Benefits of massage<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Massage is the oldest and best natural method of healing and maintaining health, and it relaxes the whole body and mind. Also, the value of massage is in direct human touch. Massage relaxes and reduces spasms of tense muscles, prevents cartilage deformation, improves metabolic processes in muscles, helps to relieve the pressure on a pinched nerve and corrects spinal alignment. Consequently, massages are useful primarily from a medical point of view. It is not necessary to decide on a massage because of pain, you can come for a massage in order to rest from a hard day and accumulate positive energy, so a classic massage of the whole body has numerous effects on the overall health of a person. Massage is often used as a preventive measure for the development of osteochondrosis and radiculitis for people with a sedentary lifestyle, as well as for people whose spine is exposed to excessive loads. The benefits of massage are obvious: it helps to fully relax the whole body after work; relieves stress and ensures relaxation, improves mood, restores peace of mind. Classic massage is a pleasant and useful procedure that can be done at any time. Regular classic massage of the whole body is one of the best ways to prevent diseases caused by stress or injuries. Relaxing anti-stress massage includes a massage of the whole body with an emphasis on the neck and upper back, because this is where the consequences of stress are most often manifested in the form of tension. The massage touches are gentle but still strong enough to lead to complete relaxation of the body. The massage is performed with natural, high-quality oil that has a particularly beneficial effect on stress, the skin and the general feeling of the whole body. During the massage and therapy, if necessary, medical\/sports creams are used against pain and inflamed soft tissues. Pure natural, raw, cold-pressed 100% coconut oil with a mild smell and taste of coconut, also is used during massages. It is not hydrogenated, refined or coloured. It is obtained and processed by hand on traditional family farms in Ivory Coast.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”]

\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]What is acupressure? Acupressure is used in Chinese medicine and is part of tuina, that is, therapeutic or medical massage. In this therapeutic method, the acupuncturist presses on areas or points where chi or vital energy is blocked. This is a very good preventive method because in Chinese medicine it is considered that stagnant energy, if not released, causes the emergence of many diseases, from minor problems, such as insomnia or headaches, to the most severe ones, such as cancer. The combination of acupuncture and acupressure additionally accelerates the treatment because in this way we maintain the flow of energy.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]The human spine is exposed to heavy loads; in modern life, most people have a passive sedentary lifestyle, which has a negative effect on the entire organism. The result is poor posture and pain in different parts of the spine: neck, lower back, chest. Therefore, spinal massage will be useful to everyone who feels acute mechanical back pain, and even just fatigue.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n\tReflex therapy \u2013 Plantar fasciitis<\/span>\n<\/h5>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]It is an energy massage based on the knowledge that every part of the body reacts to a certain point on the feet and that by pressing on the reflex points the whole body can relax and balance. Reflexotherapy If there are specific conditions or problems that the therapist notices during the first session, several consecutive therapies (4-6 therapies) are recommended. Plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the fibrous tissue of the arch of the foot) is manifested by pain in the foot in the area of the heel. Overstretching or overuse of this ligament is the most common cause of heel pain in adults. It is felt as a pain on the inner part of the heel, but it can spread further along the foot in the direction of the growth of the fascia. In injured persons, the plantar fascia is expanded and is between 6 and 10 mm in size, while in healthy persons it is between 2 and 4 mm. The pain is usually worst in the morning, but as the condition worsens, it starts to intensify during daily activities. It can affect only one foot or both at the same time.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]Sports massage serves to prepare and maintain physical fitness, improve psychophysical condition, and prevent and remedy possible injuries. The goal of the therapy is to establish normal and painless movement and coordination and to restore the functional state before the injury.

\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]The IASTM technique (short for Instrument-Assisted Soft-Tissue Mobilization) is an innovative therapeutic approach that involves static and dynamic soft tissue manipulation with specialized clinical equipment, aiming to treat soft tissue restrictions. This technique is used on specific points of soft tissue adhesions, with the aim of relaxing the tissue and improving the individual’s functionality with several therapeutic treatments. IASTM tools used with certain techniques can relax \u2013 reduce scarring, adhesions and fascial stiffness, increase localized perfusion and reduce muscle tone and muscle pain.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n\tVacuum therapy or cupping<\/span>\n<\/h5>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]Vacuum therapy is one of the best ways to relieve body stiffness and pain. With the help of a vacuum, the silicone cups draw toxins and cellular waste from the deep tissues into the epidermis,where they are removed from the body by normal blood and lymph circulation. The vacuum also promotes an increased flow of blood, lymph fluid and oxygen to the areas in which a local suction is created. This greatly speeds up healing and reduces pain. Pain is often the result of stagnation of blood and body fluids that have accumulated in our body. Think of the amount of poisons we encounter every day: pesticides, solvents, cleaning agents, chemicals, plastics, cigarette smoke and polluted air, heavy metals and antibiotics (in fish and meat). Removing these toxins with the help of vacuum therapy can have an extremely beneficial effect on your health.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n\tFace and neck massage \u2013 Therapeutic significance and beauty<\/span>\n<\/h5>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]Facial massage is extremely effective in rejuvenating the face because it affects more than fifty muscles on the face and neck. It has positive effects on your skin because it accelerates blood circulation, increases blood flow, feeds your cells with oxygen and helps in tissue regeneration. Massage became so popular that they started using it not only for the face, but also for the d\u00e9colletage. In addition, such procedures prevent the formation of wrinkles in the future. The secret of the miraculous effect is that the facial muscle masseur uses a massage device made of natural material – jade, and acts on the fundamental cause of skin aging. By manipulating the tissue, the masseur helps maintain healthy skin.[\/vc_column_text]\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”64px”]
