Pinot Noir from the Eola-Amity Hills in Oregon. This wine has quickly become a sommeliers cult favorite: elegant and complex but most important very tasty! We think this is a perfect example of Oregon Pinot
The third wine in our flight takes us to Burgundy, specifically to Mercurey in the Cotes Chalonnaise region. Here we see some of the inspiration for the previous two wines. The vines used to create the 2008 Domaine Faiveley Mercurey are as old as 50 years old. Their struggle through clay and limestone soils adds great minerality. This is a fantastic wine from a historic house and an excellent example of old world winemaking.
