MTM (Meridians Tissue Manipulation) Therapy at Hygeia [Review]
My very first MTM (Meridians Tissue Manipulation) Therapy with Hygeia! :)
Have you heard of MTM Therapy? Here's what it is all about! It's actually a form of remedial massage that uses buffalo horn tools to enable the therapist to go deeper to unlock the knots in your muscles, providing more effective relief for chronic pain, muscle stiffness and fibromyalgia.
Without further ado, let me show you more on the MTM Back Therapy which I've tried out, kindly sponsored by Hygeia!
After having a consultation with the TCM specialist, I informed them of my past concerns with my old back injury and stiff shoulders problems, I was then led to the massage therapy room :)
Lockers were provided for you to store your belongings. There was also a hair dryer for you to style your hair after the massage session. (my utmost concern after a massage session would be my messy and unkempt hair hahahha..that's why I spotted the hairdryer & huge mirror in place)
And i'm all ready to start the MTM Therapy :)
First up, my therapist started off with the Moxa Pain Relief Essence featured in this picture above. Really amazing! She will apply the essence and put her palms over it, then there will be this warm sensation which helps to relief the chronic pain you might have at the affected areas. Here, she was applying pressure on my shoulders and back. Much needed relief for my aching muscles! :D
(More on this pain relief essence in my upcoming post!)
Next up, she also used this Meditrina Ageless Herbal Cream throughout the MTM back therapy session. The MTM therapy session is not like your conventional massage sessions, it actually helps to improve the blood circulation throughout your body working on the different Meridian points.
For me, it was rather painful when she worked on the points near my lower back since I suffered an injury on my tailbone previously. Do expect that there might be slight bruises on the back areas where there is poorer blood circulation for your body. It's pretty normal and will go away in a few days.
The therapist will also keep checking with you if she is exerting too much force or not, so not to worry! :D
Overall, it was quite a good experience which helps to improve your entire well being!
Thank you Herine & the therapists at Hygeia for explaining to me so much on the whole massage process. I've learnt so much more on how I should take care of my body.
Most importantly, after the MTM therapy, I felt that my shoulders were not as stiff and it definitely did help to provide effective relief for my chronic pain problems such as my old lower back injury :) Definitely worth a try! Let's put in more effort in maintaining and taking care of our personal health!
