The
purpose of massage is to produce therapeutic
effects on the tissues of the nervous, muscular,
and respiratory systems of the body and
the local and general circulation of the
blood and lymphatic systems.
We offer Swedish and deep tissue massage
here at Genesis Medical Aesthetics.
Swedish massage is a type of massage that
involves the use of hands, forearms or elbows
to manipulate the superficial layers of
the muscles to improve mental and physical
health. Active or passive movement of the
joints may also be part of the massage.
The benefits of Swedish massage include
increased blood circulation, mental and
physical relaxation, decreased stress and
muscle tension, and improved range of motion.
Deep tissue massage is a type of massage
that focuses work that is anatomically specific
and an artful mastery of massage technique.
Deep tissue address all the layers of the
body in a way that has a deep affect with
minimal effort. It is about going to the
layer of tissue where the tension is held
and facilitating a release in the layer.
The benefits of Deep tissue massage are
very similar to Swedish massage benefits
in improving blood circulation as well as
lymphatic circulation, mental and physical
relaxation, decreased stress an muscle tension,
and improved range of motion. |
