"Everything is connected to everything." --Mrs. Stephens, 10th-grade Chem

Body and mind. Bones, fascia, and muscles. Central nervous system and peripheral. Assessment and treatment. Client and therapist. All the interesting bits and pieces of bodywork knowledge that have fallen or will fall out of my brain. A blog to store and connect them all, hopefully.

Even Newton Would Get Massage

Job's Body: Bodywork neither adds nor subtracts (vs. Rx or surgery) to the tissue. The mechanical stimuation promotes the thixotropic change from gel to sol and the exchange of nutrients and wastes, and it increases energy potential. p. 69

Me/Sir Isaac: You might even say that a body in motion tends to stay in motion, whereas a body at rest tends to stay at rest.
