Therapeutic massage stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation, endocrine secretions, is detoxifying and soothes the pain of migraine sufferers, helps reduce muscle cramps and increase joint mobility. Also, depending on the technique used, it has the following benefits:

on muscles

– increases muscular endurance through blood flow

– increases the speed of recovery from atrophy, injury and trauma

– accelerates the recovery of tired muscle by improving vascular exchanges with nutrient supply

fresh and removal of residues

– increases muscle performance by improving conductivity, excitability and contractibility,

– increases or decreases tone and excitability, depending on the technique;

on tendons, fascia and aponeuroses

– activates the local circulation promoting increased suppleness and consistency

– help fight blood and lymph stasis

– stimulates sensitive nerve formations that transmit stimuli from different organs in relation to movement and balance

on blood and lymph circulation

– at the level of venous circulation, it increases circulation speed and improves blood circulation dynamics

-at the level of capillary circulation generates direct and indirect effects stimulating vasomotricity

-Arterial circulation undergoes an adaptation process causing increased blood flow

– lymphatic circulation is increased approximately 25 times

– mobilization of blood mass, activation of stagnant peripheral blood volumes, acceleration of blood circulation and capillary vasodilation, drainage and resorption with secondary improvement of cellular trophicity is achieved.

on the nervous system

-local neuronal extension reflex (axon) with secondary vasodilation occurs;

-appear segmental and non-segmental reflexes, thus influencing the viscera;

-through a suprasegmental transmission mechanism at the subcortical and cortical level, relaxing and sedative effects occur

on deep tissue and organs

by massaging the abdominal wall, direct mechanical effects occur with regulation of secretion, excretion and motility of the viscera

on the skin

– influences improved circulation and metabolism, contributes to thermoregulation

– increases joint mobility and skin sensitivity threshold,

– facilitates increased secretion of sweat glands and respiratory exchanges in the skin

– favours the penetration of fatty substances;

– help maintain the balance between deep and superficial circulation,

– very effective in skin desquamation and growth of young cells;

– influences the deep organs through reflex zones

on subcutaneous cellular tissue

– has reflex influences on blood and lymph circulation, metabolic changes and excretion, hormonal functions and

neurovegetative reactions, as well as on the deeper organs

– influences the development of tone and resistance of the elements that have a role in fixing and protecting the internal organs;

– helps to restore elasticity, promoting body movements,

– contributes to the resorption and removal of fat deposits

-facilitates nutrient exchange by increasing blood supply and more efficient evacuation of waste;
