Today, it’s more important than ever for hands-on practitioners to know how to release emotions that have been locked up. Our physical and mental states are both altered by how we feel. When you’re happy, you feel light and easy to move around, and they might look like they want to laugh, run, sing, or dance. Even when you feel bad, your body reacts. Our blood pressure increases, our muscles tighten, and we slump forward.
Many emotional disorders are caused by negative feelings that get stuck in the body’s tissues. The body is designed to make feelings to move through it. You’re more likely to laugh when you hear a joke. The feeling it gives you eventually leaves your body through your vocal cords and diaphragm. As an analogy, if you stub your toe, you may get angry and yell or hit a pillow with your fists instantly. These are normal ways to let your feelings move through your body and out of it.
It’s interesting to look at the life cycles of positive and negative emotions side by side. Our bodies can easily switch between emotions like happiness, humor, and a sense of power. We accept and enjoy their presence so they can move freely through our bodies and finish their life cycle.
People prefer to feel good than to feel bad. We feel very strongly when we are sad, angry, resentful, lonely, or in pain. Because it hurts, we sometimes try to hide those parts of ourselves, so the pain doesn’t get worse or spread. When we try to fight an emotion and the way it makes our bodies work, we often create imbalances. Because of resistance, emotion can get locked up in the body’s tissues and eventually become a physical illness.
Finding Emotions That Are Stuck:
As Deep Tissue Massage practitioners in London, we see a lot of cases where traditional treatment hasn’t worked to solve common problems. Most of the time, the problem comes from emotions that can’t get out. When parts of the body are so tense that the movement of the craniosacral system, the flow of fluids, and the flow of energy are all limited, we can tell that emotion is going on.
These patterns of low flow show that the body is out of balance and needs help to fix it. Putting your hands there is often enough to start a natural process that lets the emotion out. With more Craniosacral work, the emotion may be able to go out of the body the way it was meant to.
We might want to know what emotion caused the problem just because we want to know. Sometimes, a feeling will definitely appear or make itself known. But we’re looking for how to get rid of the feeling, not what it is. We are not psychoanalysts; instead, we work with the body. The goal of our London Deep Tissue Massage is to assist the body’s natural ability to heal itself so that it can return to being healthy and functioning properly.
Common powerful effects include:
- Better physical performance.
- Less pain.

Clients may react differently when they let go of painful or harmful emotions during our London Deep tissue massage. They might start to cry, ball up, scream, shake, laugh out loud, or even hit the massage table.
Emotional release often gives the client important flashes of understanding. According to us our customers might learn a lot about their condition, what caused it, and what it means to them as individuals. If they know this information, it will help them a lot as they go through life.
