How a Massage Treatment Flows

Picture

​For you first appointment, you’ll be warmly greeted by your therapist who will chat with you about any specific issues you would like help with, any relevant health history and what you like most in a massage.  This doesn’t take long as we know you’ll be keen to get started on your massage.

The therapist will leave the room to let you get ready in private.  Most massages usually start with you lying face-down on the table.
Your therapist will apply any massage creams or oils and then will start to warm up your muscles.  You’ll start to feel your muscles release immediately and your tension begin to melt away.

Your therapist ‘sees with their fingers’, which means they are feeling for any problems.  And if they find a problem, they’ll then work on reducing or eliminating it.

We’ll concentrate on the areas you want help with and also ensure you enjoy your massage too.

As your session progresses, you feel warm and you enjoy the relaxing music, you’ll drift deeper and deeper into a totally tension-free relaxed state.

And when your session is finished, you’ll need to make that little journey back to reality.  Back to the present. 

You may have walked in, but our goal is to see you float out.

The Benefits of Massage

​There are so many benefits of regular massage.
  • Stress relief and deep relaxation.  We are helping to train your muscles to stay more relaxed, even during times of high stress.
  • Reduced tension – especially in the areas you store it (typically neck and shoulders).
  • Pain relief.
  • Increased range of motion of muscle and joints.
  • Increased endorphin (your natural ‘feel good’ hormone) production.
  • Substantially improved blood circulation.
  • Toxin elimination by stimulating your lymphatic system.
  • Faster recovery times from exercise and lactic acid build up.
  • Faster injury recovery times through improved blood flow.
  • Improved skin tone.

The Different Types of Massage Moonee Ponds

There are many different branches of massage including Swedish, shiatsu, thai, Chinese, tui na, lomi lomi and many more.  In fact, most cultures have developed their own particular form or style of massage. 

But many therapists look at the ultimate aim of the massage therapy and apply different techniques from the different types of massage to achieve the best result. The ultimate aim of the massage tends to fall into remedial, sports or relaxation.

Remedial Massage

This is massage done for therapeutic reasons.  It is to address pain, injury or movement issues.  It can involve a wide range of massage techniques to improve blood flow, reduce tension, remove scar tissue, stretch muscles, ligaments and tendons.  Remedial massage is great for addressing issues and then keeping them away through regular sessions.

Sports Massage

Usually involves deep tissue work to help fatigued and overworked muscles to recover faster by moving the blood and facilitating better lymphatic drainage to clear lactic acid and toxins from the muscles.  Regular sports massage can also help prevent injury.

Relaxation Massage

We all know how relaxed we feel after a great relaxation massage! 

This form of massage is to relieve stress and tension and create an overall feeling of calm.  The healing touch of the therapist along with the strong natural feel-good hormone release of endorphins creates a deep relaxation we jut cannot get any other way. 

Modern living and the build up of stress has wide-reaching health implications, so regular relaxation massage is an important part of your health regime.
​

Even though there are specific objectives, we usually find that we deliver a combination of these in any one massage session.

Therapist Qualifications

You can certainly go to any shopping centre and get a massage.  These massages are usually provided by therapists with very little training.  They are often a quick fix, done on the spur of the moment and mostly focus around the relief of neck and shoulder tension from the day. Very few of them will have formal qualifications in massage therapy. 

The benefit of getting a massage from a qualified therapist is that it is a more holistic and detailed approach to addressing your concerns.  Knowing the anatomy of your body, how muscles in one part of your body will affect those in another, what techniques to use, what pressure to apply and what frequency you need all helps you get a better result out of the massage you receive.

And interestingly, the price is often not much different.
