What is massage?

Massage is the rubbing of the body's soft tissues, such as muscles. Massage can relieve tension and pain, improve blood circulation and promote relaxation. Massage therapists usually use their hands, but they may also use their elbows or feet. There are at least 80 types of massage. Some of them are gentle, some are very active and intense.

For example, Swedish massage is very gentle and is often used to relax, improve blood circulation, and relieve muscle tension. The therapist uses long, gliding strokes as well as kneading and tapping techniques on the top layer of muscle towards the heart. They may also gently move the joints to improve range of motion.

Deep tissue massage is more active and intense. It is used in the treatment of long-term muscle strain. The masseur applies slow touches (fingers and elbows), using strong pressure on the deep tissues of muscles that are not involved in Swedish massage.

You can give yourself a massage to relax after work or study, or to put yourself in a cheerful state in the morning. You can easily massage your heels, arms or neck while doing other activities or relaxing. Self-massage may be more effective if you are wearing comfortable clothing and sitting or lying in a comfortable position. Use oil or lotion to apply to skin.

Massage of painful areas is less gentle and can cause discomfort. The therapist applies firm pressure to tight muscles that have been worn or injured until the muscle relaxes completely. Tell your massage therapist if you feel pain during the massage.

Some people feel that massage really helps because touch is healing. Touch also conveys care.

Description of therapeutic massage

Therapeutic massage is one of the oldest known medical practitioners. The first mentions of massage were found in ancient Chinese medical texts written more than 4,000 years ago. Massage has been promoted in Western healthcare practice since the time of Hippocrates.

A variety of massage methods have a beneficial effect on the muscular, skeletal, circulatory, lymphatic, nervous and other systems of the body. The core philosophy of therapeutic massage includes the concept of “activating the body’s self-healing abilities.”

The touch method is the main means of massage therapy, while massage can be described various types techniques performed. Since massage typically involves the application of contact with some degree of pressure and movement, the massage therapist must be able to determine optimal quantity and movement and pressure in relation to to a certain person. The sensory method allows the massage therapist to receive useful information using your hands about the person's body, such as the location of an area of muscle tension or other soft tissue problems.

In practice, many massage therapists use more than one method in their work, often combining them. An effective massage therapist will discover each person's needs and then use techniques that best meet those needs.

Some types of massage therapy

Swedish massage is the most commonly used form of therapeutic massage. It uses a system of long glides, kneading and friction techniques on the superficial layers of muscle, usually in the direction of blood flow to the heart, and sometimes in combination with active and passive joint movements. Swedish massage is used for general relaxation, it improves circulation and range of motion, and relieves muscle tension.

Deep massage used to relieve chronic patterns of muscle tension using slow strokes, direct pressure, or friction directed across the muscle fibers. A deep massage with high pressure is used, and on deeper layers of muscles, unlike the Swedish one, and is effective in relieving chronic muscle tension.

Sports massage uses techniques similar to Swedish and deep massage, but specially modified to suit specific requirements.

Neuromuscular massage is a form of deep massage that is applied to individual muscles. It is used primarily to release trigger points (intense knots of muscle tension) and increase blood flow. Often used to relieve pain. Trigger acupressure and myotherapy are some of its varieties.

Acupressure involves applying finger pressure to specific points along energy pathways or “meridians” to release blocked energy. Redistribution of energy flow relieves tension and restores the functions of organs and muscles in the body. Shiatsu is a Japanese form of acupressure that applies these principles.

Organization of massage therapy sessions

Massage therapy sessions can be carried out either at home or in a specialized salon. The frequency of massage sessions can vary widely as needed based on the condition being treated. The cost of a massage varies depending on geographical location, experience of the massage therapist and duration of the massage.

Before the procedure, as a rule, the massage therapist collects information - this is the reason for receiving massage therapy, physical state, medical history and more. During the procedure, the massage therapist can use oil or cream, which is quickly absorbed into the skin.

Massage therapy can also be recommended for children with allergies, stress, arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, limb injuries, rehabilitation after surgery, chronic and temporary pain, circulatory disorders, depression, indigestion, headaches, sleep problems, myofascial pain, sports injuries, as well as problems associated with dysfunction of the mandibular joint.

Precautionary measures

Massage is a relatively safe procedure; however, it should not be used if a person has one of the following medical conditions:

Massage should not be used locally on affected areas with eczema, goiter (thyroid dysfunction) and open skin lesions. Massage can be used on areas of the body that are not affected by these conditions. The decision to use massage should be based on whether it may cause harm. In such cases, the doctor’s recommendations are more than appropriate before the massage.

7. Massage therapy for Meniere's syndrome

In traditional Chinese medicine, Meniere's syndrome is considered a type of vertigo. Cause of this disease has not been definitively established. Most patients note that the main cause of its symptoms is mental overstrain or a feeling of extreme fatigue. Among the symptoms, the most characteristic are sudden attacks dizziness. According to traditional Chinese medicine, massotherapy certain areas of the body helps improve blood circulation and vital energy and protects the brain, giving it the opportunity to rest and recover well. For this reason, such methods have a beneficial effect in the treatment of Meniere's syndrome.

Acupuncture points and their order during massage: yin-tang, mei-yao, si-zhu-kun, tong-tzu-liao, temple, shang-guan, er-men, qu-bin and cheng-qi (Fig. 9-20).

Regular massage.

Massage the points in the above order. The main attention should be paid to the points of Tongzi-Liao, temple, Shan-Guan and Er-Men. This means that the number of repetitions at these points compared to the rest should be doubled.

During the massage, keep your eyes slightly closed, lightly clench your fists, putting thumb on the middle one and extending the index finger to influence the points with slow clockwise rotations. The mind should be focused and the finger movements should be slow. The force should be applied in just the right amount, not making the movement too light, but also not applying more pressure than necessary. If you do it without due effort, the effect will be unnoticeable, but if you overdo it, you can cause a feeling of discomfort. With the exception of the yin-tang point, which is massaged with the index or middle finger, all others are massaged simultaneously with both hands. After completing the procedure, use the index or middle fingers of both hands to lightly rub several times from the Tong Zi Liao points through the temples and the Shan Guan points to the Er Men. When, having done everything necessary, you finally open your eyes, they will be much brighter, your head will be clearer, and you will feel much more comfortable.

Massage for symptoms of Meniere's syndrome.

If symptoms of Meniere's syndrome occur, begin by massaging the above key pressure points, especially the Tung Tzu Liao and temples. The more you massage them, the better. If the attack of the disease is serious, you will not be able to perform the massage yourself, so seek help from others, explaining to them what and how to do. Whatever the circumstances, the points and force of impact must be precise and properly controlled.

It should be especially noted that massage should be used at the first manifestations of symptoms of the disease. At severe form Appropriate sedatives should be used.

It can be added that if in addition to this you use a massage of the head, eyes and nose and at the same time perform suitable physical exercise, properly organize rest, then in this way you can prevent the recurrence of Meniere's syndrome.
