WHAT ONLY SPECIALISTS KNOW ABOUT MASSAGE.

As if everyone knows what a massage is. I dare say that the majority of readers know only the β€œtip of the iceberg” about the effect of massage on the body.

The "visible to the eye" part of the information is the mechanical action of the massage. Everything is clear here. Carrying out massage techniques, the massage therapist rubs, kneads, squeezes, stretches, compresses, shifts, etc. tissue of the patient's body.
These actions enhance the circulation of lymph, blood, interstitial fluid, remove sloughing cells of the epidermis, etc. The mechanical effect during massage eliminates congestion in the body, enhances metabolism and skin respiration in the massaged area of ​​the body.

And now I will reveal to you a "secret" known only to specialists. The mechanical effect of massage is not the main thing. There are also so-called reflex and humoral effects. And here the most interesting begins.

First of all, massage has an effect on the central and autonomic nervous system. At the initial stage of the massage, irritation of the receptors embedded in the skin, muscles, tendons, articular bags, ligaments and vessel walls occurs. Then the impulses caused by this irritation are transmitted to the central nervous system and reach the corresponding areas of the cerebral cortex. There, a general complex reaction occurs, causing functional changes in the body.

This mechanism was described in detail in the works of the Russian physiologist I.P. Pavlov. Any stimulation of the nerve receptors is transformed into a nerve signal, which runs through the nerve fibers, as if through wires, to the central nervous system and from there, through other wires, is brought to the working organ, transforming, in turn, into a specific process of the cells of this organ.

What does this mean? Yes, with the help of massage techniques, you can control the functions of the organs of the human body. Carrying out one or another massage technique, the specialist causes a completely definite and predictable reaction of the patient's body. And with the right influence, the result will be beneficial.

The second "secret" of massage. The fact is that under the influence of massage, biologically active substances (tissue hormones) are formed in the skin and enter the blood, with the help of which vascular reactions, transmission of nerve impulses and other processes occur.

Under the influence of massage, histamine and histamine-like substances are rapidly formed, they are carried by the blood and lymph throughout the body and have a beneficial effect on blood vessels, internal organs and systems. So, histamine, acting on the adrenal glands, causes an increased release of adrenaline.

Acetylcholine acts as an active mediator in the transmission of a nerve signal from one nerve cell to another, which creates favorable conditions for the activity of skeletal muscles.
In addition, acetylcholine promotes the expansion of small arteries and improves breathing. It is also believed to be a local hormone in many tissues.

In other words, with the help of massage we use our "internal pharmacy". Massage helps us to cope with health problems without drugs, using our body's own reserves.

Quadratus lumborum syndrome

The cause of square muscle syndrome can be acute injuries such as heavy lifting, twisting of the torso when lifting.

It is very typical in this case that this syndrome develops in people who spend most of their time at the computer, since the square muscle of the lower back is one of several muscles that are overloaded during normal sitting.

WHY WHAT MASSAGE IS FOR: A BRIEF GUIDE

Hiromassage

What's this? A manipulation technique in which the massage therapist focuses on kneading the muscles of the body, face, limbs.

Effect. The skin above the muscles is cleared of h***y scales, stagnant fat in the sebaceous glands, which improves skin respiration, accelerates blood stasis, increases muscle tone, reduces skin flabbiness, and accelerates the removal of toxins from the body. After a course of massage, the muscles become stronger, more resilient, work faster.

Who needs. The technique is used for connective tissue scars, adhesions, myositis, radiculitis, cellulitis to improve nutrition and muscle tone, reduce nervous excitation, and tighten facial muscles.

Drainage techniques

What's this? A manipulation technique in which the massage therapist focuses on the cardiovascular system - from large vessels to capillaries (blood and lymph), with this technique blood and lymph are pumped.

Effect. When using this massage, all stagnation in the vessels is removed, the water balance of the skin and its drainage are improved - the ability to remove toxins and carbon dioxide. Thanks to this, the cells of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles begin to heal.

Who needs. It is recommended for those who suffer from rosacea, redness, muscle spasms, to reduce swelling after facial plastic surgery.

Neurophysiological massage

What's this? The specialist focuses on the deep muscles located around the spine - the trigger zone of many clamps.

Effect. Through the peripheral skin nerve endings (receptors) there is a direct effect on the central nervous system, which begins to give signals to stress hormones - until their supply for today is depleted. The result is relaxation.

Who needs. It is used for general relaxation, with headaches, apathy, impaired potency due to nervousness, angina pectoris, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue syndrome, and insomnia.

Myostructural massage

What's this? A technique in which the massage therapist focuses on the joints, tendons, bones and the deepest muscles of the arms and legs.

Effect. Muscles relax, spasms and pain go away, stagnation in tissues, metabolism improves.

Who needs. Anyone who is recovering from joint diseases (i.e. in a non-acute stage).

Anti-stress massage

What's this? A massage technique in which the massage therapist uses gentle pressure, as well as washing, washing (hydromassage), moisturizers, aromatic oils. As a rule, much attention is paid to the face - it is in this area that there are most stress points and the neck, which becomes numb at the end of the working day.

Effect. The main effect goes through the nervous system: gentle movements and aromatherapy in combination perfectly relieve stress.

Who needs. The main indication is chronic fatigue syndrome.

Anticellulite massage

What's this? The technique is a combination of kneading and drainage techniques.

Effect. Fibrous tissue is destroyed, the release and removal of toxins from fat cells is stimulated.

Who needs. Those who wear "orange peel" on their hips.

Anti-aging massage

What's this? A technique that does not stretch the skin (after the fourth decade it becomes sensitive to stretching). At the same time, the masseur focuses on the oval of the face, facial wrinkles, neck and other problem areas.

Effect. In massaged areas, blood circulation improves. As a result, the skin is tightened (lifting), and as cells are released from toxins, it begins to look younger.

Who is useful. Anyone over 45.
