What is massage?
A massage is a group of therapeutic healing techniques that involve placing manual pressure on your skin and tissues. Your massage therapist uses their hands to knead your tissues, which stimulates the muscles, tendons, and fascia.
One interesting advantage of massage therapy over other therapeutic practices is that it improves both physical and psychological well-being. The team at Florida Lakes Spa might recommend massage as part of your treatment for:
- High blood pressure
- Chronic back and neck pain
- Stress
- Soft tissue injuries
- Insomnia
- Nerve pain
There are many common massage therapy techniques, including some specifically for lymphatic flow, stress relief, and injury rehabilitation. The team at Florida Lakes Spa informs you of the technique they’ll use in your treatment.
