Different Types of Massage Techniques You Should Experience

 

There are different types of massage offered by individuals and clinics around the world. Experiencing them would help you discover which type works best for your individual body.

In this article, we will discuss 10 of the most popular types of massage performed by therapists and their unique benefits.

 

What is massage therapy?

 

Provided by a registered massage therapist, massage therapy is a hands-on technique that involves therapeutic kneading, manipulation and movement of muscles, tendons and ligaments.

The massage therapist applies varying degrees of pressure with his or her hands to improve blood flow and tension in the soft tissues involved, helping to reduce muscular tension as well as facilitating relaxation of the nervous system for an overall mental and physical relaxation experience.

Certain types of massage that have a more therapeutic purpose are more likely to be performed by an RMT (Registered Massage Therapist), such as sports massage, prenatal massage and deep tissue massage.

Other massages, which typically have a more relaxing purpose in a spa setting, are performed by those who are not registered. However, this is a generalisation and there are certainly exceptions.

 

Benefits of massage therapy:

 

There are many known benefits of massage therapy. However, we will discuss a few of them here in this article and leave the rest to you.

You can find more information online by simply searching for “massage therapy benefits”. Here are some of the known benefits of massage therapy

  • Improve blood flow and facial smoothness
  • Reduce muscle spasms
  • Improving function and mobility
  • Providing an exercise programme to help return to full function
  • Improve sleep quality and mood
  • Reduce stress and tension in the body.

Different types of massage can have different effects on different people. It is good to learn about them and even experience a few to know which works best for your body.

 

The types of massage we are going to look at today are

 

Deep Tissue Massage:

Deep tissue massages are meant to be deep and intense. They are used when you have old chronic muscle tension and pain, or simply when you enjoy and respond well to a deep tissue massage.

This technique is used to break up scar tissue and muscle adhesions. Deep tissue massage helps to pinpoint specific areas and uses broader strokes to target deeper muscles and tissues.

Based on our clinical experience, deep tissue massage is not for everyone. Avoid if you have sensitive joints, inflammation or autoimmune conditions as the pressure can aggravate some conditions.

Sports massage:

Sports massages are designed to treat and assess specific sports-related injuries. These types of massages are more likely to be performed by registered massage therapists with an orthopaedic approach or those who have a passion for sports massage.

As an athlete, it’s important to treat your injuries as they happen and not “wait for them to go away”. Sports massage can both speed up your healing and prevent your injury from becoming chronic and affecting your performance.

Massage therapy is an effective treatment for sports injuries and athletes.
Our registered massage therapist, Harold Keech, has a passion for treating sports injuries using an orthopaedic approach. He has treated and healed many athletes over the years and looks forward to seeing how he can help you.

Prenatal massage:

A prenatal massage is like a regular massage, but with certain restrictions and techniques. Pregnant women often experience swollen hands and feet, joint pain, nerve pain and general tension as the body goes through hormonal changes.

An experienced therapist will be aware of these factors and will tailor the massage to the individual needs of the pregnant woman. In addition, equipment such as a pregnancy pillow and a special treatment table will make the massage experience much more comfortable if you request a prenatal massage.

In addition to massage therapy, chiropractic care during pregnancy would also benefit both mother and baby.

Swedish massage:

If you have had a massage before, you have probably experienced the Swedish massage technique. This technique involves using a sliding lotion or massage oil with broad strokes to improve circulation and work out any tension in the body.

Swedish massage is often used as an introduction or for general relaxation.

Thai massage:

A Thai massage is for those looking for a more active form of massage. Thai massage is beneficial for improving flexibility, circulation and energy levels as the practitioner uses a series of body movements to stretch and twist in different positions.

Reflexology:

Reflexology is the use of firm and specific pressure on the hands, feet and ears. It is believed and researched that certain points on our hands, feet and ears correlate with various functions of our body, particularly our visceral organs.

Reflexology is an alternative treatment that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet.
Studies have shown reflexology to be particularly beneficial for anxiety, reducing fatigue and improving sleep quality.

Hot Stone Massage:

Certainly more of a spa massage experience, body workers can use correctly set temperature stones to help loosen tissues and be able to apply firmer pressure with less discomfort.

This massage is often used in conjunction with a manual massage and is not usually used on its own.

Trigger point massage:

This massage technique involves more targeted and deeper pressure on specific points on the body that happen to hold extra tension, or what some refer to as “muscle knots”.

A muscle knot is a painful or tender spot in a muscle. It feels tight and sore and is often found in the upper back or legs. They’re not usually harmful, but they can be uncomfortable. In rare cases, muscle knots are a sign of long-term (or chronic) pain.

Knots can prevent proper circulation and cause pain and discomfort either when moving a particular muscle or sometimes even when standing still.

Trigger point massage involves less broad strokes and more sustained deep pressure on painful areas until the practitioner feels the muscle knot release under the hands.

The practitioner will usually hold the pressure for up to 30 seconds, or until the patient indicates that the pain has decreased on the pressure scale, and then repeat until the tissue has completely released.

Shiatsu massage:

Dating back hundreds of years, the Chinese combined this type of massage with other healing techniques such as acupuncture and cupping to relieve pain.

Shiatsu massage is based on a psychosocial model that includes emotional, physiological and spiritual well-being. It may combine the use of feet and stretches similar to yoga for pain relief.

Aromatherapy massage:

Any type of massage described above can include aromatherapy, which is the use of pure essential oils on the body that serve different purposes on the nervous system.

Aromatherapy consists of using essential oils and the art of massage therapy as a treatment.

Some essential oils have calming and anxiety-reducing effects, such as lavender, vetiver and neroli. Others can help with sore muscles, such as peppermint and pine.

Aromatherapy massage is a way to enhance your massage experience by adding the aspect of scent and the benefits of pure essential oils.

Medical massage:

A medical massage is a result-oriented massage. It is the most common type given by RMTs as it involves an assessment and clinical evaluation of a specific condition.

This massage is best suited for those who have a specific medical condition or sports injury and are seeking professional help to treat their condition. This massage is less relaxing and more therapeutic.

Couples massage:

A couple’s massage can involve any of the massage techniques described above, but both partners are present at the same time and each has their own practitioner working on them.

This type of massage can encourage a romantic bond between two partners and help them to relax and take their minds off everyday problems.

Couples massages are mostly offered in spas or relaxation-type facilities and are rarely performed by a registered massage therapist.

Lymphatic massage:

Myofascial Lymphatic Drainage, also known as MLD, is a specific massage technique that focuses on the lymphatic vessels that carry toxins that can build up in the body from a cold or an inflammatory episode.

MLD is used to stimulate the movement of lymphatic fluid in the body, helping to remove excess fluid from an area that may be swollen or at risk of infection. This massage involves gently applying pressure to the lymph nodes and staying on the surface for manual drainage.

Lymph is the watery fluid that flows through your lymphatic system. Lymph (pronounced “limf”) helps your lymphatic system support your overall health, from providing nutrients to cells and tissues to protecting your body from foreign invaders such as viruses, bacteria and cancer cells.

MLD massages are excellent for improving the flow of lymph, which can become constricted and blocked as a result of a strong immune response, for example after a bad bout of flu, or an injury such as bursitis or sprained ankle.

In this article, we’ll explore the world of butt massage, including techniques, benefits and tips for getting the most out of your massage experience.

The benefits of butt massage:

Before we dive into the “how to” of butt massage, let’s talk about why you might want to incorporate this technique into your self-care routine.

Pain Relief and Muscle Tension Reduction:

One of the main benefits of butt massage is its ability to relieve pain and reduce muscle tension in the glutes, lower back and hips. By targeting trigger points and knots in the muscles, massage can help release tension, improve flexibility and promote a greater range of motion. This can be particularly beneficial for those suffering from conditions such as sciatica, piriformis syndrome or chronic low back pain.

Improved circulation:

Massage is known for its ability to increase blood flow, and a gluteal massage is no exception. By increasing blood flow to the glutes, massage can help deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. This can be particularly helpful for athletes or those recovering from injury.

Improved muscle tone and appearance:

Let’s face it – who doesn’t want a firmer, more toned bottom? While massage alone won’t give you a complete butt transformation, it can help improve muscle tone and overall appearance by reducing cellulite and promoting lymphatic drainage. Plus, the increased blood flow can give your skin a healthy, radiant glow.

Stress reduction and relaxation:

Like any form of massage, a butt massage can be incredibly relaxing and stress-relieving. By taking the time to focus on your body and release physical and mental tension, you can promote a greater sense of calm and well-being. Also, the glutes are often a repository for emotional stress, so releasing tension in this area can have a profound effect on your overall mood and energy levels.

How to perform a glutes massage:

Ready to try a butt massage? Here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started.

Prepare for the massage:

Before you start your massage, make sure you have a comfortable, private place to relax. You may want to use a massage oil or lotion to reduce friction and make the massage more comfortable. If you’re giving someone else a massage, make sure you communicate openly about pressure preferences and areas to avoid.

Step-by-step guide:

* Start by using gentle, wide strokes over the entire gluteal area using the palms of your hands. This will help to warm up the muscles and promote relaxation.

* Using your fingertips or thumbs, begin to apply deeper pressure to specific areas of tension. You can use circular motions, kneading or static pressure to release knots and trigger points.

* Pay particular attention to the areas where the buttocks meet the lower back and hips as these are common areas of tension.

* Continue the massage for 10-15 minutes, or longer if desired, gradually increasing the pressure as the muscles begin to relax.

* Finish with gentle, soothing strokes to promote relaxation and ease the body out of the massage.

Post-massage care:

After your massage, be sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins and promote healing. You may feel some soreness or tenderness for a few days after your massage, which is normal. Listen to your body and avoid any activities that cause pain or discomfort.

Tips for an effective back massage:

Choosing the right pressure:

Everyone’s pressure preferences are different, so it’s important to communicate openly with your massage partner about what feels good and what doesn’t. If you’re giving yourself a massage, start with light pressure and gradually increase it as your muscles begin to relax.

Find the right position:

Experiment with different positions to find what works best for you. You may prefer to lie face down on a massage table or bed, or you may find it more comfortable to sit or stand. If you are self-massage, you may want to use a foam roller or massage ball to help you reach hard-to-reach areas.

Timing and frequency:

While there’s no hard and fast rule for how often you should get a bum massage, you should aim to incorporate it into your self-care routine at least once a week. You may find that shorter, more frequent sessions work better for you than longer, less frequent ones.

Listen to your body:

Above all, listen to your body and trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right or is causing pain, stop and adjust your technique. Remember that massage should be a relaxing and enjoyable experience, not a source of discomfort or stress.

Safety and precautions:

While butt massage is generally safe for most people, there are a few things to keep in mind to avoid potential risks or complications.

Potential risks and how to avoid them:

* If you have any open wounds, rashes or skin irritations on your buttocks, avoid massage until they have healed.

* If you have a history of blood clots or are currently taking blood thinners, talk to your doctor before receiving a deep tissue massage.

* If you feel any sharp pain, numbness or tingling during the massage, stop immediately and seek medical advice.

If you have a chronic pain condition or are recovering from an injury, it’s always best to seek the advice of a trained massage therapist or physiotherapist. They can help you develop a safe and effective treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and concerns.

Final thoughts:

Butt massage is a simple yet powerful technique that can offer a wide range of benefits to your physical and mental wellbeing. Whether you’re looking to relieve pain, reduce stress or simply enjoy a relaxing self-care experience, incorporating gluteal massage into your routine can be a game changer. So go on, give your glutes some love – your body will thank you!

Массаж ягодиц: Техники и преимущества

Давайте посмотрим правде в глаза, все мы носим в ягодицах много напряжения. Будь то сидение за столом целый день, интенсивные физические нагрузки или просто стрессы повседневной жизни, наши ягодицы могут стать тугими, болезненными и нуждаться в серьезном уходе. Введите массаж ягодиц – технику, которая не только потрясающе приятна на ощупь, но и предлагает множество преимуществ для вашего общего здоровья и самочувствия. В этой статье мы исследуем мир массажа попы, включая техники, преимущества и советы по получению максимального эффекта от массажа.
Преимущества массажа попы:

Прежде чем мы перейдем к рассмотрению того, как делать массаж попы, давайте поговорим о том, почему вы можете захотеть включить эту технику в свой уход за собой.
Облегчение боли и снятие мышечного напряжения:

Одно из главных преимуществ массажа попы – его способность снимать боль и уменьшать мышечное напряжение в ягодицах, нижней части спины и бедрах. Воздействуя на триггерные точки и узлы в мышцах, массаж помогает снять напряжение, улучшить гибкость и увеличить амплитуду движений. Это может быть особенно полезно для тех, кто страдает от таких заболеваний, как ишиас, синдром пириформиса или хронические боли в пояснице. Если вы ищете другие способы облегчения боли в пояснице, ознакомьтесь с нашим руководством по массажу поясницы.
Улучшение кровообращения:

Массаж известен своей способностью усиливать кровоток, и массаж ягодиц не является исключением. Усиливая приток крови к ягодицам, массаж помогает доставить кислород и питательные вещества к мышцам, способствуя их заживлению и уменьшая воспаление. Это может быть особенно полезно для спортсменов или тех, кто восстанавливается после травм.
Улучшение мышечного тонуса и внешнего вида:

Давайте посмотрим правде в глаза – кто не хочет иметь более упругую и подтянутую попу? Хотя массаж сам по себе не даст вам полного преображения попы, он может помочь улучшить мышечный тонус и общий внешний вид, уменьшая целлюлит и способствуя лимфодренажу. Кроме того, усиленный приток крови придаст вашей коже здоровое и сияющее сияние.
Снятие стресса и расслабление:

Как и любой другой вид массажа, массаж попы может быть невероятно расслабляющим и снимающим стресс. Уделяя время своему телу и снимая физическое и психическое напряжение, вы можете способствовать большему ощущению спокойствия и благополучия. Кроме того, ягодицы часто являются хранилищем эмоционального стресса, поэтому снятие напряжения в этой области может оказать глубокое воздействие на ваше общее настроение и уровень энергии.
Как делать массаж ягодиц:

Готовы попробовать массаж ягодиц? Вот пошаговое руководство, которое поможет вам начать.
Подготовьтесь к массажу:

Прежде чем приступить к массажу, убедитесь, что у вас есть удобное и уединенное место, где вы можете расслабиться. Возможно, вы захотите использовать массажное масло или лосьон, чтобы уменьшить трение и сделать массаж более комфортным. Если вы делаете массаж кому-то другому, открыто расскажите о предпочтениях в надавливании и зонах, которые следует избегать.
Пошаговое руководство:

* Начните с мягких, широких поглаживаний всей ягодичной области ладонями. Это поможет разогреть мышцы и способствует расслаблению.

* Кончиками пальцев или большими пальцами начните оказывать более глубокое давление на определенные зоны напряжения. Вы можете использовать круговые движения, разминание или статическое давление, чтобы освободить узлы и триггерные точки.

* Уделите особое внимание местам соприкосновения ягодиц с нижней частью спины и бедрами, так как именно в этих областях часто возникает напряжение.

* Продолжайте массаж в течение 10-15 минут или дольше по желанию, постепенно усиливая давление по мере того, как мышцы начинают расслабляться.

* Завершите массаж мягкими, успокаивающими поглаживаниями, чтобы способствовать расслаблению и выходу из состояния покоя.

Уход после массажа:

После массажа обязательно пейте много воды, чтобы вывести токсины и способствовать заживлению. В течение нескольких дней после массажа вы можете ощущать некоторую болезненность или нежность, и это нормально. Прислушивайтесь к своему организму и избегайте любых действий, которые вызывают боль или дискомфорт.
Советы по эффективному массажу спины:

Молодая женщина делает массаж спины в спа-салоне Чтобы получить максимальную пользу от массажа попы, следуйте этим советам:
Выбирайте правильное давление:

У каждого человека свои предпочтения в давлении, поэтому важно открыто говорить с партнером по массажу о том, что ему приятно, а что нет. Если вы делаете массаж себе, начните с легкого давления и постепенно усиливайте его, когда мышцы начнут расслабляться.
Найдите правильную позицию:

Поэкспериментируйте с различными позами, чтобы найти то, что подходит именно вам. Возможно, вы предпочитаете лежать лицом вниз на массажном столе или кровати, а может быть, вам удобнее сидеть или стоять. Если вы делаете самомассаж, возможно, вам захочется воспользоваться поролоновым валиком или массажным мячом, которые помогут вам добраться до труднодоступных мест.
Время и частота:

Хотя не существует жесткого и быстрого правила, как часто следует делать массаж живота, вы должны стремиться включать его в свою программу ухода за собой хотя бы раз в неделю. Возможно, вы обнаружите, что более короткие и частые сеансы подходят вам больше, чем более длительные и редкие.

Прислушивайтесь к своему телу:

Безопасность и меры предосторожности:

Хотя массаж попы в целом безопасен для большинства людей, есть несколько моментов, о которых следует помнить, чтобы избежать потенциальных рисков или осложнений.
Потенциальные риски и как их избежать:

* Если у вас есть открытые раны, сыпь или раздражение кожи на ягодицах, воздержитесь от массажа, пока они не заживут.

* Если у вас в анамнезе есть тромбы или вы принимаете препараты для разжижения крови, проконсультируйтесь с врачом, прежде чем приступать к массажу глубоких тканей.

* Если во время массажа вы почувствовали резкую боль, онемение или покалывание, немедленно прекратите массаж и обратитесь к врачу.

Если у вас хронические боли или вы восстанавливаетесь после травмы, всегда лучше обратиться за советом к квалифицированному массажисту или физиотерапевту. Они помогут вам разработать безопасный и эффективный план лечения, учитывающий ваши конкретные потребности и проблемы.
Заключительные мысли:

Массаж ягодиц – это простая, но мощная техника, которая может предложить широкий спектр преимуществ для вашего физического и психического благополучия. Если вы хотите облегчить боль, снять стресс или просто насладиться расслабляющим уходом за собой, включение ягодичного массажа в ваш распорядок дня может изменить ситуацию. Так что давайте, подарите своим ягодицам немного любви – ваше тело будет вам благодарно!

15 Popular Massage Techniques for Every Issue

Massage therapy is a popular healing technique that has been used for thousands of years, dating back to 3000 BC. The Hindus believed that massage therapy could cure diseases as it was part of their sacred natural healing system. It has since become popular worldwide, but it is more than a trend, as massage therapy has scientifically proven health benefits.

 

There are more than 50 massage techniques, each with its own unique characteristics and benefits. This article will discuss the 15 most popular ones and the different problems they help to solve. But before we do, let’s take a look at what massage therapy is and the significant benefits it offers.

 

What is Massage Therapy?

 

Massage therapy involves using a combination of rubbing, stroking, pressure, and sometimes, heat to manipulate the skin, tendons, ligaments and tissues in the body. The massage therapist can alternate between gentle and strong pressure during a massage to help ease tension and pain in different parts of the body. As stated earlier, multiple massage techniques focus on other body parts and have different healing methods. Plus, massage therapy offers long-term health benefits, making it an integral part of complementary medicine.

 

Major Benefits of Massage Therapy:

 

Some of the health benefits of massage therapy, according to recent scientific studies, are highlighted below:

 

Pain management
Boosts immune system function
Provides relief for carpal tunnel syndrome
Anxiety and stress management
Improves sleep quality
Decreases inflammation
Eases chronic tension headache

 

Popular massage techniques for every problem.

 

1. Sports massage:

 

Sports massage is a technique used for people with physically demanding hobbies or lifestyles, such as athletes or fitness trainers. This massage technique is generally used to release muscular tension, reduce pain and mobilise soft tissues, as sports massage therapists consider the effects of different activities on parts of the body.

 

Athletes and active people can use sports massage as part of their training programme to improve performance and reduce the risk of injury. Post-operative and physiotherapy patients can also benefit from the healing effects of sports massage.

 

Despite the name, this massage technique is suitable for everyone, whether you are a professional athlete or lead a sedentary lifestyle. Sports massage is essential for improving recovery and injury rehabilitation and can be applied at different times – pre-event, post-event or as part of the training programme.

 

This massage technique can be tailored to the challenges and needs of the individual, allowing the massage therapist to identify and treat specific physical problems. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is a common problem faced by athletes and physically active people and is caused by a number of different factors.

 

Sports massage helps to treat this problem by removing waste products and increasing blood and oxygen flow to the body.

 

2. Deep Tissue:

 

Deep tissue massage is a popular massage technique that focuses on controlling the deep layers of muscle and connective tissue. Most people choose this massage technique to treat musculoskeletal problems, chronic pain or sports injuries, as it involves breaking up scar tissue that forms after an injury or surgery.

 

During a deep tissue massage, the massage therapist uses deep and slow strokes to release tension from the deep layers of muscle, and this type of massage is suitable for persistently tight areas such as the neck, shoulders and back.

 

Deep tissue massage helps to increase joint mobility, improve injury recovery, reduce pain and improve posture and flexibility.

 

The difference between deep tissue massage and other techniques is that deep tissue massage applies more pressure to areas of high tension. In most cases, ice can be applied to the area after the massage to help with tenderness and stiffness.

 

Also, deep tissue massage is not suitable for everyone, especially people with blood clotting disorders, nerve damage, skin conditions, increased risk of injury and the elderly.

 

3. Swedish massage:

 

Swedish massage is a full-body massage technique used to release tension and relax the whole body. This technique is best for those who have a lot of tension, are sensitive to touch and are new to massage therapy, as it focuses on stimulating nerve endings and improving circulation in superficial muscle layers. Swedish massage is one of the most popular massage therapy techniques and uses different massage techniques such as kneading, rubbing, stroking, gliding and tapping. In addition, Swedish massage therapists use long strokes to mimic the body’s natural circulation, removing toxins and increasing blood and oxygen flow.

 

Swedish massage therapy combines body repair and relaxation in one, which is one of the reasons it is so popular. This massage technique has several benefits such as reducing muscle pain and stiffness, increasing flexibility, relieving constipation, improving sleep quality and strengthening the immune system. Swedish massage therapists also apply moisturisers and aromatic oils to your skin during the massage session, and the session is usually done on a massage table, where you’ll need to be undressed except for your underwear.

 

4. Hot stone massage:

 

The hot stone massage technique is derived from the Swedish massage technique and involves the use of hot stones to perform the massage procedure. Contrary to what most people believe, the hot stones will not burn or scratch the skin, as the stones used are not random types of stone. Basalt, a type of volcanic rock, is often used for this massage technique as it retains heat when heated to up to 150 degrees Fahrenheit.

 

During the massage process, the massage therapist will place different sizes of stones on the part of the body they are working on, and some of the places where stones are typically placed include the chest, spine, stomach, feet, hands and face.

 

Swedish massage therapists use a combination of kneading, circular motions, tapping, long strokes and vibration during the massage session to release muscle tension and stimulate the body. The stones are usually warmed over a fire before being placed on the body, but are not heated to the point where they can burn the skin. The hot stone massage technique is commonly used to treat soft tissue and damaged muscles, and some of the benefits of this technique include improved immunity, improved sleep, pain relief, increased flexibility, stress reduction and improved circulation.

 

Unlike the typical heat compress, the hot stones retain the heat longer, allowing it to penetrate deeper into the muscle. Furthermore, this massage technique is open to everyone as there are no age restrictions.

 

5. Aromatherapy massage:

 

The aromatherapy massage technique incorporates the use of essential oils into the massage. It combines gentle and firm pressure while using different blends of essential oils. Aromatherapy massage helps to improve mood, manage pain and induce relaxation.

 

Massage therapists usually apply the diluted essential oils along with lotion to the skin during the massage, and it is claimed that these essential oils help to enhance the benefits of the different massage techniques. In addition, some of the essential oils used for this technique include orange, chamomile, ginger, lemon, lavender, tea tree, peppermint, cedar, eucalyptus, bergamot and others. Some therapists also use CBD oils in their therapy (if the client agrees) to reduce inflammation and soothe the muscles.

 

Some massage therapists have their clients gently inhale these oils through a diffuser, as they are thought to have healing properties. This massage technique is usually added to a typical massage session and helps clients with stress and anxiety relief, pain relief, arthritis symptoms, improved sleep quality and improved mood.

 

Some of the types of massage that aromatherapy can be incorporated into include prenatal, Swedish, deep tissue and hot stone massage. In addition, the massage therapist will select the essential oil that works best with the specific needs of the client, as each has its own unique properties and benefits.

 

6. Shiatsu massage:

 

Shiatsu massage is a Japanese massage technique that involves tapping, soothing, kneading, stretching and pressing. This non-invasive technique is usually performed through comfortable clothing, without any oils, and can be used to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. Massage therapists use it to treat chronic conditions such as insomnia, anxiety, headaches, digestive problems, joint pain and fatigue.

 

Shiatsu also stimulates the circulatory and lymphatic systems and helps with posture and flexibility.
Despite the Japanese heritage of this massage technique, Shiatsu uses similar styles to other massage techniques such as lymphatic drainage, physiotherapy and osteopathy.

 

This massage technique works on the whole body, but massage therapists can focus on areas that need more attention. People with stressful jobs and active lifestyles may need regular shiatsu massage sessions, but for others, one session a month will help them maintain their balance and flexibility. Also, this massage technique is usually performed with the client fully clothed and usually lasts about 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the problem.

 

7. Pilates Abdominal Massage:

 

Pilates abdominal massage helps to massage and release tension in the internal organs and spine. This massage technique focuses on the abdominal muscles such as the rectus abdominis, transversus abdominis and obliques.

 

Pilates massage therapists typically use different methods to treat muscle tension and tightness in the abdominal area, and this technique helps to reduce pain and increase flexibility. Kneading, skin rolling, wringing and deep strokes are also used to release tension in the abdominal area.

 

A series of Pilates massage exercises are also performed on the mat, chair or reformer to massage the abdomen and release tension, and Pilates abdominal massages are good for toning and strengthening the abdominal and back muscles.

 

8. Thai massage:

 

Originating in India, Thai massage has been used for over 2000 years and this ancient massage practice combines acupressure and Indian Ayurvedic principles with assisted yoga poses for pain relief. Rather than lying on a massage table (as with other massage techniques), you lie fully clothed in loose-fitting clothing on a mat while the Thai massage therapist uses various techniques such as compression, stretching and acupressure to release tension in your body. This massage technique also helps to improve flexibility, posture, energy levels and circulation.

 

Thai massage, sometimes referred to as assisted yoga, focuses on improving the flow of energy throughout the body and can be used to relieve headaches, joint pain and back pain. This massage technique also helps to relieve anxiety and reduce fatigue. Traditional Thai massage therapists use their hands, elbows, forearms and feet to release muscle tension. Because this massage technique involves active movement and participation throughout the massage session, it is not the best option for everyone, especially people with injuries or heart conditions.

 

Some massage therapists also use traction during the massage session, such as pulling fingers, cracking knuckles, walking on someone’s back and moving the client’s body through various basic yoga poses.

 

9. Oncology massage:

 

Oncology massage therapy is a specialised massage technique that helps cancer patients cope with their cancer experience and improve their quality of life.

Scientific literature reviews have shown that this massage technique helps to improve sleep and immune function in cancer patients, while reducing the pain, nausea and fatigue typically associated with cancer. Oncology massage therapists meet people at different stages of cancer and provide tailored massage treatments to support and comfort them through the process. In addition, most oncology massage treatments are adapted to the different cancer-related problems, whether physical, emotional or psychosocial.

 

Trained oncology massage therapists take into account patients’ individual goals and the side effects of cancer treatments when providing massage therapy to patients. Some cancer patients seek oncology massage to help relieve a variety of cancer-related symptoms. However, some studies show that cancer and cancer treatments can put the patient at risk of complications when receiving oncology massage.

 

Therefore, the massage therapist should take appropriate precautions and training and be aware of the client’s cancer history, both past and present, before treating them.

 

10. Prenatal massage:

 

Prenatal massage therapy is a safe way for pregnant women to get massages and this technique helps to reduce stress, muscle tension and pain associated with pregnancy. Many pregnant women experience different types of pain such as neck pain, back pain, joint pain and others and this massage technique helps to relieve the tension in the muscle to reduce the pain. Prenatal massage is good for circulation and helps to reduce the risk of joint swelling during pregnancy. You can have a prenatal massage at any stage of your pregnancy, but it is advisable not to have one during the first trimester to reduce the risk of miscarriage.

 

Pregnant women also need to get their doctor’s permission before having a prenatal massage.

 

Prenatal massages help to remove tissue waste and toxins from the body and improve the general mood of the expectant mother. You need to tell the massage therapist that you are pregnant so that they can tailor the session to suit you. Prenatal massage uses gentle pressure and the therapist focuses on areas such as the legs, hips and lower back. Other benefits of this massage technique include reducing insomnia, anxiety and headaches.

 

11. Trigger point massage:

 

Trigger point massage is used to release trigger points that cause pain in various parts of the body, most often as a result of injury, surgery, inactivity, overexertion or poor posture. Trigger points can often cause headaches, muscle strain and even injury. This massage technique is best for people with injuries and chronic pain as it targets the knots and points in the muscle to reduce pain. Trigger point massage goes deep into the muscle layer to release the build-up of tension and involves applying varying levels of pressure to the affected area.

 

During trigger point massage, you may experience both relief and discomfort as the massage therapist focuses on releasing the knots in your body. This massage technique can be used on the whole body, or the therapist can focus on specific areas of tension that need to be released. You do not need to be fully undressed during a trigger point massage session and they usually last between 10 minutes and an hour, depending on the muscle strain. Some benefits of this massage technique include improved flexibility, healthy muscle maintenance, enhanced relaxation and reduced pain.

 

12. Reflexology massage:

 

Reflexology massage involves applying gentle and firm pressure to various pressure points on the hands, ears and feet. This massage technique is based on the theory that different body systems and organs are connected to the hands, feet and ears. If you don’t like being touched on different parts of your body, this is a good massage technique to try. Reflexology massage therapists are called reflexologists and they believe that there are various health benefits to applying pressure to these specific parts of the body.

 

This massage technique is quite different from a regular foot massage, as it uses pressure point massage methods on specific areas of the feet, hands and ears to restore energy flow to different parts of the body. Reflexology can help with a variety of health issues such as headaches, stomach problems or sinus problems, and it helps with the circulation of blood, oxygen and nutrients. You can also use this massage technique to aid relaxation, improve mood, reduce pain and rid your body of various toxins.

 

While there are some theories that reflexology can help boost the immune system and improve digestion, there is no conclusive scientific study to prove that it is a useful treatment for any medical condition.

 

13. Chair massage:

 

Chair massages usually focus on the neck, shoulders, arms, hand, head and back and are ideal for people who want a quick massage. The chair massage technique uses manual guidance to release muscle tension and uses a uniquely designed chair to support the client during the massage. Clients need to straddle the chair to give the massage therapist access to their neck and back. Chair massage therapists usually use light or medium pressure as this technique helps to reduce stress and promote relaxation.

 

Also, this massage technique usually lasts about 30 minutes and clients remain fully clothed throughout the session.

 

Chair massages are readily available in a variety of places such as salons, spas, trade shows, festivals and shopping malls. In addition, this massage technique is good for typically active people as it helps to improve circulation, improve sleep quality, support immune health, improve flexibility and lower blood pressure.

 

14. Petrissage massage:

 

Petrissage massage technique involves applying deep pressure to the tissues and muscles and is used to treat muscle spasms and relieve pressure points. This technique combines squeezing, kneading and stretching movements to loosen muscle fibres and release tension. Massage therapists use this technique to activate the lymphatic and vascular systems, which in turn improves blood circulation and facilitates the removal of toxins from the body. This technique is also used to break up adhesions that occur after surgery or injury.

 

Petrissage massage increases recovery, improves circulation and increases physical flexibility. It also reduces delayed onset muscle soreness and improves muscle function.

This massage technique should not be used over inflamed areas, new scar tissue, damaged skin or after a new injury. It is also important to allow sufficient recovery time after surgery or injury to avoid further damage to the area.

 

15. Tapotement:

 

The tapotement massage technique involves a rhythmic tapping or patting motion, usually done with the outside of the hand or fingertips. This technique helps to stimulate superficial muscle tissue and can be used as a pre-workout or competition massage technique. The benefits of this massage technique range from increased blood circulation to improved recovery and muscle relaxation. Most athletes use this massage technique to help them recover faster from physical exertion and to loosen their muscles before an event. In addition, prolonged tapotement can help reduce anxiety and relieve muscle tension.
