Benefits of Back Massage Therapy
Massaging causes the muscles to become more relaxed which in turn increases their
range of motion. This is an enormous benefit when tension of the muscles causes a
restriction in movement. Relaxed muscles also help to reduce insomnia.
Improved blood supply to the muscles assists with the recovery of muscular soreness
from physical activity. Massage increases endorphin levels in the body. This is highly
beneficial as endorphins are the 'feel good' chemicals produced naturally in our bodies.
Heightened endorphin levels assist in dealing with chronic back pain.
Precautions to be taken
Take note that when receiving massage therapy for the back, the pressure applied
during the massage must evoke a response of relaxation in the muscles. If this does not
occur then the muscles may be inflamed possibly due to an acute injury of the muscle.
In this case massage therapy should be put off until the inflammation subsides and it
may be advised to consult an expert.
For best results, muscle spasms generally require massage treatments, commonly
spread over six weeks. Back massage techniques are highly effective in the treatment
of chronic back pain, however if the pain is severe it is recommended to first undergo a
complete medical check-up prior to beginning a program of back massage therapy.
