Try This! A Unique Way to Massage Your Back Pain.
Using massage to relieve chronic pain can have a wide range of beneficial effects. Some of these include:
1. Massage helps to relieve pain by increasing blood circulation, interrupting the pain cycle and releasing endorphins.
2. Massage helps to decrease tension in the muscles. Muscles often tighten up around painful areas to protect them. Tight muscles can put pressure on nerves, causing numbness, tingling and pain. Massage increases the blood flow, relaxing the muscles therefore decreasing tension. Once tension is decreased pain is reduced.
3. Massage also helps to increase range of movement. by using a variety of techniques to stretch and loosen muscles and connective tissues. Massage stretches tight muscles, releasing trigger points and restoring the body’s ability to move more easily.
4. Massage for chronic pain can also help improve recovery.
