5 Massage Techniques to Ease Back Pain

1. Introduction

Back pain is a pervasive ailment that affects a significant portion of the global population, transcending age, gender, and lifestyle. According to statistics, approximately 70% of individuals will experience back pain at some point in their lives, which can dramatically trouble daily functioning and overall quality of life. As such, identifying effective relief methods is important for both healthcare professionals and those affected by these conditions!

In today’s times, there is an increasing reliance on services like back massage near me, as people seek effective ways to relieve back pain. Among the various therapeutic options available, massage therapy emerges as a promising natural solution. For homebodies, there is also, a body massage service at home in Mumbai, widely available as a convenient option for those who prefer to relax in their own space.

2. Understanding Back Pain

Back pain is a prevalent ailment, often stemming from common causes such as muscle strain, poor posture, and injuries. To alleviate these issues, massage therapy emerges as the best solution. Through techniques that promote relaxation, enhance blood flow, and reduce muscle tension, massage can effectively address the underlying sources of pain. There is also professional help available like a female-to-male massage home service, especially for those who might feel more comfortable with specific therapists. There are specific massage techniques, including deep tissue and trigger point therapy, explored for their efficacy in targeting and relieving back pain, thereby improving overall well-being.

3. Technique 1 — Swedish Massage

The efficiency of this technique is attributed to specific strokes such as effleurage and petrissage. Effleurage, characterized by gentle, gliding movements, enhances circulation and prepares the muscles for deeper work. Conversely, petrissage involves kneading and squeezing, which effectively alleviates knots and increases flexibility. Together, these strokes facilitate the release of built-up tension and foster relaxation. Swedish massage is particularly beneficial in situations where individuals seek general relaxation or experience mild discomfort.

4. Technique 2 — Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique that targets deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, focusing on the alleviation of chronic pain and muscle tightness. By employing slow strokes and friction, therapists work to break down adhesions and relieve tension in areas of the body afflicted by stress or injury. This method is particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from chronic back pain! The techniques utilized in deep tissue massage, including deep finger pressure and specific strokes, effectively penetrate muscle layers, providing relief at a physiological level.

5. Technique 3: Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger point therapy is a specialized therapeutic technique dedicated to alleviating discomfort associated with specific muscle knots known as trigger points. These hyperirritable spots within the skeletal muscle can lead to localized pain and referred pain, where discomfort radiates to other areas of the body, complicating the pain experience. The methodology of trigger point therapy typically involves the application of manual pressure, either through direct touch or with the assistance of therapeutic tools. This targeted pressure is instrumental in stimulating blood flow to the affected muscles. This therapeutic technique is particularly advantageous for individuals suffering from localized pain conditions, such as tension headaches or sports injuries.

6. Technique 4: Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a specialized manual therapy aimed at alleviating pain and improving flexibility by targeting the fascia, the connective tissue that envelops muscles and organs. Throughout the body, fascia can become restricted due to trauma, inflammation, or habitual posture, leading to discomfort and reduced mobility. One of the primary benefits of myofascial release is its ability to decrease pain by releasing these restrictions, thus enhancing range of motion and overall functional ability. Techniques employed in the myofascial release include sustained pressure on specific points and gentle stretching of the fascia. These methods promote relaxation and stimulate blood flow, resulting in improved tissue health and decreased tension throughout the body.

7. Technique 5: Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone massage is a therapeutic technique that employs heated stones to enhance the traditional massage experience. This unique approach utilizes smooth, heated basalt stones, strategically placed on specific areas of the body, to facilitate relaxation and alleviate muscle by applying of heat not only aids in soothing tight muscles but also promotes increased circulation, allowing for the effective distribution of oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. This technique is particularly beneficial in scenarios involving stress relief and chronic tension, providing a holistic remedy for both physical and emotional strain.

8. Conclusion

Overall, massage techniques play a pivotal role in managing back pain effectively, offering both relief and relaxation. Individuals are encouraged to explore these techniques as potential solutions for their discomfort. Consulting a professional massage therapist ensures a customized approach, maximizing the benefits of treatment for optimal results.

Tired Eyes

WHUMPTOBER DAY 26: Prompt: “working to exhaustion”

Fandom: Batfam/DC

MASTERLIST ⛤ WHUMPTOBER WORKS

🕸 ⋆ ⁶𖤐⁶ ࣪⋆🕸

You weren’t tired. No. You just needed to rest your eyes a little, that was all.

The screen of the computer had begun to hurt your eyes, making your temples to throb so, with your elbows planted firmly on the table, you began to massage them to ease the pain, but here you found your eyes dropping closed and your head falling towards table. The dim lighting of the cave didn’t help much either.

As soon as your head hit your clammy palm, you jolted awake, sitting up abruptly and straightening your back against the chair, snapping back to the mountain of work that you needed to get done.

Your fingers moved sluggishly against the keyboard as you typed up the reports. It had been a busy week and so you were left with a large pile of unfinished essays to type and not a lot of time to do them. It was late; the rest of the boys had returned to their beds, deciding to write their reports the following day, but you were already behind which meant that despite the ungodly hour you were still plastered to the chair.

Reaching blindly for your coffee with one hand you wrapped your hands around the ceramic and brought it to your lips. The drink was lukewarm and bitter as it ran over your tongue, but you were desperate for the buzz that the caffeine gave you.

You hadn’t realised that the sun had crept up of you until Dick strolled into the room, barefoot and in his pyjamas. He did a double take when he saw you, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

“Y/n?” He asked, frowning at you. At the sound of his voice you glanced over at him briefly, noting his messy hair. He observed the fact that you were still wearing the same clothes as you were when he went to bed last night. “Did you even go to sleep?”

You shook your head, continuing to press your fingers into the little plastic squares not even nothing to look his direction as you continued to work. “Nope.”

He narrowed his eyes. “How long have you been awake?”

“Dunno.” You shrugged. “What time is it?”

“6”

“ ‘Bout…26- 27 hours?”

He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Y/n. You need sleep.”

“I will. I just need to get this done first. You can get me another coffee though?”

“Y/n-“

“Sorry Dick, can’t hear you over my cleverness.”

He rolled his eyes, but snatched the cup from your hand anyway and went to prepare breakfast.

It seemed like forever before you finally entered the last word on your essay slumped back against the chair. You were feeling exhausted and your body had began to grow stiff from sitting in the same place for so long, so after submitting it you shuffled into the kitchen where your brothers were sat lounging on chairs.

“Woah, Y/n.” Damian said through a mouthful of bacon that he had piled onto his plate “You look like hell.”

“Thanks Dames.” You scoffed. “Just what a woman wants to hear.

“I didn’t mean it like that-“

“She hasn’t slept.” Dick interjected.

Tim narrowed eyes at you over the top of his book. “What? Why?”

“I had too much to do, Jaybird.”

“Well then go to bed now.”

“Can’t.” You grabbed a slice of toast and slid it onto a plate. “Still got too much to do. Besides, I’m not tired.”

“Sure.” He rolled his eyes and went back to his book.

The rest of the day dragged on. You had busied yourself with small tasks that needed to be done during the day and then once all of those were done, you had spent some time in the training room to work on your technique, but your movements were slow and well below par so eventually you gave up, slipped off of the blue mat and dragged yourself towards the showers.

You twisted the dial all the way to the left, waiting for it to settle to an even temperature as you stepped out of your clothes. When you climbed into the shower, the cold water stung your skin as it ran down your back but it kept you wide awake and on your feet so with shaky hands you grabbed the shampoo bottles and began to massage it into your scalp. Although you were in and out quickly, by the time you were done and stepped out of the shower your body was wracked with shivers. Wrapping a thick white towel around you, you dried yourself off before changing into something comfier and creeping back down the stairs now feeling slightly more awake.

You made your way into the library, where shelves filled to the brim with books lined the walls. You ran your fingers against the shelves and noted that when you pulled your hand away you had collecting a thin sheen of dust.

“Don’t even think about it.”

Tim was rounding the corner to return his book that had been absentmindedly flicking through the all day but found that it didn’t give him the thrill he was looking for, so he had wandered back to the library to select another on me when he heard you shuffling around.

“But it needs to be done-“

“Alfred will do it.” Tim told you, placing a large hand on your shoulders and steering you away from the shelves after you had selected a book. A blue hardback covered dainty little flowers embroidered along the spine.

“But he already has so much to do.” You protested.

“It’s his job, y/n/n. And you need to get some sleep.”

You sighed. “I’m not tired, Tim. Seriously lay off it.”

He raised his hands in surrender and wheeled away in a huff. You settled down on the plush sofa, bringing your knees to your chest to read under the gentle light and revel in the silence for just a few moments. Tim settled opposite you, sprawling out across the other couch.

For the next few hours the only sound that filled the room was the gentle flick of turning pages. That was until the other three came bundling in, but you didn’t notice. You had drifted off into a mindless sleep.

You were woken to a a gentle nudge on your shoulder and you sat up abruptly.

“Hmm? What?”

“You fell asleep.” Jason told you.

“No I didn’t…” you mumbled.

Jason pursed his lips. “I think you did.”

You blinked at him.

“Seriously, y/n just go to bed.” Damian told you.

You contemplated for a moment before hauling yourself up onto your feet. You stumbled across the room when a sudden wave of exhaustion washed over you and you were forced to grip onto the counter to keep yourself upright. When you moved to take another step, dragging your feet along the carpet you stumbled again.

“Alright. That’s it.” Dick stood up and moved across the room with one big stride, picking you up effortlessly and throwing you over his shoulder.

“Hey! Put me down.”

Someone snickered behind you.

“No can do little bat. You’re going to bed.”

He hauled you off to your room ignoring your remarks and pointless excuses. When he reached your door, he threw you over his shoulder and onto the bed. You tried to crawl away, but he just grabbed your ankle and pushed you back onto your pillows.

“Sleep.” He told you firmly, using his voice that only came out when he was ordering the rest of you around during a patrol. You pouted, glaring at him through hooded eyes, but he just gave you a little smirk, drew the curtains and moved to the door ignoring your antics.

“Goodnight, y/n. Sleep well.”

cozy cuddles (sv5)

writes little messages on sticky notes and leaves them around the room - "you're strong, schatz!" or "chocolate in the mini fridge!"

runs errands during team debriefings to pick up her favorite pain relief meds (even if it means facing down a grumpy Horner)

insists on giving her foot massages, even though his technique is more enthusiastic than professional

during movie night, pauses the cheesy rom-com to bring her a cup of hot tea and a single perfect red rose

falls asleep on the couch next to her, one hand unconsciously resting on her stomach in a silent gesture of love and affection

sneaks into her hotel room during practice sessions to leave a hidden stash of her favorite candy bars in the mini fridge.

count ⭒ kento nanami

TW: smut (minors dni), edging, denied orgasm, biting, lil tiny bit of pain kink, reader is kinda fucked dumb, and some wee degradation mixed w/ "punishment", you know kento's just sweetly mean and ultimately puthy drunk sjskkaks

A/N: bajsksks this is my debut on this blog and in the jjk fandom i'm saur nervous lol 🫣 but i had this thought n couldn't get it out my head...

nanami kento is the type to make you count — out loud — each and every one of his thrusts.

he's so mean, finding a sick satisfaction in the way you struggle to keep track. but of course, it's expected to be much too hard on focusing how many times his thick cock deliciously bullies the soft, gummy walls of your cunt.

kento isn't faring too much better himself, pussy drunk as always when you're just so tight and warm and wet. his dick slips in and out with ease, sweet hole molded perfectly for the hefty girth with how long he's worked to split you open. he loves to switch up his technique for shits and giggles, keep your cunt guessing, and that pretty little head of yours thinking despite the way it's utterly melting.

"f-fifteen!" you squeal out at the particularly hard but slow thrust that drags the swollen in and up, up, and up until the tip of his cock can relentlessly massage that bundle of nerves you never truly are able to reach on your own.

your lover keeps his hips flexed, pressed snug against yours and brushes back sweaty, disheveled bangs from all the exertion. he can feel how he twitches repeatedly in tandem with the spasms of your squishy pussy, desperate to milk him for all he's worth and drain him dry.

he snarls, "what a greedy lil cunt," and braces his muscles. looming over your prone figure sprawled on the bed and calculates his next move.

"sixt-teen! seven-seven...teen!! eight... eight... eight...!"

oh, kento's brutal. he laughs without humor, hips only continuing to pick up their onslaught of a pace. aggressive thrusts that cause your cunt to pitifully weep and squelch in delirium. the rate at which he slams into you would almost hurt if he thankfully wasn't cushioned between your plush thighs, a crazed smile growing on the depraved man's handsome face at the way your tits jiggle in time with the sound of skin smacking harshly against skin.

"silly thing, fucked too dumb to count properly." then he coos, sarcastic words laced in faux saccharine. "are two-digit numbers too hard for you?"

you whimper, tears pooling in your eyes and cling to his broad shoulders. "ken, kento... ah, please!"

"let me help you, precious," he whispers reassuringly and your legs squeeze around his waist in appreciation and anticipation.

your darling, lovely, wonderful kento. surely, he'll let you finally cum...!

the weight of his strong body pushes your back deep down into the mattress, pelvis flush against yours. happy trail tickles at your sensitive, puffy clit. he doesn't pull back no matter how much you whine and writhe beneath him, pussy clenching uncontrollably at another ruined orgasm.

curse his damn stamina and sadistic attitude!

"kento, no...!"

"and how many was that?"

"f-four," you sniffle pitifully.

"smart baby, what a lucky guess. so you do know how to count!

he rewards you with a nip to your tender breast, slightly taking away the pain of edging with a sting elsewhere. with it comes a muddled clarity that will help clear your brain.

it's all part of the game. and nanami kento is a man that never loses.

"shall we try double-digits again?" he teases, adoring the way your eyebrows scrunch and your lower lip juts out in a pout. even more in love with the scratches of honor from your nails digging into his back when he begins to grind against you. "something tells me you just might finally get it right this time, sweetheart."

2.3k | masseur!joel x f!reader | masterlist

This was a request from @megangovier20. ty @dark-scape for the title. Also highly recommend @swiftispunk's amazing masseuse!reader fic: say it with your hands.

warnings: I8+ non-outbreak, Joel jacks off, unsafe PiV, reader pressures joel, wants a rough touch, can sit on Joel

Your friend referred you to Joel for your back, and after having his hands on you that first time, you needed more.  He was gentle and professional.  Too gentle. Too professional. You yearned for a rougher touch and he couldn’t stop calling you “ma’am” at first, even when you asked him not to.  The room was tranquil and minimalist.  There was a shelf for your clothes, a hook for your keys, a chair, and a massage table.  It was dimly lit and he wore a linen tunic with matching drawstring pants.  He gave you privacy while you stripped down to just a towel. 

Initially, you were startled by how handsome he was – the perfect hook of his nose, his tortured brow, and sad eyes. The mesmerizing pattern of his facial hair.  But you were at ease once he spoke in a low, calming voice as he kneaded your back.   “You’re too young ‘n healthy to be walkin’ around with back pain” was the first thing he said with you face down on his table.  The depth and masculine softness of his voice mesmerized you, and from then on, you tried to keep him talking as much as you could.  It was hard, though –  he wasn’t much of a talker.  

Joel’s hands on your back did as much for you as any other man’s hands between your legs.   It had been a long time since a man touched you at all.  But as far as you could remember, no one’s hands compared to his, not even close.  Strong and massive, gliding across your smooth skin, firmly pressing into your muscles, they turned you on unlike anything you’d felt before.

Every time you left his office, you were in desperate need of release.  You squeezed your thighs together as soon as you got in your car, and once in the privacy of your bedroom, you thought about nothing but his hands all over you as you brought yourself to climax.  It never took long after an appointment with Joel. 

-

One day, you asked Joel if he could be a little rougher with you.  

“Rougher?” he asked skeptically. 

“Don’t be afraid to hurt me,” you told him.  

He was hesitant and explained he’s trained in specific massage techniques, “and rougher ain’t one of’em.”  He offered to try the massage gun on you instead.  The thought of a tool instead of his hands didn’t do it for you, so you told him maybe another time.  

The next time, you slipped him some extra cash and asked him to work you over as hard as he was willing to.  He searched your eyes and must have seen the desperation, because he wouldn’t take the folded bills,  but he finally agreed. 

At first, it was only slightly rougher than usual.  

“Good, that’s great,” you kept telling him.  “Perfect.”  Your praise gave him the confidence to continue.  “More,” you kept telling him.  “Harder.”  

When he finished that day, there was something in the air between you, like each of you knew this was going to become more than massage therapy.  Seeing it in your eyes appeared to be the confirmation he needed. He again refused the extra cash.  

In the following weeks, when you said “harder” or “please, rougher,” he obliged, often grunting with the effort.  He used his elbows at times.  

“Damn, you like it real rough, don’t ya?”  he muttered at one point.   It was a far cry from his professionalism at the first appointment, and it turned you on that you were breaking down his walls.  He was good at hiding his arousal, but you could hear it in his voice.  

At the end of the appointments, he always composed himself back into the perfect professional.  He scanned your body and wet his lips, but there was no sign he’d make a move.  He had the self-control you lacked. 

-

One week, you asked him to get on top of you.

“If that’s what ya need, sugar. . . I’m here to give ya what ya need.” Those words sent a rush of blood to your loins.  

At your urging, Joel got on the massage table and straddled your ass.  He used his fists and knuckles and his body weight.  You sighed and moaned as he pushed the sweetest pops and cracks out of your skeleton. His grunts and heavy breaths made a symphony with your own sounds.  

You ached and throbbed between the legs.  After a particularly sensual sigh left your mouth, you felt his crotch twitch before lifting off your ass. He wasn’t going to let you feel him get hard, but the knowledge of it made you swell with need. 

“Lower,” you said. He scooted back, moving down your body, and kneaded your back lower and lower until his hands were almost at your ass. 

“Lower,” you pleaded. “Lose the towel.” He took the towel off you, and his big hands slowly crept onto your ass cheeks. 

“Yes,” you said. “Feels so good. . .”  

He took two handfuls of your ass and inhaled loudly.  

"Ohhh,” you sighed.  You were close to coming. 

“Feels that good, huh?” he said in a low, horny murmur.  

He flattened his hands and slid them from your ass, down the curve of your lower back, up to your shoulder blades and said “You’re somethin’ else, you know that?” 

The contrast of his light touch and the desire in his voice did it for you.  You clenched your thighs together and sighed as you reached your release.  You dug your pubic bone into the table with your pulsations and he took his hands off you in astonishment. 

“Fuuuck,” he sighed and brought his hands down gently on your back.  “Was that what I think it was?”

“You have a way with those hands, Joel.”  

“God damn,” he said.  

-

“Will you lie down on me?” you asked. 

“I, uh, I’m really enjoyin’ all this. . .but I think I better not right now.” 

“You dunno how good you make me feel,” you gushed.  “You dunno much I need this."

He was quiet.  “Nice of you to say that. . . tryin’ to be professional, but god damn, you make it hard.”  

“And that's exactly how I want you,” you purred.  “Come on.  Lie down on me for just a minute.  Let me feel you for just a minute, and I swear to God I’ll leave.” 

After a few seconds he agreed, “Only have a minute ‘til I gotta go anyway.”  

Your hands were under your head with your elbows out to the side.  He walked on his knees back up the table, pants dragging against your sides.  Then he slid his large, veiny hands under your arms, sending a rush through you.  He put his forearms down on the table.  Then he got in a plank and you felt the linen of his tunic hang against your needy skin. 

He dipped his hips and lightly grazed your ass with the hardness in his pants.  He murmured into your hair, “Guess this is what you want?”

“Mmmm, yeah. . .” you replied.

Then he laid onto you, lowering his pelvis first.  You moaned and he sighed as his hard bulge pushed against your inner thighs. 

"Gimme all your weight."

He slowly lowered more of his weight.  

“God damn, sugar. . . you got me breakin’ all kinda rules.” He swelled harder against you, making your whole body weak with desire, and you savored the weight of his body on yours.  Your insides buzzed from head to toe.  His hips just barely thrust into yours, making you wetter.  

“Mmm,” you sighed.

He stayed there for a minute, just barely rutting into you, then sighed loudly as he climbed down from the table.  “Sorry, sugar.  That’s it for today.”  His massive palm lightly stroked your upper back.  “I’ll let you get dressed.” 

You turned over onto your side, facing him before he could turn around to leave.  You followed his eyes to your naked breasts before he could avert them.  He swallowed and clasped his hands in front of his crotch, trying to regain his composure. 

“Joel….” you said and lightly stroked his inner elbow.  His eyes met yours again and he bit his lip.  “Thank you.” 

He winked. “See ya next time, sugar.” 

-

You looked at the clock and realized you might make him late for his next appointment.  You quickly dressed in a daze, your whole body tingling with the afterglow as you put on your jeans and t-shirt.  It wasn’t until you were in the parking lot that you realized you left your keys on the hook in his massage room.  When you came back in, the receptionist was closing the appointment book.  

“Excuse me, I don’t want to interrupt Joel’s next appointment, but I left my keys in there. . ..”

“Oh, you were his last appointment for the day.  I think he’s probably gone.”

“Oh. . .” 

“Go ahead, it should be unlocked.” 

-

As you approached the door and put your hand on it, you heard him sighing over the squish of skin.  Your breath hitched.  So that was why he had to go.  Fair enough.  You took a deep breath, turned the handle, and opened the door.  

In the dimly lit room, Joel was seated in the chair with his legs spread wide.  His strong, veiny hand was wrapped around his hard cock. He froze when you opened the door, pausing mid-stroke. You nearly scared him to death.  He opened his mouth, but words didn’t come out.  There was a look in your eyes that paralyzed him.  He watched with bated breath as you closed the door behind you.  You took your keys off the wall and suddenly he looked more embarrassed, like of course, that’s why you’re back.  

He started to tuck himself away, but you shook your head, don’t.  You stepped out of your shoes, and as soon as you pocketed your keys, you unbuttoned your pants.   You took  your underwear down with them and his eyes fell to your nakedness.  He looked at you with his chest heaving, mouth watering, and rubbed his lips together as you crossed the room.  He was holding his dick back against himself and cupping his balls with his other hand. 

When you got to him, you put your hands on his shoulders, and slowly mounted him.  You stayed hovering over his lap, then you took off your shirt and bra.  One more step and you would be directly over his cock.  “God damn, you’re hot,” he said to your tits, then took a deep breath.  

“Heard you’re off the clock now,” you replied in a low, sexy voice.  

“Guess I am,” he murmured, glancing up at your face.  

You looked down at his stiff member, weeping with precum, and you wet your lips.  He held it at attention for you and gently cupped your ass with his other hand.  He gave it a light squeeze with his palm, prompting you to take that last step forward.  His face looked about as needy as you were for his body on yours earlier.  His cock looked delicious and its angry pink head was begging to be inside you.  His girth was impressive, and it had been a long time for you, but you knew you could take him because you had never, ever been so ready.  Your body yearned to be filled by his.  

You lowered yourself onto him, and when his cock’s swollen head met your dripping entrance, you sighed as your body took him in.  You sank right down, letting his girth spread you apart.  You gasped when your bodies were flush and sighed as your body finished rearranging itself around him.

“Fuuck,” he breathed.  He looked down at where your bodies met, then looked back up at you, astonished.  

You gently rocked there, enjoying the fullness of him all the way inside you. His pubic bone, cushioned by neatly trimmed hair, rubbed against your clit and your pleasure built rapidly.  

You began to lift and lower yourself on his rock-hard shaft and he grunted as his hips moved in rhythm with yours.  Each time you claimed his full length, the tension inside you swelled.  He looked back and forth between your eyes and mouth, then you kissed him.  He eagerly accepted your mouth, and when your tongue parted his lips, he sucked with an, "Mmm."  Your lips broke away only to whimper as you rode him, building quickly toward your orgasm.  Your breath was hot against his cheek, and his against yours as you rode his thick cock.  His head fell back with a moan.

“Easy. sugar. I’m not lastin’ long like this.” His voice amplified everything you were feeling.  The next time you took his full shaft inside you,  you stayed down and rocked your hips again. 

“Fuck, you feel too good,” he panted and a look of pain spread across his face. He held both your ass cheeks. His lips puckered with an exhale, his climax looming ever closer.  You came down hard on him one last time and groaned as your tension released into something otherworldly.  You clenched around him and a powerful flex of his strong arms abruptly lifted you by the ass, prying you off his cock.  

He came as soon as his cock sprang out of you.  Still in the throws of your own climax, you pulsed and moaned and and sat on his thighs watching the last of his cum dribble onto his uniform.  

“Sorry,” he panted, catching his breath.  He was self-conscious about the timing, even though you came.  

“Shouldn’t have started without me,” you teased him. You sat there for a minute in silence and rested your head on his shoulder.  He rubbed your back. 

You asked him, “What were you thinking about?”

“Hmm?” he asked. 

“When I walked in on you.  What were you thinking about?”

He looked at the massage table.  “How ‘bout I show you next time?”

here’s a thought: massaging anton’s back after swimming as he told you he was in a bit of pain after not swimming for a long time. you had looked up what techniques to use to ease his pain and he just appreciates it so much!! once you’re done, you’d kiss his neck, shoulders and all the way down his back just as something sweet (i think he’d melt tbh) - 🌷 (btw sorry if this was a bit fluffy, i guess it could turn into nsfw depending on what else you do to him🤭)

he would love it so much, getting him to relax after you could feel the tension in his muscles and how he was walking around uncomfortably :/ he takes such good care of you it would only make sense to return the favor

of course it starts off innocent but it’s hard to resist anton when he’s not wearing a shirt and when you can see the way hes so relaxed, hair falling over his eyes, he looks so eatable ^_^

Hello! This is my first time asking and I wanted to ask for Wukong headcanons for a reader with backpain? I’m projecting :’) All of my friends call me an old man because of it.

Hope I’m doing this right!

Sincerely,

☕️ Coffee Anon

Aight so- I'm assuming this is about ESAU!Wukong-

In which case, this technically shouldn't be just about Wukong, cuz at least part of your champions wouldn't leave you alone the moment they realize you're in some form of pain- But I'mma just do specifically Wukong anyway. Also, I generally don't do any form of request unless I'm in the topic and actually have knowledge on more details. hfgnhfgnhfg

Don't worry about having to pick anything up, he's gotchu covered.

He'd be down to give you a massage anytime, anywhere, if you ask him to.

If the pain is a byproduct of stress, he might also take care of whatever is giving you stress.

He'd be willing to show you some stretching techniques you can do to ease the pain or prevent it from happening as easily.

In case your pain can get influenced by the temperature, he'll hand you his cape so you're not getting cold and potentially having worse pain.

Just a few points and might be a bit scuffed cuz my own back pain is just solved by not hunching over my desk like a shrimp- So I'm not well versed in the topic-

Hi. Can I request some headcanons of Edward Elric with a hypermobile s/o? I’m hypermobile and I have a track record of kneecap problems.

When you kneed him

Edward is always concerned about YN's knees and often reminds them to be careful when doing physical activities. He'll even help YN with stretching exercises to strengthen their knees and prevent future injuries.

YN often has to wear knee braces or supports, and Edward is always there to help them put them on or take them off. He also doesn't mind carrying YN when their knees are bothering them.

Despite YN's knee problems, they still love to dance, and Edward is always happy to oblige. He'll spin YN around the room and even dips them carefully to avoid any unnecessary strain on their knees.

YN's hypermobility can sometimes cause them to dislocate their joints, including their kneecaps. Edward is always quick to pop them back into place and make sure YN is comfortable.

When YN is having a bad knee day, Edward will often take them out for a relaxing day at home. They'll watch movies, play board games, and just enjoy each other's company without any physical strain.

Edward is always researching new techniques and remedies for YN's knee problems. He'll try out different stretches, exercises, and even home remedies to see what works best for them.

YN's knee problems can be a source of frustration and pain, but Edward is always there to comfort them. He'll give YN massages or even draw them a hot bath to help ease their discomfort.

When YN has to attend events or go out in public, Edward is always mindful of their knee problems. He'll scout out the venue ahead of time to make sure there are no stairs or other obstacles that might cause YN pain.

YN's knee problems can be a challenge, but Edward never lets it get in the way of their relationship. He loves YN for who they are, and their knee problems are just a small part of what makes them unique and special to him.

Despite YN's knee problems, they're always up for adventure, and Edward is right there beside them. They'll go hiking, exploring, and even rock climbing (with proper safety precautions, of course). Edward is always ready to support YN and help them overcome any obstacles that come their way.

Your kneecap,

Admin Sav

Alright, I have been working on a lil something for my Pop Star AU. A two shot!

Here is the first part and I'll let you guys know when the second part is posted.

------------

To the outside world it looked like Floyd Barlowe had the perfect life. After his boy-band broke up, the fourteen year old started a solo career which quickly became successful. And now, almost seven years later, he had all the success and fame anyone his age could want and there was no doubt that he would be successful for a long time.

But the truth was that Floyd’s life was a nightmare.

—---------

Floyd stared out the window of his hotel room on Vacay Island, watching the distant waves crash over the beach. His eyes were vacant as he stared out at the scenery, not bothering to take it in. 

Publicly he knew he was here on a ‘relaxing vacation to celebrate the release of his latest album’ but Floyd knew that the week would be spent making content for his social medias and doing photoshoots and promos for whatever brand deal he was currently on. He also knew that he wouldn’t get to actually enjoy the island during what little downtime he had because Floyd’s manager kept him on a short leash. 

Floyd readjusted his position on the window seat before looking back at his room. It was a fairly small and basic room with all the necessities; a bed, desk, TV, and a bathroom.  There were also two doors, one led to the hallway and the other led to the room next door where his manager was staying. He knew that this type of room was often used for friends or family traveling together but Floyd knew it was so his manager could keep a close eye on him. And have access to him in the middle of the night.

As a teenager this would have made Floyd feel icky and gross but this has been happening for so long he just felt numb. Though Floyd didn’t know if it was a result of him having gotten used to the older man’s treatment or from the medications constantly running through his system.

Floyd kept staring out the window and watched as a surfer got back to shore and picked up their board, seemingly done for the day. His eyes followed the figure as they walked across the beach and back to the boardwalk, as they got closer Floyd could see that it was a man.

The man walked back down the boardwalk, surfboard under one arm, and as passed underneath Floyd’s second story window he was able to see the surfer better. He nearly fell out of his seat in shock because that was Spruce!

While it may have been a while since Floyd had last seen his older brother he was able to recognize him anywhere. Once he had recovered Floyd pressed his face against the glass, watching his Spruce walk down the boardwalk until he left his line of sight.

—----------

Shortly after spotting Spruce his manager had returned and Floyd was pulled off for various tasks, leaving him exhausted and sore. Now it was early evening and he was back in his room while his manager went off to do who knows what.

Floyd sat on his bed watching some random reality show while attempting to ease the pains in his bad leg by using the stretches and massage techniques his physical therapist taught him.

He eventually gave up and submitted to the fact he was going to be in pain until his manager forced pain meds down his throat. Floyd hated taking his meds because of how empty they made him feel. He even hated the pain ones because he never knew if they were really for the pain or for something else.

Laying back on his bed Floyd stared up the ceiling and his mind drifted back to Spruce. Gosh he would love nothing more than to try and find him, for the chance of seeing his big brother again. But he couldn’t just leave, for the moment he did his manager would find out and see it as an escape attempt. And as soon as this ‘vacation’ was done Floyd would be locked up back in the mental hospital. 

Floyd began to fiddle with his shirt, pulling at the tread and unraveling it. He didn’t know what his manager was up to but he had a pretty good feeling he was off drinking at the hotel bar. If he could just get out of the building he might be able to get away with leaving, as long as he was back before morning. Especially if the man was too drunk to make Floyd partake in his nighttime games. 

Sitting up Floyd bit his lip, wondering if it was worth the risk before deciding that yes. It was.

He carefully got off the bed and went to his bag and pulled out his leg brace, strapping it on. His manager tended to keep his arm crutches and cane hidden to make it harder for Floyd to run off. So, as much as it was going to suck, Floyd was without any of his normal mobility aids. 

Floyd limped to the door and opened it slightly and peeked out to make sure no one was around, once he was sure that the coast was clear he left his room and headed to the stairs. 

He would take the elevator but it led to the hotel lobby. And not only would the bar be in sight but Floyd wouldn’t be surprised if the person at the front desk was in his manager’s pocket. Which meant that as soon as he was in sight of them they would alert his manager. Wouldn’t be the first time. 

So instead Floyd was stuck slowly inching down the stairs, gripping onto the railing for dear life. Until, finally, he spotted an emergency exist to the outside world. He pushed the heavy door open and found himself standing behind the building in the bright sunlight.

—-----------

It wasn’t until a half hour of careful, and painful, walking it then occurred to him that Floyd had no idea where Spruce might be. All he had was a vague direction in mind and there was no telling that was the only place he had gone today. 

Floyd just about collapsed onto a bench on the side of the boardwalk, reaching down to rub at the tender muscles on his bad leg. He groaned in pain, a part of him just wanted to go back to the hotel but at this point it was too late. He had already made it this far, might as well keep going. 

“Yo man” he looked up to see a man who smelled vaguely of weed. “You good? You look rough.”

“Yeah,” he stammered “yeah I’m fine…”

The man squinted at him “do I know you from somewhere? You look familiar.” 

Floyd sighed and got ready to put on his ‘celebrity face’ as this usually led to him being recognised. Though he was more than ready to delay it as much as possible. “No, I don’t think we’ve met.”

The man peered at him closer before his face eased up “oh! I know what you remind me of.” Here we go “you look like that restaurant dude, Bruce!”

That… Was not what he was expecting “restaurant dude?” Floyd repeated.

“Yeah! Bruce” the man said “you know. Long purple hair, tall wife? Bruce!”

“I don’t know who you’re talking about,” Floyd said.

“Really” he looked surprised “you two look a lot alike. You dudes could totally be related. Anyways, you should check out his restaurant” the man pointed down the boardwalk at a building not too far away “they got killer nachos.” 

“Oh” he said “well uh… Thanks.”

The man, who was clearly high, walked off and Floyd went back to rubbing his leg. The interaction was strange but… Good. It was nice to not be recognized for once.

As he massaged his leg Floyd frowned to himself, he didn’t know what it was but that name sounded familiar. Where did he know it from?

“Bruce” he mumbled, as if saying it aloud would jog his memory “Bruce, Bruce…. Spruce!”

That’s it!

Logically Floyd had always known that Spurce’s real name had been Bruce, kind of like Branch’s being Brandon, but since his older brother had never gone by it he had never associated the name with him. 

Straightening Floyd looked over at the building that the man had pointed at, while Bruce was a common name this was the closest he had gotten to a lead all night! So, despite the pain, he stood up again and started walking. 

As he got closer to the restaurant he was able to see the sign that read ‘Bruce and Sons.’ Looks like this was the place, Floyd headed to the door, navigating past the tables and chairs out front. 

Once inside he headed to the host stand where a young woman, around his age, stood and she greeted him with a smile. “Hi, do you have a reservation?” 

“No... Um” Floyd sputtered “this is going to sound weird but I was wondering if I could see Sp- I mean Bruce?”

“You want to see the owner?” She frowned “I’m sorry but not just anyone can see him, you know?”

“Yeah, no, I get that” he said “but if I could see him then I would be really grateful.”

The girl’s face then light up “hang on, I know you! You’re Floyd!”

He repressed a sigh and smiled awkwardly “yup, that’s me.”

Floyd wasn’t very good at the whole ‘celebrity charisma’ that others were. In fact, he had to practice and run over questions for interviews and often answers were fed to him through an earpiece.

“Oh my gosh!” The hostess squealed “I am such a big fan! I’ve been following you ever since the second ‘Music Is Life’ movie. Which was amazing by the way, I still think you should have gotten a bigger role instead of just singing at the end.”

Floyd just nodded along and kept his ‘celebrity smile’ on his face as the girl rambled and fangirled. Thankfully, someone intervened. “Emily,” a woman walked over. “Is there a reason why you are keeping a customer hostage over here instead of seating them?”

“Oh he doesn’t want a table” the girl waved dismissively “but look! It’s Floyd Barlowe. You know, the celebrity?”

The woman’s eyes widened and Floyd had to resist the urge to shrink in on himself, great, another fan. “Emily,” she said, “why don’t you take a break? I’ll handle things here.”

“But-”

“Now!” She said sternly and Emily’s eyes widened before running off. 

The woman turned to Floyd and he was able to take her in better, she wore a pair of light blue jeans and a yellow top. But the thing that caught his eye was how tall she was, at least six feet. 

She stuck out a hand “I’m Brandy.”

He shook it “Floyd, but you already know that.”

Brandy nodded “yes… Forgive me for asking but… Do you have a brother named Bruce?”

“Yes” he said, “but I always knew him as ‘Spruce,’ that's part of the reason why I came in here, to see if he’s the same guy.”

She smiled “well, I can say that Bruce and Spruce are the same person. He’s my husband.” 

“Wait” he stared at her “really?”

Brandy nodded “really. If you’d like, I can take you back to see him.”

As much as he wanted too Floyd didn’t think he could take another step without falling over “um… I’m good, I can wait here.”

Her eyes flicked down to his leg brace “well, why don’t you sit down at the very least? It’s not too busy tonight and we’re closing soon anyways.”

“Yeah, yeah that sounds good,” Floyd agreed.

Brandy led him over to a booth and Floyd gratefully sat down and took a look around. Growing up Spruce always talked about wanting to move near a beach and run his own restaurant, so he was happy to see that he had managed to accomplish that.

Floyd was pulled out of his thoughts when someone entered his peripheral vision and he turned to face them, the man beamed at him. “Floyd!”

“Spruce?” Floyd stood, grinning.

He was pulled into a big bear hug and was briefly lifted off his feet “It’s so good to see you!” Spruce said, setting him down. 

Pain shot up through his leg and Floyd braced himself against the table but smiled through the pain “it’s good to see you too Spruce”

His older brother looked really good. His hair was no longer cut short and straightened, now it was long and curly; though still purple. He had lost his famous abs and gained quite a bit of weight. 

Spruce was wearing a pair of shorts and an open Hawaiian shirt and Floyd could see the glint of a gold wedding ring on his finger. But most importantly he looked happier than Floyd could ever remember him, he seemed lighter. Like the pressure of BroZone was no longer on his shoulders.

Spruce sat down at the table and Floyd carefully eased himself back into his seat across from him “oh, just so you know, I go by Bruce now.”

“Oh,” Floyd said, "really?”

“Yup” he smiled “I wanted to put the whole boyband thing behind me. I also took Brandy’s name when I got married.”

“That’s cool” Floyd nodded “what is it?”

“Abbot.”

“Bruce Abbot” Floyd said aloud “it suits you.”

“Thanks!” Bruce smiled, “Also, you’re an Uncle.”

“Really?” Floyd sat forward eagerly, he loved kids. “That’s amazing! How many?”

“Three boys” Bruce said “Bruce Jr is five, Troy is three, and then little Cove is six months.”

“Wow” Floyd said “congrats, I’m happy for you.”

“Thanks,” Bruce said, “so what about you? What are you doing here? Last I heard you were doing a solo career.”

Floyd laughed nervously “ah well, you know, I’m just here for work stuff. You know how it is. But what I really want to talk about is my nephews. Tell me all about them!”

Thankfully Bruce took the bait and began rambling on and on about his family, not that Floyd minded. He was enjoying hearing about his brother’s family, even if he would never be able to be in their lives.

How to Ease Shoulder Blade Pain and Regain Comfort?

Shoulder blade pain can feel like a nagging ache or sharp discomfort between the shoulder blades, often caused by poor posture, muscle strain, or even stress. Sitting for long hours, lifting heavy objects incorrectly, or sleeping in an awkward position can lead to tightness and pain in this area, affecting your ability to move freely.

To target shoulder blade pain effectively, I use deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, mobilisation, and post-isometric relaxation (PIR). These techniques release muscle tension, improve circulation, and restore flexibility to the shoulder and upper back, offering relief that many clients feel after just one session.

For long-term results, weekly preventive sessions are essential. These regular treatments help to keep muscles relaxed and reduce the risk of recurring pain. Additionally, I provide simple exercises that you can do at home to strengthen the upper back and maintain proper posture, promoting ongoing comfort.

If shoulder blade pain is limiting your movement, send me a message to book your session and take the first step towards relief and freedom.

The science behind the massage and how it works?

Feeling overwhelmed? You’re not alone. In today’s fast-paced world, chronic stress is a common problem. But what if there was a natural way to combat stress and promote relaxation? Enter Massage Spa Ajman therapy, an ancient practice with surprising scientific backing for its stress-reducing abilities.

The Stress Response: Fight or Flight

When faced with a stressful situation, our bodies go into “fight-or-flight” mode. This primal response releases a surge of hormones, including cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline. These hormones increase heart rate, blood pressure, and muscle tension, preparing us to deal with the threat.

While helpful in the short term, chronic stress keeps these hormones elevated, leading to a cascade of negative health effects, including anxiety, insomnia, and weakened immunity.

Massage to the Rescue: Shifting Gears

Massage Center Ajman therapy offers a powerful counterpoint to the stress response. Here’s how the science breaks down:

The Parasympathetic Switch: Massage Ajman stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, often referred to as the “rest and digest” system. This signals the body to relax, lowering heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate.

Hormonal Harmony: Studies show that Sharjah Spa therapy can significantly reduce cortisol levels, the primary stress hormone. This decrease allows the body to return to a state of homeostasis, promoting feelings of calmness and well-being.

Endorphin Rush: Sharjah Massage Center also triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers and mood elevators. Endorphins have a similar effect to opioids, reducing pain perception and creating a sense of euphoria and relaxation.

Muscle Meltdown: Stress often manifests as muscle tension. Massage techniques like kneading and stroking help to release these physical knots, easing discomfort and promoting relaxation.

The Benefits Beyond Relaxation

The stress-reducing effects of massage extend beyond feelings of calm. Studies have shown that massage therapy can also:

Improve sleep quality

Reduce headaches and chronic pain

Boost the immune system

Increase feelings of happiness and well-being

Taking Charge of Your Well-Being

If you’re looking for a natural way to manage stress and promote relaxation, massage therapy is a powerful tool. By incorporating regular massage sessions into your routine, you can give your body the support it needs to combat stress and achieve optimal well-being. So next time you’re feeling overwhelmed, consider treating yourself to a massage — your body and mind will thank you for it.

Womb Massage: Healing the Feminine

In the world of holistic wellness, womb massage is emerging as a powerful practice that embraces the unique needs and energies of the feminine body. This ancient art of healing and self-care is gaining recognition for its ability to address a wide range of physical and emotional issues that many women face. In this article, we will explore the profound practice of womb massage, its history, techniques, and the transformative power it holds for women seeking to heal and nurture their feminine essence. 서울출장

The Sacred Space of the Womb

The womb is often referred to as the "sacred space" within a woman's body. It is a symbol of creation, life, and the seat of feminine energy. Beyond its role in reproduction, the womb is a powerful center of vitality and intuition. Many cultures and traditions throughout history have recognized the sacred nature of the womb and developed practices to honor and care for this vital organ.  

Womb massage, also known as uterine or abdominal massage, draws from these traditions and aims to restore balance and harmony to the womb and the entire body.
