Massage - Finding the Perfect Type For You

A good massage is more than just a back rub

A good massage is more than just a back rub. It should manipulate your muscles and body tissue to relieve pain and remove harmful toxins. A really good treatment should hurt in a good way of course. When you have had a good massage you will hurt so good'!

There is a difference in the type of massage you will get, so make sure you know what you want. If your therapist asks if you want Swedish or Deep Tissue, you need to know the difference.

A Swedish massage is an effective, but gentle back rub. Now I am not talking just a light sweep across your back. No, a Swedish treatment will feel wonderful and is perfect for relaxation. In fact, this type is great if you are tense and need to relax. Many people find themselves drifting off to sleep on the table during this treatment. After a Swedish massage you will sleep wonderfully and be very relaxed.

A deep tissue massage on the other hand is strong and forceful. The purpose of this type of treatment is to manipulate the muscles and tissues so they will release toxins and flatten out. Many times we get stubborn knots in our back or neck. A deep tissue treatment can effectively remove these knots. The therapist uses heavy pressure and a lot of strength to manipulate your muscles during this type of massage. In fact, the therapist gets quite a workout from this treatment! They may use the palms of their hands, elbow, and the forearm. A skilled therapist will find your trouble spots and work on them until they are gone. It will be somewhat painful and if it gets too intense just let your therapist know. After a deep tissue treatment, you will feel sore for a few days. However, you muscles will be free from knot and tightness.

One important thing to remember with any type of massage, you need to drink plenty of water! The process releases toxins into your body and you need to drink plenty of water to flush them out. If you don't drink enough water two things can happen. First of all, you may get sick to your stomach if you don't flush the toxins out. The second thing is the toxins will settle right back into the muscles and the next day the knots and pain will be back.

A good massage can help you feel better and be healthier. In fact, many people are turning to this treatment as a way to overcome many health issues. Neck pain, back pain, and even sinus and digestive issues can be helped with this treatment. It is a great way to relax and feel better. Doesn't a massage sound great right now?
