Physical Health Benefits

As you may have guessed, the massage is the main part of massage therapy. In a session, a licensed masseuse will work throughout your entire body section-by-section addressing pain, soreness, or flexibility concerns. Areas of focus are often the neck & shoulders – where most people hold their tension – and the back that suffers from manual labor & desk work.

They will then massage various muscle groups to stimulate blood flow to tense, sore, or weaker muscles, which help them to repair, recover, and relax more easily to make you stronger & more flexible. This makes it beneficial for those recovering from surgery or sports injuries as well as those who have chronic pain from work. The masseuse can also stimulate your lymph nodes to help detoxify your system and strengthen your immune system as a result.

History of Swedish Massage

Swedish Massage was developed by Peter Henrik Ling (1776-1839), a  Swedish physician and athlete who combined Chinese medical massage techniques with sports medicine to create a technique for decreasing muscle soreness, increasing flexibility and promoting general health.  Strokes used in Swedish include long and gliding movements generally applied with an oil or cream as a lubricant, kneading, vibration, tapping and friction.  Massage therapists also incorporate stretching to elongate the musculature, and joint mobilization or open and soften the joints.
Swedish Massage is one of the most common and effective massage therapy modalities.  A wonderful combination of light to firm gliding strokes, integrated with stretching and ranging of the joints, it is a process that promotes total relaxation and muscle tension release.

Massage Therapy: A Secret to Better Physical & Mental Health

Do you suffer from chronic pain, headaches, anxiety, or any other discomfort on a regular basis? If so, you’re probably looking for any and all solutions to help you. While its true that there are medications available to treat these problems, nobody wants to rely on drugs for relief. Thankfully, there exists an all-natural treatment that not only addresses physical problems, but helps to treat mental strain as well.

Massage therapy is a treatment that aims to provide a holistic approach to a better, more comfortable everyday life. Each session addresses physical pain or other problems while providing a relaxing experience that is therapeutic from brain to body.

3 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT MASSAGE THERAPY

Massage therapy encompasses a wide variety of techniques and practices. In fact, there are over 80 different types available. This therapy is simply defined as the manual manipulation of soft tissues like muscle, tendons, connective tissue, and ligaments to enhance wellbeing.

COMMON FORMS OF MASSAGE THERAPY

Many terms are used to market the variety of massage therapy techniques available. With all of the terms, it can be tough to understand just what you are being offered. You should first understand that there are two broad categories for this service: relaxation and clinical. Both categories encompass several styles designed to relieve stress and improve health.

RELAXATION METHODS FOR MASSAGE THERAPY

Relaxation massages use gentle techniques to promote wellbeing. The goal of this type of therapy is to reduce stress, relax muscles, reduce pain, and move body fluids to nourish your cells. Some common techniques that fall under the category of relaxation include swedish, prenatal, hot stone, and deep tissue. Massage therapists create a relaxing environment so you can let go and enjoy whatever technique you choose. Many massages will actually include a combination of methods, all working to achieve the same goal.

CLINICAL STYLES OF MASSAGE THERAPY

Some people seek massage therapy to assist them in rehabilitating from an injury or illness. Clinical techniques include rolfing, NeuroMuscular therapy, myofascial release, Thai, orthopedic, and sports massage. These types of massage therapy focus on a therapeutic goal, such as releasing muscle spasms or stretching specific muscles that were affected by injury. Clinical massages also focus on specific muscle manipulation and address other body systems such as the lymphatic,

Most Awkward Things About Getting A Massage

🤷😁

Massages are awesome! They're not just a great way to relax, but there are also so many other benefits, too. They help with anxiety and stress, work out knots in your muscles, help with chronic pain, and get your circulation pumping. Massages are also used to help in reducing cancer symptoms, as well as assisting in keeping negative side effects of cancer treatments under control.

But with all great things, come the occasional downsides, too. One such downside when getting a massage? The awkwardness. Yes, massages do have some awkwardness twisted up in all the good stuff, too. If you've ever gotten a massage, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Here are the seven most awkward things of the awkward.

1Small talk

You don't have to be socially awkward to think that small talk is the worst. Picture this: you're laying naked on a massage table for, sometimes up to an hour, and as much as you want to shut up, you feel this bizarre need to make small talk, or, even worse, you get a masseuse who isn't picking up on the hints you're putting down about wanting complete silence. It's hard to relax when you're so focused on what dumb question you'll ask next even though you don't care what the answer is. It's enough to make your skin crawl.

Drooling and snoring

Another side effect of dozing off during a massage is waking yourself up from your own loud snoring and realizing you've drooled all over the bed. It's not a pretty picture… and now you have resituate where you head is positioned along with lying to your masseuse that you're "getting a cold or something,

Why Massage Feels So Good 🤔🤗

Getting a massage feels amazing. In fact, you begin feeling better before the therapist even enters the room.

You’re in a dark, quiet space surrounded by calming music and soothing scents. The cool sheets feel smooth on your bare skin. And once your massage starts, all that tied up tension and stress begins to get released through the power of touch. Why does it feel so good? Find out what’s happening inside your body and brain that makes this touch therapy so satisfying.

Your Body and Mind Are Able to Function Better
We often think we can feel the tension literally being worked out of our muscles, and that’s pretty close to what’s happening when we get a massage. The pressure from the therapist’s hand movements comes into play again, improving your circulation by moving blood more efficiently and releasing cell waste—like worn-out proteins—faster than your body does naturally.

And your mind gets a bit of a clean sweep as well. Researchers have found that just a 15-minute rubdown can help you to think more clearly and improve your alertness.

Your Brain Releases Feel-Good Chemicals and Pain Diminishes
The therapist’s touch causes an immediate reaction in your brain. As soon as your skin’s nerve cells feel pressure, they signal the brain to release feel-good chemicals called endorphins, which boost your mood and give you a natural high. As a result, stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline begin to decrease and the overall effect is one of euphoria and bliss.

If you have real aches or pains, the morphine-like effect from the endorphins will help diminish them by blocking pain signals from the brain. And if your muscles are sore after a rigorous workout, a good rubdown will actually help them heal faster. Researchers found that massage decreases the inflammation caused by exercise and increases the occurrence of cell repair.

Swedish massage

Swedish massage is a gentle type of full-body massage that’s ideal for people who:

are new to massage

have a lot of tension

are sensitive to touch

It can help release muscle knots, and it’s also a good choice for when you want to fully relax during a massage.

For this massage, you’ll remove your clothes, though you may choose to keep your underwear on. You’ll be covered with a sheet while lying on the massage table. The massage therapist will move the sheet to uncover areas that they are actively working on.

The massage therapist will use a combination of:

kneading

long, flowing strokes in the direction of the heart

deep circular motions

vibration and tapping

passive joint movement techniques

Usually a Swedish massage will last for 60–90 minutes.

What are muscle knots?

Muscles knots are hard, sensitive areas of muscles that tighten and contract even when the muscle is at rest. These tense muscle fibers can cause pain in other parts of the body when touched. They’re also known as trigger points.

Muscle knots can be caused by:

a sedentary lifestyle

overusing or injuring your muscles

poor posture

Dehydration, unhealthy eating habits, and stress and anxiety may also contribute to muscle knots.

Muscle knots can occur anywhere in the body, but they’re usually found in your back, shoulders, and neck. They often show up in your gluteal muscles, too.

Muscles knots can cause aching sensations and pain in your muscles and joints. When you touch a muscle knot, it may feel swollen, tense, or bumpy. It could also feel tight and contracted, even when you’re trying to relax, and they’re often sensitive to the touch. The affected area may even become inflamed or swollen.

Muscle knots can cause symptoms in areas outside of the muscles, including:

headaches

toothaches

earaches

You may also experience stress, anxiety, and depression, and have difficulty sleeping.

Increases Flexibility & Range of Motion

Swedish Massage can elongate the muscles, open and lubricate the joints and decrease swelling, all of which can ease movement and increase flexibility. By incorporating stretching techniques, Swedish style massages can also increase a more fluid range of motion.

 Increases Overall Energy

Increased circulation and decreased stress can lead to a general boost of energy. 

Improve Posture

While postural imbalances have many sources, including overworked muscles due to repetitive strain, overcompensating muscles to ease stress on overworked muscles, prolonged sitting, or injury, Swedish Massage helps to ease the muscular holding that underlies postural imbalance.
