Massage therapy benefits people of all ages. Swedish massage is generally used for relaxation and is the most common form of massage.
How does it work?
In this world of chaos, stress, anxiety, and depression, massages are becoming the inevitable solutions which could pave your way for a relief, peace and tension-free life. Swedish massage techniques follow very basic or original massage methods.
The main objective of Swedish massage is to help your body inhale more oxygen and detoxify. Through the removal of toxic substances, the Swedish massage aims to give the body a fresh new start. It increases your blood circulation by using connective tissues and muscles. This way, it minimizes the tension and releases residual lactic acid and other tissue juices to provide the body relief from all pain.
Frequently asked questions:
What do I do during a massage treatment?
Make yourself comfortable. If your therapist wants you to adjust your position, she/he will either move you or will ask you to move what is needed. Otherwise, change your position anytime to make yourself more comfortable. Many people close their eyes and relax completely during a session; others prefer to talk. It’s up to you. It is your massage, and whatever feels natural to you is the best way to relax. Do not hesitate to ask questions at any time.
How often should I get a massage?
“Some is better than none.” What does that mean? Well, it varies from person to person. If you are just looking for some occasional relaxation, then a session every 3-6 weeks may be fine for you. However, if you are looking to address a specific condition, then it is recommended to go more frequently at first and then slowly taper down to a maintenance schedule. Sometimes more frequent 30-minute sessions can be effective until your goals are met and a maintenance schedule is in place. Frequency of sessions should be discussed with your massage therapist after your treatment when he/she has a better hands-on understanding of your particular muscular issues.
How will I feel after my massage treatment?
Most people feel very relaxed. Some experience a significant decrease or freedom from long-term aches and pains. Many feel a little slowed down for a short period and then notice an increase of energy, heightened awareness and increased productivity which can last for days.
If you received a deep massage, you may be slightly sore the next day – much like a good workout at the gym. Sometimes a hot shower or a soak in the tub can ease this soreness. After your session, you should increase your water intake a bit. Just a glass or two more than normal is usually fine. This helps keep your body’s tissues hydrated and healthy.
