How Can Massage Help Digestive Disorders?

To treat digestive disorders, by massaging the affected area of the abdomen it can help stimulate the spontaneous movement of the digestive tract (a process called peristalsis) and reduce symptoms such as cramping, bloating, gas, and constipation.

Massage can also be used to relieve anxiety and tension that often worsen irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). However, abdominal massage should not be used during an acute IBS flare-up as it can aggravate symptoms. Neck, shoulder, back, and leg massages are helpful in reducing tension and can be performed during an IBS flare-up without complications.

Massage can be used during periods of remission for patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease to manage chronic pain, but it should also not be used during an active flare-up of ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease as it can exacerbate the pain and increase the risk of intestinal perforation.

How Can Massage Help After Procedures to Diagnose or Treat Digestive Disorders?

For patients undergoing a colonoscopy procedure, abdominal massage is helpful immediately after the procedure to eliminate the air that was used to inflate the colon during the examination. Massage has also been shown to help patients after colectomy surgery, in which all or part of the colon (also called the large intestine) is removed. One study showed that massage of the abdomen decreased postoperative pain and ileus (obstruction of the intestine due to it being paralyzed from surgery).

What Massage Techniques Are Used for Digestive Disorders?

A combination of massage techniques performed by an experienced massage therapist can provide relief, including:

Swedish Massage: Long strokes and gentle kneading movements applied to the surface muscles to help release muscle tension. Swedish massage practitioners suggest that this type of massage can help the body deliver nutrients and remove waste products from various tissues.

Deep Tissue Massage: Applied pressure to the deeper muscles and connective tissues that is focused on releasing adhesion (“knots”) or scar tissue. It may be performed along with Swedish massage.

Trigger Point Massage: Steady pressure is applied to targeted areas to release abdominal muscle spasms and promote blood flow to the area to aid healing.

Shiatsu: A form of Japanese massage in which the practitioner uses his or her body weight to apply rhythmic pressure to acupressure points in order to feel and simultaneously adjust the flow of energy ("Ki") through the meridians in your body.

If you are currently or ever have suffered from a digestive disorder remember alternative therapies can and do help! At Lemon Drop we would like to know if are suffering from any of these conditions so we can better treat you.

WELCOME 2010! Woo Hoo!

Dear Clients, Friends and Family,

2010 is now upon us in a big way. If you are like me, you’ve resolved to keep better health, seek more value for your money, and take more quality time for yourself. Now the trick is how to really do those things. At Lemon Drop Skin Care and Massage, we understand those needs and would like the opportunity to help you achieve them. We can help your muscles recover from a new exercise program, educate you with an affordable corrective skincare regime to help your skin look and feel its best, or simply allow your spirit that much-needed break to be able to give back to your loved ones.

We can help you achieve those things, while keeping our overhead expenses down and, thus our prices, low. This gives you more value for your dollar, without skimping on the quality of service, the sensitivity and compassion you need, or the high standards of personal care you deserve.

• As an example, we are proud to say that all of our “hour” massages are still a full 60 minutes of hands on massage.

• We also delight in making our massage, skincare and waxing services fit into your schedule by being available 7 days a week, including early morning and later evening appointments.

• We have also created a “pre-paid series” of services where you can receive each service at a lower cost. This is our way of helping you achieve your goals affordably.

On behalf of all of the therapists at Lemon Drop, we wish you good health, prosperity and inner peace so you can enjoy everything 2010 may offer.

Thank you for your loyal business and allowing all of us at Lemon Drop the opportunity to make a living doing what we love.

Cheers to 2010,

Macey R. Boughter, LA, LMP, owner

Lemon Drop Skin Care & Massage Takes Role as "Best Spa" Seriously

Earlier this year, Lemon Drop Skin Care & Massage was named the winner in the Kent Reporter’s “Best Spa Services” category, and this fall, it was nominated as “Best Day Spa” in the KING5 Best of Western Washington contest.

Owner Macey Boughter, LA, LMP, who started the business in 2006, takes these nominations and awards seriously by ensuring that her Kent-based skin care and massage studio offers a wide range of personal services. For example, a visit to the cozy Lemon Drop studio could include everything from its head-to-toe signature treatment and body wraps to skin care treatments and facials. A current customer favorite is the spa’s pumpkin enzyme facial, a special treatment Lemon Drop offers every October.

“Our customers love this deep cleansing and massage infused with vanilla, cinnamon and pumpkin,” Boughter said. “It’s relaxing and refreshing.”

Boughter, who is both an esthetician and a massage therapist, offers many of the services herself, but she also has a well-trained staff that includes three other therapists, each with their own specialties.

“We may be smaller than other spas, but we make up for our size by offering unique services and a talented staff,” Boughter said.

Boughter said the spa also sets itself apart by taking green to a new level. Since opening, Lemon Drop Skin Care and Massage has made a concerted effort to be completely paperless. A real-time online booking system allows customers to instantly schedule and pay for their appointments. When scheduling this way, customers receive e-mail confirmation of the appointment along with the spa’s policies, a reminder e-mail and a paperless receipt. Therapists can log in remotely to see their appointments, eliminating the need for multiple appointment books.

“Going paperless is a great way for us to be more efficient while doing our part to protect the environment,” Boughter explained.

Lemon Drop Skin Care & Massage is a full-service day spa located in the historic district of downtown Kent. For more information, contact owner Macey Boughter at 253-854-2499 or visit the spa’s website, www.lemondropskincare.com, or blog, http://lemondropkent.blogspot.com.
