Massage is the a basic instinct that people used as a natural remedies. This basis need to touch is comparable to our innate fight or flight instinct. Health practitioners believe that massage has powerful healing properties no matter how soft or deep.
Advancement in massage techniques came over time! Several massage movements are available but we listed only the most popular four in our office.
SWEDISH MASSAGE uses several strokes to smooth tension and heal soreness. The common strokes or moevments are: effleurage or stroking; petrissage or muscle lifting and grabbing; friction or use of fingers and thumbs working the deep thick muscles; tapotement or chopping tapping or beating movements; and vibration for finger pressed firmly on the muscles, then the area is stimulated quickly for several seconds. The effleurage and tapoement strokes are the most popular.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE works deeper than a Swedish massage, working past the couple of layers that Swedish massage does. The slow deep strokes and pressure from the deep muscle techniques work across the grain of the muscle. therapist use their fingers thumbs and arms to apply the pressure to help release the muscle tension and spasm from injuries.
SPORTS MASSAGE has helped athletes, weekend sports enthusiast by using a Swedish and/or Deep tissue massage. These strokes are alternated to help the athlete improve his focus, circulation and warm up of his muscles before a game or run. After the competition the benefits of toxin removal of the muscles helps him recover quickly.
NEUROMUSCULAR MASSAGE is a form of deep tissue massage that is applied to individual specific muscle group's muscles. It is used to increase blood flow, reduce pain and release pressure on nerves caused by injuries to muscles and other soft tissue. Neuromuscular massage helps release trigger points, and muscular adhesions (areas which form due to micro traumas) and can also "refer" pain to other parts of the body. Relieving a tense adhesion or trigger point area in your back, for example, could help ease pain in your neck, shoulders, low back, etc. This technique is especially beneficial when used with spinal manipulation and adjunct forms of physical therapy.
