This week on The Open Wide Podcast, Jenny sits down with her own massage therapist, Sarah Shawhan of Chant Wellness, to unpack everything that actually happens during a massage — and it's a lot more than you think. They dig into Reiki and the human biofield, craniosacral therapy and cerebrospinal fluid, neuromuscular therapy and the pain-tension cycle, and how something as simple as your handwriting or the way you walk into a room can tell a trained therapist exactly where you're holding stress.
By the end of this episode, you'll understand why you feel \"massage drunk\" afterward, why lymphatic drainage matters more than you'd guess, and how your body communicates in a language that has nothing to do with words. If you've ever wondered what your massage therapist is really doing with their hands (and their instincts), this conversation will change how you think about your next appointment. Share it with the friend who's overdue for a massage, and subscribe so you never miss a Tuesday drop.
