The Right Massage can make the Difference
Your legs are screaming from too many squats. Your shoulders ache from sitting all day in an office chair. A massage is clearly in order, but which one to choose? Brunswick Health’s team of massage therapists have all the answers you need!
Massages are either relaxing or therapeutic. Sometimes relaxation and therapy work together, but generally therapeutic massage is for specific problems. Your massage therapist is fully trained and will ask you what areas need work and what the problem is. From there, they can help you with the style of massage that is best suited for you.
Different Types of Massage
Here are some popular massage techniques that Brunswick Health’s massage therapists can help you with:
Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is a soothing and peaceful massage leaving you feeling replenished and relaxed. It is a light massage that penetrates superficial muscles. It is generally the most gentle and is great for relaxation
Sports Massage
Sports massage involves the use of specific methods, such as trigger point and muscle energy techniques to promote the health and wellbeing of an athlete or individual of specific injuries or areas of pain
Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage is a technique that aims to encourage wellness by using deeper massage with specific techniques to stretch or relax the individual muscles groups that require work. It is a mixture of soft and deep tissue strokes.
Deep Tissue Massage
Like a Swedish massage, deep tissue massages are done with kneading and long strokes, but the pressure is generally more intense. This type of massage is aimed at the deeper muscle layers to help with more extreme or chronic muscle pain.
