Miracle Massage Therapy: The Business of Offering Hope
by Linda Sechrist
Performing deep tissue massage for 10 years took a toll on Maggie Wang’s body. Just when the owner of Miracle Massage Therapy in Naples began questioning how she could possibly continue with her massage career and what she could possibly do to alleviate the pain and renew her low energy levels, she got a phone call from an old friend living in Canada.
“My friend had a successful massage business that offered different therapies, facials and herbal treatments. She wanted to know how my business was doing. I told her what I was dealing with and she said, ‘If you really want to help your clients and yourself, you need to come to Canada and see the device that I am using.’ I flew there and stayed for a week. After the first treatment with the DDS Bio-Electric therapy, I felt less pain and had more energy. She gave me two more treatments and I was pain free. I realized that I wanted to offer it to my clients, too,” says Maggie, who later completed DDS Bio-Electric therapy training and became certified.
A combination of the DDS training and years of personal experience working with many clients led Maggie to create “Life Energy Balance Therapy (LEB), which combines Chinese Medicinal Principles and modern Western reflexology, in addition to bioelectrical technology. A device is used to generate a low electrical current at a very low frequency which travels through the clinician’s body from foot to fingers and into the body of the individual, stimulating and opening meridians, clearing trigger points, restoring the flow of chi and improving blood circulation. “When the meridians are blocked, qi can’t flow, and the body can’t heal itself,” advises Maggie.
After observing the many benefits and excellent results that Maggie and her clients got with DDS therapy, her husband, Brent, quit his job and decided to join her in the business. “The results were many times better than those from acupuncture,” says Brent, who explains that in order to get trained in DDS therapy, his first challenge was to translate the DDS manual, written in Chinese, into English. “I took the certification training so that I could explain to people how the therapy works. The machine was developed in China and has been used there for at least 15 years. My wife is from China. Her first language is Mandarin, so she didn’t have the same challenges,” advises Brent.
Formerly an aggressive snowboarder and avid mountain biker, Brent sustained numerous upper body injuries while enjoying these sports. “I had limited neck movement. To turn my neck to the left, I had to turn my whole upper body. After three DDS treatments, I could move my neck without moving my body. Another good example of what this therapy can do is a 55-year old client whose business was painting the trim in high-end homes. He was experiencing excruciating pain when he came to see Maggie. He had four treatments and was pain free,” says Brent.
Maggie and Brent agree that it is personally rewarding and very refreshing to see what LEB therapy does for individuals. It frequently offers hope where there has been none. Miracle Massage Therapy also offers other modalities such as cupping therapy, gua sha and meridian brush as well as Swedish and deep tissue massage.
Miracle Massage Therapy is located in the Pebblebrooke Shopping center, 15205 Collier Blvd., Ste. 206, in Naples. For more information, call 239-331-7987 or visit MiracleMassageTherapyLLC.org.
