Types Of Spa Massages And Their Benefits


 
Fitness
Work load pressure and life style demands put a lot of burden on a human body and render it stiff and restless. Such condition also leads to sleeplessness in a person resulting into lethargy and a state of befuddlement. A relaxed massage can infuse life at such times and rejuvenate the body back in to action with newly pumped energy. So where does one get such massage? Well, a spa would be the most appropriate place where you can hope to avail soul pleasing massages meted out by expert hands. A spa massage is a potent remedy for a weary body to spring back to life hence it is advised that you get one whenever your body and mind aches for it.

There are several types of massages offered by spas around the world and each one is designed to give varying levels of relaxation and health benefits to the body. Here we will chronicle some of them and discuss the benefits they are likely to offer.

Swedish massage:This is the most commonly applied massage technique in spas and also the most sought after. A new recipient is usually administered with this massage and it combines five different movements such as kneading, sliding, rhythmic tapping, shaking and cross fiber to considerably reduce stiffness in joints and pain. This massage also induces increased circulation of blood to the muscles.

Deep tissue massage: This one is effectively used for removing stress and muscle tension resulting from sports activities. This massage helps relieve pain by rearranging the deep layers of body muscles and its connective tissues. This is more of a focused type and uses movements similar to the Swedish massage techniques.

Hot Stone Massage: Smooth and hot stones are used in this massage to apply pressure and heat to the body. The heat from the stones goes deep in to the muscles of the one receiving the massage and release stress. Stones can also be applied strategically on different parts of the body by the therapist to bring out specific results. Apart from relaxing the body this massage also relives pain if there is any. This is very useful for conditions such a back pain, ache, muscle tension, anxiety and stress.

Aroma Therapy Massage: This one uses different type of plant oil concentrates mixed with massage lotions or oils to offer relief to various muscle aches. The type of oil used in a massage can vary with specific needs such as muscle soreness and relaxation. It is believed that the massage enables the body skin to absorb the oils used in the therapy and in turn they work on the blood pressure levels, breathing, immune system and stress.

Reflexology: This type does not use any oil in the massage and a special technique is used to apply pressure on the hands and feet. The special methods applied in this massage are believed to relive tension, pain and ache in all parts of the body.

Some spas fuse all these massages and use them effectively on the recipients for specific needs. One thing common about all these massages are that they offer effective relaxation for body tension. It is also well known that a relaxed body will also house a healthy mind.
