Relaxing Back Massage

(45-minute session)

     

At some point of their lives, three out of four people will have problems with their backs. The commonest triggers are lifting a heavy weight, a sudden jerky movement, or just regulary resisting the pull of gravity like standing all day or working in front of a computer.Once the initial damage is done, almost anything (including stress) can make the muscles seize up and bring on the agony.

Remember that the spine carries nerve fibers that effects the entire body and so the pleasure of a back massage spreads from top to toe.The back also has more muscles than any other part of of the body and does most of the work of keeping us upright throughout our waking hours.Therefore it needs all the help it can get.

Fortunately the back is not only the easiest part of the body to massage, being such a large, smooth area, it also responds instantly to being rubbed the right way. With  the use of various classic Swedish Massage techniques and a soothing massage oil, the lower back, upper back, shoulders, and neck  is treated. For this treatment the client is required to undress  to expose the whole back area.

Benefits of a back massage:

  • Improves skin elasticity
  • Improves circulation
  • Boost immunity
  • Improve muscle suppleness
  • Enable deeper, more effective respiration
  • Improve neural communicaton and relax the nervous system preventing muscle spasms caused by anxiety

Always consult your doctor before having back massage if you have had surgery or are currently undergoing treatment for any kind of back complaint.
