Abstract: |
The author offers insights on conscious breathing during massage therapy practice. Topics discussed include the importance of inhalation and exhalation on the autonomic nervous system, the mechanics of breathing, and the mindful sensing of the temperature and movement of air in the nostrils to lower stress. Also noted is the enhancement of lymph movement and immune system function when every conscious breath is taken. |
