Jennifer Bull is one of the licensed massage therapists and owner at Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy. She has been in the field of massage since 1999 and she is excited about providing solutions for complex cases, which have shown limited progress using other practitioners or modalities. She applies a multidimensional approach to the body and may apply various modalities during a session. These include intraoral massage, trigger point therapy, craniosacral therapy, neuromuscular re-education, cupping therapy, myofascial release, ashiatsu, kinesiotaping, and guasha. At present, however, she has decided to focus on craniosacral and intraoral patients only.

Medical massage therapy is one of the basic services at Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy. It is a treatment that is results oriented and specifically focused on conditions that have been diagnosed and prescribed by a naturopath, chiropractor, or physician. The massage therapist may apply several modalities or procedures during the treatment, but medical massage treatment will be focused only on those parts of the body that are related to the prescription or diagnosis.

Medical massage therapy offers a number of benefits, such as: the relaxation of tight and sore muscles that can lead to ischemia; deactivation of myofascial trigger points; relief for nerve compression or entrapment; reduction of pain and inflammation; improvement of circulation and relief for stress; restoration of strength and suppleness of the muscles; release of tension or muscles in spasm; and ability to help release toxins, such as lactic acid.

Those who need a sports massage therapist in Puyallup may also want to check out the Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy day spa. Sports massage is used for enhancing performance and boosting circulation and flexibility, or as a post event detoxification process to reduce muscle soreness. This kind of massage is vital for stretching and lengthening the muscles that athletes use the most.

They also offer basic Swedish, relaxation, wellness, and preventative massage. This is a group of techniques that are designed primarily for relaxing the muscles through the application of pressure on deeper muscles and bones, and then rubbing in the same direction of blood returning to the heart.

Hot stone massage makes use of smooth basalt stones with the practitioner gliding heated stones over large muscle groups using long sweeping strokes. This particular type of massage may have two purposes. The heat of the stones offers a stress reducing and relaxing massage. And the hardness of the stones may be used by the therapist to focus on certain problems with deeper pressure and more detailed work.

Meanwhile, craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on technique that is for releasing tensions deep in the body that may help treat pain and dysfunction and enhance whole-body performance and health. This method was developed and pioneered by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger while he was professor of biomechanics at the Michigan State University. CST is gaining in popularity as a preventive health measure because of its ability of enhancing resistance to disease, and its effectiveness for a broad range of health problems related to pain and dysfunction.

Intraoral massage therapy is used for disorders relating to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which is the connection between the skull and the jawbone. An injured TMJ usually results into pain with chewing, popping of the jaw, and clicking; headaches; nerve inflammation; swelling on the sides of the face; and dislocation of the TMJ. Various factors contribute to the muscle tightness and dysfunction that accompany this condition.
