BACK AND NECK PAIN??
Types of Massages That Can Help:
Massage therapy commonly involves using the hands to manipulate soft tissues, such as the muscles and tendons, to increase blood circulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote feelings of improved wellbeing.
For people who have chronic neck pain and stiffness, it is common to seek massage therapy from a massage therapist, physical therapist, or other qualified health professional.
Two of the more common types of massage to address neck pain include:
✨ SWEDISH MASSAGE is the most common type in Western culture. It mostly focuses on long, steady strokes, which are typically performed in the direction of blood flow to the heart.
Kneading and friction motions may also be included. One of the main goals of Swedish massage is to promote relaxation throughout the entire body.
✨DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE typically uses deeper strokes and friction to work on deeper layers of the muscles and connective tissues.
Also known as connective tissue massage, there are a wide variety of definitions for deep tissue massage, depending on the therapist’s techniques and philosophies.
Compared to Swedish massage, a deep tissue massage commonly focuses more on an area of chronic pain.
