Understanding the Modality & Foundations
Receiving a massage is an art form in itself. Many clients unintentionally work against their therapist by trying to 'help'—stiffening their neck to help the therapist turn their head, or holding their arm up in the air. Others hold their breath when a knot is pressed, triggering defensive muscular contraction.
Learning how to surrender your body weight completely to the table allows your therapist to work with maximum ease and effectiveness.
How It Works: Physiological & Muscular Rationale
When you consciously soften your muscles and allow the therapist to carry the full weight of your limbs, your proprioceptive reflex loops disengage, allowing deeper muscular relaxation without force.
Techniques & Manual Methodologies
• **Full Surrender**: Let your arms, head, and legs feel like heavy, limp sandbags.
• **Exhale Through Knots**: When the therapist works on a tender spot, take a slow, deep breath and exhale fully.
• **Silence Encouraged**: Release the need for polite social conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions
No! Keep your limbs completely limp and heavy. Therapists prefer to support and maneuver your limbs themselves so they can assess joint mobility accurately.
