Benefits of Therapeutic Massage – Our Monthly Tip for Industrial Athletes
Therapeutic massage is the mobilization of soft tissue to return the body to normal functioning, improve productivity and promote overall well-being. Types of massage include neuromuscular, myofascial, trigger point and sports.
Tips
- Identify your reasons for getting a therapeutic massage, for example, feeling anxious, frequent headaches, joint pain, sore muscles or trouble sleeping.
- Ask a trained professional which type of massage will provide the greatest benefit for your condition and request a referral to a qualified massage therapist, if needed.
- Note how you feel before and after massage. For instance, you may notice pain relief, improved range of motion, lower blood pressure and/or better sleep quality.
