*Therapeutic massage improves circulation of the blood and lowers blood pressure. *Massage also acts as a detoxification system by propelling toxic waste products out of the cells through the lymphatic system. *Massage improves muscle tone and prevents muscular atrophy resulting from inactivity or illness.
Getting a massage provides relaxation, relieves tension associated with the daily stresses of busy lifestyles and most importantly, it helps one maintain overall good health and balance, both physically and mentally. Massage acts directly on your muscles and stimulates the nervous system to instruct muscles to relax even more. Massage relieves most muscle tightness.
A tense or painful muscle is one which is often chronically contracted. In an acute situation such as recent injury, the muscle can be in actual spasm. In either case the flow of blood to the muscle, and the nutrient and oxygen supply to the cells of the muscle and related nerves, are severely decreased. Following that, the contracted muscle will build up lactic acid, perpetuating fatigue. Massage helps to remove the lactic acid and other metabolic waste from the cells and reverse this process of the vicious cycle of pain-spasm-pain.
Therapeutic Massage is a gentle therapy that can relieve pain, reduce stress and promote health.

Types of Massage Therapies

There are many massage styles which are beneficial, depending upon the individual’s needs and preferences.

They include:

Swedish Massage: this is the basic “relaxation” style of bodywork, which uses long strokes, squeezing and kneading. The Swedish practitioner helps to improve circulation by working to loosen or relax the superficial layers of muscle. This type of massage is particularly useful for muscles which are already sore from stress or a tough workout, as it is often more gentle than other styles.

Deep Tissue/Trigger Point/Sports Massage:
this form of massage works on a deeper level of musculature or connective tissue. This style fits more with the “no pain, no gain” philosophy. The therapist uses slow, hard strokes and deep, sustained finger pressure to work deeply into the
contracted muscles, fascia and tendons. This technique increases flexibility, encourages muscles to work at their fullest capacity, and speeds up the healing process by reducing swelling following an injury. It is especially indicated for athletes and “week-end warriors” who suffer from tight or sore muscles.

Reflexology: reflexology works on the assumption that parts of the feet (as well as parts of the ears and hands) correspond to other parts of the body’s anatomy. In other words, stress or illness in a certain part of the body may show up as a painful or sensitive area on a specific area of the foot. Reflexologists apply pressure to the side, top or bottom of the feet to help reduce dysfunction in other parts of the body.
