Gain Confidence and Comfort with Trauma Massage

BY: Geri León, Geri León
There is no road map for dealing with the emotions and difficulties which face a person after going through a traumatic event. After working with many trauma victims over the years, I have learned there needs to be a unique approach to healing for each person and their personal needs and preferences should always come first. While every person’s path to living comfortably looks different, it has been my honor to help many people find relief by offering massage therapy which is specifically tailored to meet the needs of trauma victims. In this article, I will discuss a few of the ways I tailor my service to meet the needs of trauma victims and use massage therapy to provide aftercare and support to help them build confidence and comfort. If you want to explore massage therapy on a deeper level, please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information.

Client-Focused Approach

The aftercare process for trauma victims is different for every person, and my first goal is to understand the needs, comfort level and willingness to receive therapy for every person I work with. The goal of my therapy sessions is to ensure comfort for my patients, so if this means using only fully-clothed techniques or offering therapy in a well-lit room or any other scenario, I will always do my best to tailor my services to meet the needs of the person I am working with.

Gentle Techniques

As a certified massage therapist, I can employ any number of techniques to help people achieve relief from pain, reach levels of relaxation and improve their health. For trauma victims, I only perform techniques which i am sure will be within their comfort zone and explain in detail the process which will take place. When many people think of a massage, they imagine someone face down on a table in little clothing, but a massage certainly doesn’t have to be performed this way. Trauma victims can benefit from sitting in a comfortable position, fully clothed, and getting simple treatment such as hand massage, neck and back massage and other gentle techniques. Some trauma victims experience excess tension due to the stress they carry, and these simple techniques can help them find relief and live more comfortably.

Open Dialogue and Trust Building

The basis of any type of therapy is trust, and from the beginning of any session it’s my goal to build trust with my clients. I encourage people to not only discuss their pain points, expectations for therapy and level of comfort from the beginning, but also to talk with me throughout the massage process to let me know how they are feeling, what they are comfortable with and if what we are doing seems to be helpful. It’s my goal to continue to build trust through each session and help trauma victims improve their mental health, feel less physical and emotional pain and become more comfortable each day. If you feel like trauma massage therapy can benefit you or someone you love, please contact me today and I will do my best to help.
