- Energy Massage
This approach
asserts that energy fields exist everywhere in nature, and that the
flow and balance of this energy in the human body is the underlying
foundation for health. Stress, tension, pain, inflexible thinking
and environmental stimuli are among many factors that can contribute
to the restriction of this energy flow in the human body. According
to many therapists, such energy blocks can be released by the use
of four therapeutic methods: bodywork, diet, exercise and self awareness.
Energy work includes gentle body manipulation and holding pressure
points (poles) as well as counseling on developing positive thoughts
and attitudes, understanding the principles of food combining and
easy exercises to increase energy flow.
- Deep Tissue
Therapeutic Massage
This approach
is used to release chronic patterns of muscular tension using slow
strokes, direct pressure, or friction. Often the movements are directed
against the grain of the muscles (cross-fiber) using the fingers,
thumbs, or elbows. This is applied with greater pressure and at deeper
levels than Swedish massage and that is why it is called deep tissue.
It is also more specific. For example, in the case of someone with
a sore shoulder, the practitioner may focus on the trapezius and the
rhomboid underneath, trying to work in all layers of muscle that might
be involved. Deep tissue massage lends itself to being more focused
on a problem area.
- Swedish
Massage
This is a traditional technique
designed primarily to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against
deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the
flow of blood returning to the heart. Swedish massage can relax muscles,
increase circulation, remove metabolic waste products, help the recipient
obtain a feeling of connectedness, a better awareness of the body
and the way they use and position it. It improves circulation without
increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons, keeping
them supple. Swedish Massage also stimulates the skin and nervous
system while at the same time reduce emotional and physical stress.
It is often recommended as part of a regular program for stress management.
It also has specific clinical uses in a medical or remedial therapy.
