Complementary massage therapies have become increasingly popular we at BTS, our complementary therapies to help relieve stress and tension, to help relaxation and to promote a sense of well being.
Massage is the practice of applying pressure or vibration to the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and joints. A form of therapy, massage can be applied to parts of the body or successively to the whole body, to heal injury, relieve psychological stress, manage pain, improve circulation and relieve tension. Where massage is used for its physical and psychological benefits, it may be termed "therapeutic massage therapy" or manipulative therapy.
In commercial settings, massage techniques involve the client being treated lying down on a massage table or in a massage chair, or on a mattress on the floor. Although the massage subject is generally unclothed, the body is "draped" with towels or sheets. This also helps keep the client warm.
The definition of massage is the scientific and systematic manipulation of soft tissue. However, massage is both a science and an art form. It really blends thinking and feeling.
Besides being fun and relaxing, massage is one of the oldest healing art forms. Primarily because it works and it's something everyone can do and benefit from.
