The relaxing massage is a total or partial body treatment in which we use our hands to perform pressure movements on the skin. The purpose of this gentle pressure on key parts of the body is to relax the muscles and thus provide well-being. We work the soft muscular tissues of the body. This achieves great immediate relief that lasts for weeks.

Benefits of a relaxing massage

There are many benefits that you can get from a relaxing massage at a muscular and mental level:

  1. Improved circulation. Gentle movements that knead the skin and key points improve the flow of peripheral blood circulation, bringing fresh blood to the area. This provides better local nutrition and accelerates the elimination of toxins and wastes. This, in turn, will improve recovery of soft tissue injuries locally and improve skin tone.
  2. Reduction of muscle tension. Perhaps this is the main objective when looking for a relaxing massage in Moraira. Muscle tension may be due to a postural problem. That is, surely if you spend many hours sitting in the office, or have an incorrect posture for hours, the muscles will stiffen and in the medium or long term you will feel pain. This pain can be felt in the neck, upper back or lower back. Gentle but firm pressure on specific muscles of the shoulders, neck, back, for example, will help to disperse accumulated tension in this area. Posture problems are cumulative and massage therapy is one of the best ways to reduce pain. Muscle fatigue caused by excessive exercise can also be treated. The effects of the massaging movements on the muscle fibers help disperse lactic acid buildup. This reduces fatigue and the well-known stiffness. This will reduce the recovery time.
  3. Relieves muscle pain. Our massage therapists are trained to treat and isolate each muscle or muscle group. In other words, by treating the muscles in isolation, we can treat localized pain. As the different layers of the musculature are stimulated and the extremities of the body are thoroughly treated, the muscle fibers begin to open more freely and relax. This can improve localized inflammation, as well as reduce fatigue, pain and increase energy levels.
  4. Relieves anxiety and depression. Although there seems to be no relation, relaxing massages also work the mind. This occurs because muscle relief, especially in the upper back, relieves muscle tension. Stress, anxiety and other mental problems affect the body. Above all, it accumulates over the scapula. By massaging these points, stress and contractions are stress. It has also been proven to have analgesic effects that soothe some of the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
  5. Improves sleep. As the name implies, this treatment relaxes and provides stress relief. This helps you fall asleep faster, sleep more soundly and be less disturbed during sleep.
  6. Improved immunity. Numerous studies have shown a direct relationship between relaxing massages and increased body immunity. By reducing stress hormones and lowering blood pressure, your body can better direct its immune response to ward off disease or infection more effectively.
