Massage your way to fitness
With all the hustle and bustle associated in our chaotic lifestyles today, it can be difficult to keep some time aside for yourself and get rid of those aching muscles. A good massage is truly a treat and offers many health benefits and one must not shy away from indulging in a refreshing spa treatment to revitalise your body and mind.
Any Deep Tissue massage helps in toning and weight loss. Sports Massage, Stone Therapy or the Thai Massage are ideal treatments to be done after a strenuous work-out as they relieve the tight and taut muscles leaving you relaxed.
If followed keeping the prescribed frequency in mind the results can be seen over four months. The frequency of massages depends on an individual’s lifestyle and their personal requirements. If massages are being done to relieve stress and heal a tired body once a week is ideal. If you are seeking a proper treatment through massage like weight loss or toning post-pregnancy then a treatment done twice a week is recommended.
A therapeutic massage fosters faster healing of strained muscles, sprained ligaments, excessive scar tissue and reduces muscle spasms. Added to this it also improves blood circulation and movement of lymph fluids. For those constantly stressed mentally, it relieves tension related headaches and effects of eye strain.
