A massage is a general term for the stroking, kneading, warming and pressing of skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. There are many types of massage, each with a different origin and a different aim – some focus on soothing muscle pain; others are used to improve specific physical conditions; while others help boost your energy levels.
Some forms of massage involve heat, such as the hot stone massage offered at many spas. During this type of massage, heated stones are placed on various parts of your body while the massage therapist applies Swedish massage techniques and gentle pressure. Often, essential oils (diluted before application) are added for their therapeutic scent.
Massage can be a good complement to a treatment plan for certain medical conditions, such as arthritis or sports injuries. For instance, it can increase blood flow which helps nourish and oxygenate tissues. And it can ease tension and promote flexibility by loosening tight muscles.
It can also aid in the healing process by stimulating the lymphatic system and boosting the immune system. And it can encourage the body to get rid of waste products, such as toxins, carbon dioxide and excess water.
When getting a professional massage, it’s important to communicate with the massage therapist if you have any questions or concerns. In addition, you should try a few therapists until you find one who is comfortable working with your particular needs.
