If you’ve been experiencing an ever increasing back pain or general discomfort in your body while pregnant, instead of suffering alone at home in silence, there is something you can do to truly ease the painful effects  pregnancy is having on your body. Pre-natal pregnancy massage aims to reduce the discomfort and pain caused by the constant growth of the baby and resultant changes in weight distribution around the mother’s body. This can lead to aching muscles, joint stiffness and cramps as well as stress and insomnia.

The pregnancy massage therapist aims to stimulate muscle and circulatory function using unique pressure stroking movements. This method reduces swelling caused by poor circulation and pressure on blood vessels from the heavy uterus. By increasing blood circulation, the oxygen and nutrients present in blood cells also benefit both mother and foetus. Pregnancy massage releases tension and lower back pain is greatly reduced. Hormonal changes benefit from pregnancy massage as the relaxation process relieves any anxiety or depression. Post-natal massage aims to restore the elasticity of stretched skin and muscles to their pre-pregnancy state while also helping to aid relaxation and increase energy levels.

Massages truly allow you to let yourself go as you lie back and unwind for a whole hour as your body is given some special love and attention. Now, wouldn’t it be even more amazing to know that something that feels so good is also beneficial to the body? Research has shown that massage can have a positive effect on your muscle-building capabilities and fitness levels, which in turn increases your capacity to control or loose weight. Healthy strong muscles burn calories and give you the freedom to participate in all sorts of activities that can help you burn excess calories and improve your overall fitness and wellbeing.

Massage is thought to be able to burst the fat capsule in subcutaneous tissue so that the fat exudes and becomes absorbed. In this way, combined with proper nutrition and exercise, massage may actually help in weight loss. Regular massage is just as important as regular workouts and correct nutrition in any comprehensive fitness and weight loss program, which is great news for those of us who thought that exercising and loosing weight was all hard work!

Certain massages have been shown to improve the body’s circulation and the supply of body building foods to the muscles. The practice of weight loss massages (especially the deep muscle massage) increase the exchange of substances between the blood, muscle and tissue cells, which multiplies tissue metabolism. When muscles are exercised and then combined with massage sessions, important nutrients must be delivered to them so that they can recover and redevelop themselves.

The massage technique of deep massage maximizes the supply of these nutrients and vital oxygen through increased blood flow and circulation, which helps the muscles to grow and at the same time, burns calories. Weight loss massages improve your muscles and their flexibility. This permits the muscles to maintain maximum power and performance while active, and burn the maximum number of calories in the process. This muscle improvement in activity and flexibility also lowers muscle soreness during periods of recovery and muscle repair. Having a wide scope of motion and maximum muscle flexibility also brings down the danger of having injuries during exercise which can severely limit muscle action, activity, exercise and weight loss progress.

Massage is a manual manipulation of the body’s soft tissue for the purpose of stimulating circulation and promoting relaxation. It has been used in many world cultures for more than 4,000 years. Massage allows you a quiet time to focus on yourself and become more connected to your body. Massage is generally used for the reduction of stress and pain and has been shown to boost the immune system as well. Massage can help with the following: stress reduction, anxiety, relaxation, muscle aches and pains, sleep problems, depression and a better immune system function.

There are a number of different types of therapeutic massage which are all primarily used for relaxation. Oil is used and applied with light strokes. Deep Tissue massage is a goal-oriented massage. The therapist for this type of massage may use his/her forearms, elbows or thumbs to apply pressure. Deep tissue work can be used in conjunction with Swedish massage to loosen the muscles in a specific area, or by itself for a mini-target session. Myofascial massage is the slowest type of massage and used to relieve aches and pains.
