What Is Relaxation Massage?

Relaxation massage makes use of massage manipulations to achieve an overall body state of relaxation. With a regular massage therapy you will most likely reach a good level of relaxation, but in relaxation massage the primary goal is precisely that, a complete relaxation of the entire body. Leading you to relax is the goal here, therefore it is a much more complete type of massage for those seeking relaxation rather than health benefits.

Relaxation massage is indeed a very passive form of therapy. You lie down on the massage table and the therapist will do everything to help you calm down and relax. The idea is to relax both mind and body as they are interconnected and a relaxed mind will make it easier to relax your tense muscles, and relaxed muscles will contribute to a faster relaxation of your mind where your thoughts can lead you nowhere or to pleasant thoughts and feelings.

Relaxation massage session is longer than regular massage and you will be subjected to different manual strokes, long strokes, skin rolling, muscle rolling, rhythmic tapping, circular movements, long soft strokes, finger pressure, and many more that the therapist may be fond of using depending on his/her own style and background. For obtaining a proper relaxation massage and to avoid any kind of consequences you must remember to drink plenty of water before the session and avoid eating too much, this could make you feel uncomfortable during the session. Always bear in mind that relaxation massage is intended to give you a pleasant experience and overall health benefits.
