Types of massage

Massage has a positive effect on the circulatory and nervous systems and reduces the symptoms of exercise, such as muscle tension, neck stiffness and back pain. Massages are also performed to combat specific ailments caused by posture defects, weight gain, and to reduce problems associated with cellulite and skin resistance. Below are the most popular types of massage, which can be found in the offer of beauty salons and spa.

Partial massages

Partial massages cover one part of the body, and thus the treatment itself is much shorter than the usual classic massage, and cheaper.
The most common massages:

• Head
• Neck
• Face
• Selected part of the spine
• Hand
• Legs

Facial massage tightens the skin, reduces tension and has a positive effect on reducing wrinkles. It is often chosen by people who are struggling with the problem of laxity and lack of elasticity of the skin. It also effectively copes with shallow wrinkles and bumps. In turn, partial hand and foot massage is recommended for people who walk a lot or spend most of the day in front of a computer. They are also a nice addition to other treatments, which is why they are readily chosen by clients who sign up for facial cleansing or pedicures, for example.

Classic massages

Classical massage is often the chosen form of massage by people who do not struggle with specific ailments, but dream of relaxing. Classic massage is performed with the use of balms and oils that facilitate the procedure and moisturize and strengthen the skin. It is performed in three stages:

1. Preparation and cleansing of the skin
2. Application of massage oil
3. Massage

Classic massages usually last from 30 to 90 minutes and can be performed with essential oils (such as orange, rose, lemon and lavender), shea butter or coconut oil. Used oils and balms have a positive effect on the condition of the skin and well-being. The main massage methods used during classic massage sessions include rubbing, kneading and stroking. The relaxing effect of classical massage is enhanced by relaxing music, which affects all the senses.

Relaxation massages

Relaxing massage is sometimes confused with the classic, but it is certainly less intense, and its effect is primarily relaxing.
Relaxation massages help with problems related to:

• Tension pain
• concentration
• eye pain
• insomnia
• Apathy
• fatigue

Relaxing massage is recommended for people who are struggling with anxiety and depression, because they are a great addition to therapy or treatment with drugs. The most popular relaxing massage is, for example, chocolate massage, which has very positive associations, smells good and has a positive effect on the whole body. Another treatment that is extremely popular is the herbal massage stamp. Specially selected composition of herbs calms the nervous system and affects all the senses. No less often in beauty salons and SPA hot stone massages are performed, which have a stimulating effect on the lymphatic and circulatory systems. The warmth of the stones relaxes the muscles and helps relieve stress.

Sports massages

Sports massage helps to get rid of ailments associated with intense physical exertion. Regular sports massages increase physical abilities, reduce overload, accelerate the regeneration of the body after exercise and help get rid of pain after exercise, such as pain. Sports massage should be used regularly by people who do sports professionally or professionally. Sporadically, athletes who practice this discipline at the amateur level also appear in the massage parlor, as sports massage significantly accelerates recovery from muscle, joint or ligament injuries.

Depending on the purpose of the massage and its performance (for example, before or after training), sports massage can calm the muscles and help them recover or mobilize them to increased activity. The athlete’s body is exposed to injuries and overloads, which is why sports massage should become a permanent element of the regeneration plan.

Massage for pregnant women

Prenatal massages help reduce the stress and tension associated with expecting a baby. They have a positive effect on the mental state of the young mother, and thus make the pregnancy more comfortable. Pregnant women struggle with back pain, skin deterioration and edema. These are typical ailments that can be less troublesome due to prenatal massages. Massage for pregnant women:

• It reduces muscle tension
• Nourishes the skin and reduces the risk of stretch marks
• Reduces swelling

Gentle massage is performed in a safe position, using relaxing, nourishing oils.

Cellulite is a common ailment that affects women of all ages. So-called. Orange peel is formed for various reasons, but one of the elements that can effectively fight cellulite is regular anti-cellulite massages. This massage can be performed using professional equipment, such as a roller-vacuum apparatus or manually.
