Maya Bleiler, Massage Therapist, Vancouver, BC

Maya Bleiler, BHK, RMT Bachelor of Human Kinetics Registered Massage Therapist Craniosacral & Visceral Therapy Human anatomy, movement, and healing have always interested Maya. It started during her youth as an obsession with playing sports and on the sidelines where she could be found taping sprained ankles and bandaging the blisters of her teammates. Over time, Maya’s education came to reflect these interests: a degree in Human Kinetics, Exercise Physiology from the University of British Columbia in 1996 and a Diploma of Massage Therapy from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 1997. As a Registered Massage Therapist, Maya was guided by some wonderful mentors into her current practice of Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, Nerve & brain manipulation. She was intrigued by the effectiveness of these techniques on her own injuries and health and felt compelled to learn more about them. Over the years she has taken many many courses in these areas mostly from the Upledger Institute, Barral Institute, and Chikly Institute and continues to be a lifelong student. Maya has developed a way of working with the body that uses specific assessment methods in order to locate and unravel key bound structures and then to apply supportive techniques to integrate the changes with the rest of the body. The techniques focus on the connective tissues that surround or are invested in the brain, spinal cord, nerves, organs, blood vessels, bones and muscles. There is more freedom of movement, improved circulation, less irritability and generally more ease. This allows the function of the body systems to improve and the body can begin to heal itself. The range of patients Maya often works with reflect the experiences in her personal life… newborns & children, brain & spine trauma, and people who want to feel better able to perform in sports, work, or the day to day adventures of life. Maya’s practice has evolved over the past 24 years, influenced by her professional experience as a former clinic instructor at WCCMT, student mentor, and former clinic owner of Yaletown Massage Therapy. However, she always returns to her most profound teachers, her patients, who inspire the curiosity and compassion essential to this work. Maya believes everybody has a story to tell and she looks forward to hearing yours.

Registered massage therapists help with whiplash is an injury that you experience, that most people experience, from car accidents. You can also have it from a sports injury.The technical term for whiplash in the medical literature is whiplash associated disorders, or WAD, and that’s what we’re going to refer to it as today. WAD happens when your head is thrown about, usually forward and sometimes backwards and side to side and treatment from a local RMT Registered Massage Therapist .

It can be any other direction but that’s the general idea. And it’s an acceleration, deacceleration injury when the neck structures have to respond to that force that comes into you.The types of symptoms that you might expect after a car accident and a whiplash injury would be anywhere from moderate to no symptoms at all. And the moderate symptoms generally consist of stiffness in the neck, some mild achiness, maybe some mild headache, and you might feel that you’re more sensitive to cold than you normally are.

The more severe symptoms that people might feel are ringing in the ears, dizziness, loss of memory and pain coming down their arms. With whiplash injuries, there are many factors that go into deciding how much pain you’re going to be in.The force of the impact is one, and in some cases – not all cases – people have what they call low velocity injuries, where it’s a slow-moving, low-impact, but the patient experiences a lot of pain afterwards.

And a lot of patients have really bad injuries and have no pain afterwards, and so what’s the difference? The difference is the intangible factors that come into deciding how much pain you have. One of them – or a couple of them – are social factors and often seeing a local RMT Registered Massage Therapist .

So, how your social life, your home life, your work life is going. If you’re experiencing any anxiety and depression at the time. Also, general health will affect how much pain you experience, so the better your health the less impact it’s going to have, the worse your health you’re going to experience more pain.Women also tend to experience more pain after car accidents and whiplash injuries, and it’s generally thought it’s the ligament laxity or the joints are a little bit looser in women, they tend to be more flexible, so when impact comes they move more and tend to be injured more during car accidents.If you have any further questions about whiplash injuries, you can go see your local rehabilitation therapist. Those therapists are either your massage therapist, your physiotherapist or your chiropractor.
