Relaxation Massage is a generally lighter technique, such as Swedish Massage. Long smooth strokes, pressure that is deeply relaxing but not painful, kneading, rocking, and tapotament (light pummeling) may be employed.
Relaxation massage is all about relaxing. It focuses on giving the client time to recover from the stresses of daily life. This type of massage is great for reducing stress and anxiety levels, for improving circulation of the blood and lymph, assisting in immune system functioning, increasing energy flow, and enhancing tissue elasticity and flexibility.
As with any kind of massage, the benefits of a relaxation massage can last for several days after your treatment.
Benefits of Relaxation Massage include:
- Lowering blood pressure – at least for a while
- Improvements to peripheral circulation
- Improvements to skin tone and appearance
- Improvements to gastrointestinal motility (bowel movements will become more regular)
- Some reduction in muscle tension including the relief of muscle tension headaches
- Improvements to any pain/illnesses associated with stress. This can include providing a gentle boost to the immune system if you undergo regular treatments.
