Be Rejuvenated with Deep Tissue Massage and Steam or Sauna Baths

Deep tissue massage or deep muscle therapy aims to relax and realign the inner layers of the muscles and connective tissues. This particular method of massage therapy is especially beneficial to athletes who are always involved in heavy physical exertion and people who feel long term and consistent pain and tension in the muscles.

 

How does deep tissue massage work?

When you feel consistent muscle pain and tension, there is usually adhesion in the muscle fibers, ligaments or tendons. Adhesions block blood flow through the muscle, causing inflammation, pain and restricted movement. Deep tissue massage solves this problem by physically loosening and removing the adhesions through deep pressure and friction to eliminate the source of the pain and bring back normal muscle movement.

Deep tissue massage gives limited relaxation

Unlike other massage therapy types that provide high levels of relaxation to recipients, deep tissue massage is focused more on relief of specific symptoms such as long term pain, low mobility, muscle tension or spasms and muscle discomfort. During the massage session itself, it is possible to feel some discomfort and pain. Massage therapists apply deep pressure by using their forearms, elbows, hands, fingertips and knuckles throughout the tense muscle areas. The stiffness and pain after the session will disappear in a day or two. Wesley Chapel, FL massage centers provide well-trained massage therapists to provide you with quality healthcare; so you do not have anything to worry about.

Compliment with steam or sauna bath to optimize relaxation

This is where steam sauna baths can be very helpful because it compensates by providing extreme relaxation that a person might not feel with deep tissue massage. Saunas give out dry inside a wooden paneled room. Heated rocks radiate heat throughout the room. Steam rooms on the other hand provide moist heat through steam pumped inside the room. Both saunas and steam rooms make you sweat and feel warm and relaxed.

After a deep tissue massage session, you can always go and relax in either a sauna or steam room but always remember to rehydrate because the body will lose fluids during a massage therapy session and will lose more in a sauna or steam bath. It is also recommended that you consult your healthcare provider advice. Wesley chapel, FL offers hundreds of massage centers that provide a variety of massage therapies depending on your condition.
