For centuries, Ayurvedic massage was used as an effective complementary therapy for all age groups and has proven to be safe, gentle and extremely effective in many cases. Ayurvedic massage is usually a customized therapeutic treatment comprising essential oils, usually organic-based, with time-tested and standard kneading and strokes that suit each person’s individual needs. Massage therapy is performed with the intent of restoring and maintaining natural balance in a body that may be either too rigid or too soft. Because of This, Ayurvedic massage should be undertaken after taking the following precautions:
In case of an illness or injury, self-massage can help to manage and alleviate pain and tenderness, speeding recovery. A skilled massage therapist will always know when to use soothing massage methods and when to opt for vigorous rubbing. By learning to apply and remove pressure properly, a client can keep his or her lymphatic system healthy and prevent further injury. The benefits of a well-taken self-massage include:
O A hot water bottle or electric massage heaters are very beneficial to relieve sore and achy muscles. Take a hot shower or bath before starting the massage oil treatment to prepare your body for the process. Don’t take more than two or three minutes between warm water sessions. Following the initial hot water break, continue with soothing and long stretches.
O Using Ayurvedic massage oils like Thyme, Lavender, Peppermint and Chamomile can help alleviate both allergies and asthma as well as encourage a sense of well-being. Peppermint is particularly helpful in decreasing respiratory symptoms associated with colds and influenza. Lavender oils possess similar benefits to Thyme oils by stimulating the circulatory system. Both can help to reduce congestion and other symptoms of congestion.
O As with any kind of massage, complete thorough relaxation of the entire body is required. While relaxing, be sure to do not perform any tasks that could strain the shoulders or neck or worsen any condition. Lying on your back, or while propped up on pillows with legs propped up on a chair, will allow for optimum massage treatment. Once fully rested, begin the massage treatment.
O Start the massage by employing a light but effective rubbing pressure to the scalp using fingertips, thumbs, palms, and forearms. The professional’s palms should be small and rounded. Start in a circular motion, moving upward towards the crown and then backwards. Move downward again and replicate in circular patterns to relax the whole body. Begin each session by applying just enough pressure to thoroughly loosen the knots in the skin.
O The therapist should always start by applying a mild but effective coating of essential oils to prepare the body for a full body massage. Essential oils are plant-based oils like lavender, chamomile, lavender, lavender and marjoram. In addition to the oils, the carrier oil chosen should also be selected carefully. The carrier oil helps reduce the effects of heat during massage, so it’s important to pick a lubricant that is both compatible with the massage recipient and is also safe to apply during the massage. Some of the more popular oils used as a carrier oil include almond oil, coconut oil, sweet almond oil, avocado oil and peach oil.
Massage can be a highly effective way to relieve stress and to strengthen the muscles, tissues and ligaments. When performed correctly, a normal massage regimen can help relax the mind and increase attention and concentration. For the best results, follow a normal Prenatal massage (to Xcjs 11) routine by scheduling routine massage appointments to receive superior self-massage and prevent the development of chronic pain conditions.
