I've recently met with Jay regarding a recent shoulder issue. Here is a bit about Jay's experience: Though proficient in Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Sports Massage, he is most drawn to therapeutic modalities that alleviate specific issues of pain or physical dysfunction. In this regard he has studied Kinesio-massage with Glann Hakey whose system combines techniques of orthopedic massage with facilitated stretching.
Just a reminder, our quest to get fit is a wholistic approach along the health and wellness spectrum. This includes our daily workouts and also what we do outside our workouts, including rest/recovery/nutrition/sleep. Prioritize massage as a monthly indulgence or when needed for problematic areas. When it's come down to increasing mobility and other injuries, I've reached out to a physical therapist, chiropractor, and massage therapist.
