The Body Keeps the Score is an AMAZING book. Not sure it's the best for everyone, given it's deep technical and scientific nature though. it's definitely not an easy read, but well worth it IMHO.
Thom Hartmann has a trauma technique that incorporates bilateral muscle movement from the left and right side because it allows all parts of the brain to integrate the trauma. I assume massage from both the left and right side does the same thing and Hartmann indicates this to be so with other therapeutic techniques like EFT. See the book "Walking Away the Blues" by Hartmann for more details on this type of somatic experience trauma therapy. The book you referenced called "The Body Keeps the Score" is the bible for trauma therapy and I have a copy as well. See also Levine "Waking the Tiger." (I've been shot at too much hence the interest in the subject.)
I would love to learn about the types of knots and different ways to release them. Especially lower back knots.
I have a good example of what you are talking about. I received massage during a time of emotional stress. Right at the end of the massage they went through a very fast movement up and down the spine. As I was scheduling and paying at the front desk, I suddenly started crying uncontrollably. Didn't feel sad and it was very surprising to me, although I was assured it was not unusual.
My husband has learned my shoulder knots veeery well over the years (anniversary 14 coming up, so we’ve traded a LOT of ‘shoulder work’ as we call it in that time)! I don’t have any personal trauma history, but I carry all my tension in my neck and shoulders. Even so, sometimes my mood just won’t tolerate a deeper massage (or conversely, it’s the only contact that feels good on a given day).
All of these will work over clothing, though obviously there’s minimal glide. I’d love to see some ideas for ‘diagnosing’ types of knots and which approaches might be better for different ones!
