Massage and the
Element
of
Touch!
A Sensitive Massage Therapist’s Touch is an Important
and Essential Element in a therapeutic
relationship for the person receiving a massage. Most importantly, the receiver
of massage therapy can have a better understanding of what areas of their body
seem to be benefiting from more or less pressure or no pressure at all. Feedback
from the receiver is a vital component in helping the massage therapist meet
your needs.
Massage
Therapy is Manipulation of Soft Tissues of the Body to
normalize those tissues. It consists of using hands, forearms, elbows, or feet
to hold or cause movement of the body, tissues, and body fluids within. The
basic idea of massage therapy is to aid or enhance the body’s natural healing
abilities.
While
Touch is the Medium of Massage, Touch is Not Used Solely in a Mechanical Way.
There is a vital touch sensitivity component involved as
well. Massage therapists must use touch with optimal sensitivity for each
person. Sensitive touch allows the massage therapist to receive a great bit of
useful information about muscle tension, soft-tissue issues and other issues as
well. Touch is also used as a form of communication, to convey a sense of
caring, calming and relaxation.
Touch Therapy - In
our Fast-paced and Modern Society,
Touching can be infrequent and incidental.
Living in a touch deprived society with high stress jobs may have adverse
effects on our health and well-being. A great deal of research suggests physical
touch and massage can affect our body's nervous system, immune system and our
hormones in a positive way, allowing us to better deal with stressful
situations.
Several
Massage Sessions May be Required for a Massage Therapist and Receiver to
better understand the receiver's needs, while at the same time allowing the
receiver to gain a comfort level that allows them to relax and receive the most
benefits from massage.
No attempt to practice medicine is being made and none
should be construed. Decisions regarding health should be made in conjunction
with the advice of a competent health care practitioner.
