Take care - you may be taking on more than their emotions if you are not grounded properly. I'll leave it to those with better teaching backgrounds to let you know some techniques which may work for you. Karen O.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 1999 Report Share Posted May 5, 1999 Whenever I am on an active (usually it's *the* active) trigger point, I get weepy and unsettled until I can come off of it (so I wait for them to tell me it's easing and am happy when it happens quickly). I start to feel weepy BEFORE they tell me that I'm in the precise spot that duplicates whatever their pain is so I don't think I'm talking myself into it after the fact.. do they have emotion stored in their pain that I'm getting? In general, I feel very well-grounded while I am doing massage; and confess, at the same time, that the rest of my life is not feeling so well-grounded. I do feel fully present while I am working though. I noticed it first with my tendenitis violinist client and then with a " deltoid bursitis " client and again with an SCM tp person. It doesn't happen on latent, satellite or secondary TPs, just the major ones. It doesn't thrill me. Is the weepy feeling coming from the client or from me? Just asking for ideas. If it is coming from the client, suggestions for ways to block it? or disperse it? Ideas about what is happening? Marta marta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
