General Relaxation Massage Service & Benefits

General Relaxation Massage is one of the most basic and common massages performed in any massage therapy office. It is also commonly known
as Swedish Massage. A general relaxation massage is used to provide the client with muscle tension relief and stress reduction. It
will also enhance and improve circulation and lymph flow. Swedish massage techniques can also help with joint pain and range of motion.
A combination of massage strokes are used throughout this routine. Long gliding strokes help to increase the surface blood flow. Kneading
strokes will help loosen the muscle and ease muscle tension. Deep friction is used to help loosen those stubborn knots found in the
muscles. Stretching techniques are used to help increase the range of motion in the joints. Every technique is not used with every
general relaxation massage. Everybody is different and present different circumstances.
We use a moderate to firm pressure
during our General Relaxation Massage. If you don't like a lot of pressure during your massage, our Gentle Touch Massage may
better suit your needs. We also offer Deep Tissue Massage for those who want more pressure than what a relaxation massage offers.
At
Chattanooga Massage & Bodyworks we take the time to listen to our clients and provide them with a massage that will help each
individual. General Relaxation is one of our most requested styles of massage. We encourage a full body massage as most muscle pain
and tension is better relieved when ALL of the muscles are worked. You may feel pain in a certain area; this pain may be caused
by a group of tight muscles in another area of the body. This is why it is important to have the entire body massaged and not just
one or two specific areas. Although, if you want just a certain area worked, you might be better served with our Therapeutic Massage.
Rates:
1 hour/ $60 | 90 minutes/ $90
(A full body massage is recommended for a 90 minute long massage; to avoid over-working the muscles)
Benefits
of receiving a full body massage include (but are not limited to) the following:
It will reduce muscle tension and relieve the
knots in the muscles. It reduces stress in the mind and body. Mental stress can manifest itself in physical pain. You have probably
had neck or shoulder pain, did you realize that pain could be from mental stress? A general relaxation massage will not only reduce
the physical tension of stress, it can also help you relax; which will reduce your mental stress.
Sometimes it's just the human
touch that is needed to reduce stress, soothe anxiety, and alleviate the feelings of depression. A gentle form of relaxation
massage can help these issues.
Another benefit of this massage is that it will help improve your blood and lymph circulation.
Improved circulation is very beneficial for your over all health. It will help remove toxins in your body; which when removed will
help your organs function more proficiently. Your immune system will be improved, which will make you less susceptible to common ailments
like colds and flus. Another area that is greatly over-looked during a full body massage, and can benefit greatly from massage, is
breast tissue. Read more about the benefits of breast massage.
Muscle tension is reduced dramatically during a general relaxation
massage. It will help improve your range of motion, and reduce the aches and pains you are feeling. Keep in mind, if this is chronic
pain you have, just one massage won't fix your symptoms. It may take many massages, and of different styles. You may need to return
for a therapeutic or deep tissue massage to deal with these issues.
If you've always wanted to try a professional massage, or
just want to spend an hour or so being relaxed, a general relaxation massage is just the thing for you. It will reduce stress and
tension, help your circulatory system, ease aches and pains, and just make you feel good all over! Call us today for an appointment.
