Classic
massage
Indications
Muscle pain
and tensions
Classic massage is particularly effective in relieving muscle tension and pain. By kneading and rubbing the muscles, tension can be released and pain can be alleviated.
Stress relief
and relaxation
One of the main uses of classic massage is to relieve stress and promote relaxation. Gentle stroking and kneading reduces stress hormones such as cortisol and releases endorphins, promoting a feeling of relaxation and well-being.
Improving
blood circulation
A massage has a positive effect on blood circulation by stimulating blood circulation. This can improve the oxygen and nutrient supply to the muscles and promote the removal of metabolic products.
Improving mobility
Classic massage can help improve joint mobility by relieving muscle tension and increasing muscle flexibility. This can be particularly beneficial for people with limited mobility or stiff joints.
Athletic
performance
Athletes often use classic massage as part of their training program to promote post-workout recovery, reduce muscle soreness, and improve flexibility.
Classic massage, also known as Swedish massage, is one of the best-known and most widespread forms of massage. Developed in the 19th century by Swedish physician Per Henrik Ling, it is a fundamental technique that serves as the foundation for many other massage styles.
Techniques
Effleurage
This technique involves gently stroking the skin to warm and relax it. Using long, gentle movements with the hands or palms, the masseur loosens the muscles and promotes blood circulation. Effleurage is often used at the beginning and end of the massage.
Knead
(Petrisage)
Kneading involves gently kneading and squeezing muscles with your hands or fingers to relieve tension and improve blood circulation. This technique can help relieve deeper muscle tension and improve muscle flexibility.
Rub
(Friction)
This involves targeting tense areas using circular movements with the fingers or the heel of the hand. This technique can be particularly effective for releasing knots and tension in the muscles and promoting blood circulation.
Vibration
Through fine, trembling movements with the hands or fingers, deeper muscles can be loosened and relaxed. This technique is often used to relieve muscle tension and promote blood circulation.
