A great massage therapist Pickering, clearly understands its all about releasing the client’s pain, so the client feels better.  Not always does the client feel better instantly due to the healing effect. Over the next 24 to 48 hours, the client may feel more pain and then almost magically, the pain disappears.  For example, to release lower back pain, a good therapist will massage the lower legs above the ankles concentrating on the acupuncture points in this area.  In our Western medicine, acceptance of acupuncture is relatively new, and many people think that needles must be used.  For many issues requiring the immediate release of pain, a good massage therapist will apply outside pressure to selective acupuncture points with their fingers or other tools on the surface to achieve a similar result.  However, for some issues deep within the body needles to obtain the required results.
